No, do not add the £727 UC payment.

If you have £3100 in savings, and £100 in current account, on the 31st, that is £3200.

Is it the same for every month like start a fresh whatever I have left in bank add that to what I have in savings on the 31st of every month like when you get a new bank statement from bank it will add previous months left over and at end show you what is left am I correct xx

Yes, only add what you have in both accounts on 31st each month.

If you have online banking, it is easier to look at the balance on the day, instead of trying to work it out from bank statements.

UC want official statements, so documents that have your name & address on as well as opening & closing balances.
