Hi everyone, so I am due payment in a weeks time but signed on and it says "£0" is that because I've started doing some work with the agency? to which I added on my journal.

    Any earnings you receive will reduce your UC by 63% because at the moment you don't have the work allowance. Have you received any earnings during your assessment period? You can check your statement and it will tell you exactly what deductions you had.

    I didn't ask if you'd received a payment from UC. I asked if you'd received any earnings from working since you claimed Universal Credit.

    Have you received any earnings during your assessment period?
    Please have another look at your UC statement, it will tell you exactly what deductions you've had.
