Hi and welcome to the community 

Housing benefit no longer exists for new claimants if you need help with rent you need to claim the housing element of uc

If your housing benefit ended, you can't start a new claim if you're working age unless you're either living in supported or temporary housing.

Help with any rent is now paid as part of Universal Credit. Whether there's any entitlement will depend on your circumstances. If you live with a partner you claim as a couple. Use a benefits calculator to check entitlement.

No need to be sorry at all, you didn't do anything wrong.
