You get the £650 because you are on UC.
You also get the £150 because you are PIP.
You will also get the £400 help with electricity through your supplier.
You will therefore get a total of £1,200 (plus the £150 through council tax bills earlier in the year).jude1967 said:.. there it's is in black and white people who get pip won.t get it

You're clearly reading all the wrong things or misunderstanding what you're reading. The criteria hasn't changed since the cost of living payments were announced. Please so the proper link posted above.
