Hi @ChrisSCOPEhtfc94, I saw that you've got a lot to say about this topic, so I hope you don't mind that I've split your comments into a new discussion. That way other members who share your thoughts can find it and reply more easily 😊
It's good that you know how to keep things under control for yourself with your budgeting. I hope that when you do eventually move over you can make UC work well for you.
Fingers crossed there are more positives than negatives when it finally comes around, I'm sure there'll be a big adjustment but I hope it goes okay.

I can understand the fear @ChrisSCOPEhtfc94, it's a big change and that's pretty scary. It can be hard to trust the DWP sometimes.
Hopefully they can sort it so you can have your payments every two weeks like normal 😊

It's good to get it off your chest though @ChrisSCOPEhtfc94! Better out than in, they always say 😁
You won't be the only person feeling worried either, that's what's great about the community. You're never alone in what you're feeling 😊

I can empathise @ChrisSCOPEhtfc94 change can be really scary for us autistic folk, as is the unknown.
It's taken years of practice, but I'm getting better with it now, I just keep telling myself that I cannot change what is happening, but I can adapt and in time, the new situation will become the new routine for me. 😊
