Can anyone advise? If I get basic UC of approx £317 plus the disability element of around £318 is that it? It's much lower than I'd have got if I wasn't in a full UC area and able to  claim ESA. Can this be right? After my mortgage and household bills I will have nothing left! Surely that can't be right? I'm 59 and have worked all my life.

    Hi @Theresa_G, and welcome!

    I've moved this post into our ask a benefits advisor category- hopefully they will be able to clarify this for you.
