    @ShadowyBramble i am the same. In my case I rent private for the time being but I hate when people are in my flat doing stuff. I could choose not to be in the room but it is much worse as I get weird feelings about them checking in my drawers etc... so I stay. Even if it is private the council ask them to check on things like. Smoke alarm etc.. I would love if nobody at all get in my place. I hate it ..

    Do they always ask for bank statements? That's an invasion of privacy

    Looking at food I bought

    We're there any trick questions

    I'm so sorry you find it difficult too, but it's nice to know it's not just me. I got through it, thankfully. Hope you're okay and are having a good evening.

    I've barely slept at all

    Got a headache

    Was worried all night re the uc review phone call tomorrow

    I googled it and read lots of horror stories how people were treated like criminals and were adked to show ebay amazon and PayPal accounts tk prove they not hiding money

    I have those accounts but don't use them. Nothing in them

    If they want bank statements Il have to take photos of them, all my bills are online, I don't have a printer and I'm. No. Good at odds so they would have to except photos

    It will show in comings outcoming s and what I have in account

    Hope they accept it if they do want them

    Has anyone had a review where it was just questions only and didn't waht to see anything

    Sorry I'm. A bag of nerves and rubbish at uploading things

    Seriously, look up anything and you will read the 'horror stories". The majority who have no problems don't write about it!

    All the best with your phone call.

    Mate, it is just checking your savings, housing, childcare costs, self employment, earnings etc. You have nothing to worry about.

    @Amberpearl

    HI, ive just had a call for my son, from the job centre, about UC, as im his appointee. He is on UC. He has Neurodivergent's including Autism significant Dyspraxia, and high sensory difficulties. He also has Graves disease and sevear vitamin D deficiency.

    He had finished college last year. He wants to get on an apprenticeship or a job suitable for his needs. His gp has given him a sick note.

    The call was absolutely fine, I just told her where he was at and what he needs help with, going forward, i told her I would fill in the limited capability form. She has arranged an appointment for me to speak to a work coach, to let them know what he can and can't do and if they can offer him any courses.

    I hope your call goes as smoothly, they was very nice to me.

    Afternoon.. very cold. I am watching telly under the blanket and it is ok. But very cold and humid like 10 degrees. It is depressing. Anyway will go to sleep in a few hours. Hope you are in a warmer place. Not great mentally but I hope it will ease.
