Hi I'm Steve and I received a UC migration letter a little while ago and I had no idea about this change. I'm on ESA and I've been given a deadline date of the 22/06 to apply for UC. As I said I had no idea this was happening what should I do.

Thanks Steve

you have to migrate. your ESA is going to end so the sooner you do it the better. i was refused because i have too much money. i didnt know that so im loosing a big chunk of my benefits. my payments upped as my condition worsened and now ive been penalised for that

Sorry to hear that you have been refused UC, I don't have much money so I'm hoping I'll be ok. I wish they didn't mess people about so much, it makes my mental health worse can't stop worrying until a decision has been made.m
