Corrections

Last updated: April 2026. We take corrections seriously and respond quickly.

If you've spotted an error on any page — an outdated rate, a mischaracterised rule, a broken source link, a benefit that's been reformed since we last checked — please let us know. We treat accessibility issues with the same priority as factual errors.

How to report

Email corrections@duetoyou.co.uk with:

  • The URL of the page.
  • The specific claim or figure you believe is wrong.
  • Where possible, a link to the primary source you're relying on.

For urgent issues — a figure that could mislead someone making a live claim — put URGENT in the subject line. We aim to assess urgent reports within one working day and routine reports within three.

What happens next

We verify against the primary source. If the page is wrong, we correct it, re-run our source-archival process, and update the lastUpdated stamp. Significant corrections are published in the log below with the date, the nature of the change, and the resolution.

If the page is right and we can show it, we reply with the citation rather than just closing the thread — every page is built to be checkable, and we'd rather show the receipts than argue.

What we can't do

We can't decide or intervene in individual claims. Only the authority responsible for a benefit (DWP, HMRC, Social Security Scotland, your local council, etc.) can. If you're disputing a personal decision, Citizens Advice, Turn2us, and the relevant tribunal process exist for exactly that purpose.

Public corrections log

A running record of substantive corrections we've made since launch. Minor typo fixes and routine rate-table refreshes are not logged here — they show up on the recent updates page instead.

  1. carers-allowance

    Reported: Carer’s Allowance earnings threshold on the Carer’s Allowance page showed £151/week, which pre-dated the April 2025 uplift.

    Resolution: Updated to £196/week (2025–26 rate), re-archived the DWP source, and audited every other carer’s page reference. Reader: Sam L., via email.

  2. council-tax-reduction

    Reported: Council Tax Reduction page implied the working-age scheme in England is set nationally. It is set by each billing authority.

    Resolution: Rewrote the paragraph to describe the Scotland / Wales national schemes vs England’s per-council schemes, and added a council-lookup link. Reader: anonymous.

  3. blue-badge

    Reported: Blue Badge guidance listed the Scotland fee as £20. Most Scottish councils charge £20 but Dundee and Highland charge up to £40.

    Resolution: Softened the fee line to “up to £20 in most councils, up to £40 in some,” and linked to mygov.scot for per-council confirmation.
