    UC are doing millions of these checks, I went through one last year and lots of others on the forum have been through one.

    After you submit the information they are looking for, you will have a telephone interview.

    You'll be asked a series of scripted questions about other potential sources of money.

    Then questions about some of your banking transactions, which might not appear to make any sense.

    I myself (as capital was over £6k on paper) was then asked to submit individual bank statement pages showing my Cost of Living payments.

    Then I had a journal message saying my review was complete and my payments were correct.

    Ohh ok thankyou i dont hve capital over 6k so its just a review to ask about your money/income and stuff really?

    Do they go through your claim and your entitlement?

    Many thanks

    They are looking to make sure the payments are correct from a financial perspective, that they already know about all the money you have in savings and anything else like property you don't live in, premium bonds etc.
