Im really confused my UC statement shows A deduction of £609 for my ESA yet i only get £280 a fortnight? Are they deduction to much? I don’t understand it thats all. Thank you

The deduction is correct.

ESA is a weekly benefit.

UC is a monthly benefit.

There are 4.3 weeks per month.

To convert a weekly benefit into a monthly you multiply the weekly amount by 52 then divide by 12.

140.55 X 52 = £7308.60

£7308.60 / 12= £609.05
