Can you still get UC and ask your family for financial help ?

Do they get you a job or do you get your own.

It’s a scam they are the worst humans in this country no help and no care or emotions get rid of uc

Whoever thought of "Universal Credit" deserves a medal as this is much better than job seekers allowance! When i was on job seekers when i was 18, i only got a petty £75 fortnightly. where as an 18 year old nowadays on Universal Credit" would get roughly £300 fortnightly? what a difference! Had i ben on universal credit when i was 18 - 21, i would not only have not been evicted from my home but also would have been enjoying life a lot more than i did back then! my life was so depressing when i was 18 - 21 due to the government and what they deemed a single person needed to live on!

The government has always been wrong with their rule "if you want to make a claim for benefits, you need to be available for and actively seeking employment". Not to mention their old rule that if you fail to attend signing and/or have been signing on for a certain amount of weeks, then you'll have your benefit stopped! Or just be sent on another dead-end course! Not to mention, if you didnt except a job which you could clearly do, then, agaain, you'd have your benefit stopped! I created "Unity" on facebook a few years back with my public posts regarding the government and all their wrong doings. and what do ya know, they Introduced "Universal Credit" without the need to sign on. Im now 44 but was unfairly evicted from my home when i was 21 all because of the "governments Rules". i .e I use to forget to sign on quite a lot (i have a bad memory) and this would often create a gap in my claim and in turn a gab in my housing benefit. Dont get my wrong, i did have rent arrears but these arrears would be magnified by my benefit often being stopped. I had lived at my home with my mum since i was 4. my mum died when i was 15 (before i left school) and a few years later i was evicted for failure to pay rent that i shouldnt have even been paying as i was in receipt of benefits. i will never forgive the government for my losing my flat. After all, i was on roughly £75 every 2 weeks and was expected to pay roughly £10 rent. then water rates and gas and leccy and food!!! i could barely afford to smoke roll ups! All because of the governments Rule of what ages they deem you need to "live on" I'm from the UK and if other countries are benefiting from this "Universal Credit", then this is yet another example of the government still needing to learn a thing or two. They need to "look after their own" before they start helping support other countries! I'm now on much better money, still on benefits but better money... No doubt due to my age! i STILL cant believe that when i was 17 - 21 i was ONLY on £75 fortnight! no one can live on that!!! As for employment, it should be a choice! no one should have to work and we certainly shouldn't have our benefit stopped for not looking for work! we have a right to be "PROTECTED" by our government which is the point of the benefit system. some say the benefit system shouldnt be seen as an income but an "allowance" whilst on benefit until you find employment. We shouldn't have to work, its a choice! These job centres have signs up saying "helping you back to work" but they aren't helping people back to work if they still have stupid rules like the past! The best thing the government did was abolish "signing on". Because, i ALWAYS knew even when i was 17-21 that the government expecting us to sign on in order to receive benefits was nothing more than a "control thing". i always knew that we didn't even need to sign on in order to receive our benefits! they could post it automatically!. i use get a giro every fortnight. They aren't helping us back to work at all, they were forcing us to seek employment with the use of the "job search record" they would give us when we first made a claim! I researched tonight how much benefit i would be entitled to if i was 18 nowadays, and i was surprised to learn that it was just under £300 monthly! i wish i had been on £300 when i was 18! I only got £75 fortnightly (£150 monthly). Had i been on £300 monthly, i wouldnt have been evicted from home when i was 21! i lost everything! as all my belongings ended up in an empty dusty car garage because i had nowhere to put it! and if it wasnt for my sister who lived 2 bus rides away, i would have ended up on the street all because the government deemed i need to live on back then was £75 fortnightly plus i had bills to pay etc! I wanted to be a Counsellor from the age of 17 and wanted to work from home. I wanted to work! BUT, the only reason i didnt enrol on a course was due to my current at the time financial situation which made my life so depressing! At the age of 22 i was introduced to Pc's (computers) and later learnt what a webcam was and how to use it. what more, i learnt of "chatrooms" and instantly wanted to host my own webcam chatroom on my own website. But dont want to do a course as have done my fair share of I.T courses and just want to pay someone to build my website so i can work from home. I am currently on benefits and dont have to work but i want to work from home but need someone with the knowledge / know-how to build a website for me. Had i been on £300 monthly when i was 18 - 21, i'd have been more willing to enrol on a course to help get myself into a job i wanted! I currently live in Birmingham but come from Hayes, middlesex and would LOVE to move back to Hayes! P.S This is a prime example of the government being (was) the problem, NOT the unemployed! a guy having his money stopped for 6 months due to it being deemed that he hadn't done enough to look for work! << OMG what was he ment to live on for the next 6 months?! This is where A LOT of my rent arrears come from over a period of 4/5 years when i was 18 - 21 and semi often forgot to sign on (I had/have a very poor memory) or lost my benefit for whatever reason and in turn was evicted from my home ws i ws 21 and LOT EVERYTHING! as all my belongings were just shuved into storage! I still can't believe the 50p gas and electric meters were replaced with the con key and card! ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I don't have to work but i want to. but need to find someone who can build websites. as i want my own videochat room on my own website, as i want to work from home. I've wanted my own website about 2007! I don't just want A wesbite, i want a video chatroom where i can make money talking to people from all walks of life about their problems or whatever they want to talk about etc. I'd LOVE to know a secret millionaire who knew how to build websites as i'd pay him/her to build mine. i have all the website specs written out at the ready. But no idea how to actually build a website especially a video chat room website. I really can't wait to get started but have no one to help and i bet if you approached my local job centre, they'd try to send me on a web design course! which i do NOT want. I want to pay someone to build it for me. More to the point, if i approached my local job centre and told them about my wanting to work from home on my own website, whats the betting, they'd say... JC's: "We dont have any help for that" << they are meant to be there for help people who WANT to WORK!

Not liking the Work Capability Assessment form, you need 15 points to get awarded, and its worded unfairly like "can you use either arm to reach above your head" well yeh, i can, but thats totally avoiding the point that i cant use "reach" with my other arm, all the questions are like that, its total bs.

Get rid off uc it is shit 😒 why Don't they leave things as they are! All it does is put stress on people complicated 🤔

Ive just found out that those in legacy benefits being pushed over to uc will lose out on widowed parents allowance. Can anyone explain why?

I have had my child tax credits stopped because i got a migration notice and had no choice but to apply, the child tax credits which are for my nephews now they will go without the things they need, what has universal credit got to do with child tax credits and forcing people to go to work in my situation i live with my mum who has mouth cancer and needs my help for phonecalls or making appointments picking up medication ect and recently she had a biopsy that she has cancer in her cheek even though i have made it clear that i am not looking for work and not ready they still say that i am its not right or fair when i have to be there to support my mother through this difficult time, they just dont care and talk over you about your next appointment. I will be taking this further.

Tories out

CAB in UKRAINE COLOURS ...

I recieve pip and esa can i recieve universal credit help with my rent ?

45 years full national insurance and the DWP gave me nothing nothing..so when I need my money my money and you don't give it me when I need it..give me ALL MY NATIONAL INSURANCE BACK. £350,000.. YOU CANNOT GET UNIVERSAL CREDIT YOU CANNOT GET SICK PAY YOU CANNOT GET ANY MONEY..AND NO ONE TO HELP..HOW MANY TIMES DO YOU HAVE TO BE TOLD..MAYBE THERSA COFFEY WHO IMPLEMENTED ALL THIS CAN ANSWER THESE QUESTIONS..she's done a typical Thatcher.. slit our throats and got a better paid job.

You can claim it, buy you get 000000000

Clearly the old system was better if they cant even correctly give you what your entitled too, how can these people be trusted to help people find work when they cant do their own job properly

I was put on UC as a full time carer in 2018. I had rent arrears of £150 so my housing costs were paid direct from the start . 6 months later I had rent arrears of £6,000 ! I have paid of £2,000 for rent arrears via deductions . I have been living on £90 a week to run house and my costs as a carer . I have been food banks as well . I get battered with arrears from so called previous arrears I had no idea about . In 5 years I have paid £6,000 in total of arrears combined . I cannot survive and very stressed I cannot give up caring role as the person I care for will become extremely poorly

the uk government is legally bound by law , under the human rights act to protect the welfare of its citizens, with this in mind how can they legally impose sanctions upon people leaving them with no means to feed themselves, every uk citizen is entitled to this right from the day they are born in this country, so how can they make demands on you to get universal credit, they have to look out for your wellbeing by law, you are not bound by law to do anything to get Universal credit, so how can they tell you , you have to attend a mandatory meeting , and if you dont stop your only form of income

Universal credit is a ploy to erode sickness and disability benefits.

All these sanction rules are disgusting

Get rid of UC it don't work it's bullying

Another thing that is preventing people from work is these bloody CVS , it was so much easier to get a job without all these CVS

The job center are useless they just tick the box

I'm finding I'm better off on pip and universal credit rent gets paid can you help me figure it out I would like to get advice I'm free from council tax the trouble I like to work it's brain dead working it out can you help the job center are terrible they don't know what they are doing

I would like to have a long chat with Tom he might have a clever person on I t

All interviews can be accomplished by a social worker you must not speak at interviews but also follow the rules and where a suit to the job center

What happens if you hiv virus should you tell your company

Selo tape your mouth at interviews

When you go to the job center look the part say nothing salute and obey them at interviews say nothing at tall you have been told to come via the job center

All agency's are taking over the industry

If you are over fiffty don't do a pension scheme it will be with fuck all anyway

Job center is a load of wasted staff who do not have a clue

If your over fiffty just say off the system the pension system pointless paying in at fiffty three who will employ me

I get pip and universal credit together does it pay me to work will I be better off at fiffty three the job center does not have a clue they are badly advised at job centers they only allowed to tick boxes

Suppose me and wife have under 16k savings together - what is classed as low income per month. ? I'm self employed and wife works part time. do we qualify. I earn around 4k a month. do I qualify?

Leave it to the shawtrust

Uhm… uhmmm… uhmmm. Uhmmm😂😂😂😂😂

What I'm allowed to claim on universal credit

Just tell the council and you want be in arrears

Matthew Conroy in Hatfield has not had a job in twenty years he has no freinds and read books all day he is a reclusive
