    Hi,

    This won't change anything at all. Nothing to worry about.

    Welcome to the community @dom1234 I can see OverlyAnxious has answered your question, but I just wanted to add that I've done a similar thing before by accident and it was all fine, didn't affect anything at all ☺️

    You should be fine. If you didn’t submit any new rent details and cancelled the change, Universal Credit won’t adjust your housing element. Leaving a journal message explaining it was accidental was the right thing to do. At most, a case manager might just note it or ask to confirm nothing changed it shouldn’t affect your rent payment. Just keep an eye on your journal in case they reply.
