@catherineoneill.con yeah it's shit however I was talking to my sister and before universal credit came in she was on income support and got 70 a week so 280 a month to live off when she was a single mother plus 20 a week child benefit, don't get how they expect people to live 🤷‍♀️ get just enough to pay the bills

@olivia161 it's shit isn't it hopefully they see it's causing cahos and scrap it

@erincharliebubba I do work 16 hours well I did this is my last week before maternity starts x

@erincharliebubba I do do 16 hours a week well I did I'm off on maternity from this week. So do u think it will get better for me when I go bk to work ?

I'm also a single parent and have no other income that is literally it

I'm on it and get 450 a month! That is all, after all my bills I have about 20/30 left a month plus my 20 a week child benefit 😂🤦‍♀️ my rent is paid through housing benefit if I didn't get that I'd be homeless.

@laurabump27, total shite for me ! But then again they cap it after two children so that’s probably why. If you work 16-20 hours your laughing though ! Xx

@laurabump27 it's better for working people usually, not all the time but we seem to have got super lucky. We took a big risk moving as our rent is 225 a month more than what we were paying and we weren't 100% sure if universal credit was going to be better for us or not as we had only used to online calculators before we moved, luckily the calculaters seemed pretty accurate for us x

@ginnyw132 ahhh I thought people were worse off on universal but this sounds so much better x

@laurabump27 huh? I don't know why it's so much more, our rent is abit more now as we moved but before we were never eligible for housing benefit anyway, now we get the housing element. 🤷‍♀️ X

@ginnyw132 how is this so much more x

@catherineoneill.con my partners earns 1650 a month after tax and we get 550 universal credit, before we would only get 150 child tax x

@ginnyw132 I work and I'm going to be worse off when I transfer over fs so deffo not better in my case just my luck with a new baby on the way and just before Xmas

@catherineoneill.con My partner works, they make it better for working people to encourage more people to work

@ginnyw132 I've been told I'll be worse off when I go on to it do you work ?

I'm like 400 a month better off on universal credit 😂 I love it!

im on uni and i find its a pain coz its monthly but you still get the 20 pound every week xxx

I'm dreading it coming round here.. X

Tell me about it ! Xx
