Hi lovely ppl I have been notes on my journal but no one seems to understand what I’m on about . When I was just on esa I was getting deducted social fund loan . But then had change over and now get UC and ESA . When change over was going on my esa payments went to £306 but then down to £281.10 so I presumed back to deducting social fund loan . But now on this months statement UC says £25 is being deducted for social fund loan when I’m almost sure it’s already been taken from esa ! I’ve tried talking to ppl and leaving notes on journal but no one seems to be double checking this . So I don’t know if payments are right or it’s being taken from both esa and uc by mistake . I’ve left another note today on journal . Could this have possibly happened and mistake coz of cross over .im not exactly sure in a position to loose money tbf . Stressed to death 😩😩 thank you for reading . X

Hi, you are now on New Style ESA & UC.

The fortnightly payment for NS ESA is £281.10 with the UC deduction being £609.05. This is the monthly equivalent of a weekly benefit.

See this thread for information:

From what you've written, the loan is being deducted from UC only.

Ahhh so this IS right then so no payment is getting deducted from that side . I was confused as I had a payment of £306 then went to £281.10 so I was thinking maybe was getting deduction from there . It’s just confusing now getting different benefits I’m not used to it . Thank you . 🙏
