Universal Credit Review Or a Invasion of My Privacy

In regards to these reviews, i spend most of my income via a credit card to build my credit rating / history, and i just pay my benefits onto it when i recieve them to clear my balance.

I have done the same thing for the last 4 years, but i was moved over to UC from ESA in January.

Is this going to cause issues for me if i'm selected for a review?

That's good to know, thanks for the reply

I was asked to provide more bank statements a couple of months ago. I asked the DWP if they were going to accept redacted bank statements, given what the ICO suggested/recommended to the DWP. The UCR team told me they haven’t received anything from the ICO. So I put in another formal complaint to the DWP demanding to know why they are lying to me, they have the letter from the ICO. I also asked who at the DWP spoke to the ICO & & agreed to look at it & why they are not considering the recommendation. I am awaiting the complaint response. In my complaint I also asked the DWP once again about the legislation 38(2) that they are using & told them to prove to me it’s not for health documentation. It is for health documentation for PIP claims/reviews. I reiterated it is a misuse of legislation. I’ll see what they say when they respond. I asked my MP to clarify the legislation with lawyers in the House of Commons. He sent my complaint to specialists in the HOC for me. Again I am just waiting for the response from them.

Thanks for explaining and taking the time to research and post it. I will definitely read it all and appreciate it very much (despite my flippant reply) 🙂.
