Just looking for some advice regarding PWD having cash. I have sole POA and all their bills are paid by direct debit and the shopping is done online and delivered every week. They only use cash to pay the window cleaner, which is around £10 a month. They frequently lose their wallet and accuse people of stealing. For over a year now, they have been ok with having £10-20 in cash at any one time. Recently they went to the bank with another family member and drew out £100. The bank have advised me that the family member said "you want to draw out £100 don't you" and they confirmed they did. When the cash was handed over, the family member took it and said "I'll look after that for you". The next day the PWD had no money and was very confused about what had happened in the bank. Previously this family member had their PIN and access to their card and as a result the card was changed to a Chip & Signature card so the PWD would have to be present for any transactions. The PWD now wants another £100 cash but with no intended purchase in mind. I'm concerned that cash will "disappear" with nothing to show for it. A couple of years ago nearly £400 they had had gone whilst I was on holiday and PWD had no idea where it had gone and nothing to show if it had been spent on things. PWD has no insight into their finances. I don't want to stop them having cash but at the same time want to protect them from someone possibly taking advantage of them and their vulnerability. £100 isn't a lot of money, but if that was taken out regularly then it would soon mount up. Has anyone had experience of this and can give advice?
