At last I spoke to e s a on the phone they sent me a letter to say I am on contribution based e s a with support but it's now changing to New style e s a but on it it says I have to do a claimant commitment and if I don't they can stop my e s a there's nothing on my universal credit journal but I do get l c w r a with my universal credit anyhow speaking to e s a on the phone they said we automatically send out them letters so I have to ignore it I said well what about doing my claimant commitment she said I don't have to do one anyone else had a letter like this ? I am worried sick and on top that I am going to a family funeral today stressed out

    If they want you to do a claimant commitment an appointment will be sent out- usually via your UC Journal which I've always found confusing because ESA is separate.

    It's usually done by phone and is a very brief call, all you have to do is agree to keep them informed of any changes.
