    @tinka1992 here are 2019 rates, If you have daily living needs, you may qualify for the daily living component. There are two rates: Standard £58.70 per week. Enhanced £87.65 per week.

    I created one of the campaign election videos for Labour, and Jeremy Corbyn,
    This is a new version of Emeli Sande, Hope "You Are Not Alone
    I highlighted everything that's wrong with this country from benefits, NHS, UC etc, but now we have to put up with the hate now that is the Tories.

    @tinka1992 that's the rate before April 2019? Now is £87.65. So if it hasn't gone up then I suggest you phone them. This is what 4 weekly works out at £350.60 and is paid 4 weekly in arrears.
