Bills and figuring out what I'm entitled to are so confusing, money is such an issue right now🙄
Yeah I'll be getting UC too and I don't really understand it!! I got a flat with the council at the end of December and have had to pay £400 rent upfront, and £293 council tax for the last 3 months of the yearly payment aswell as having to furnish it put floors down and everything because its literally just the concrete ground, as a single girl on minimum wage at 33 weeks pregnant I'm finding it really hard to cough up all this money and survive :( let alone the flat being a half hour drive away from the area I'm in now as it's the only place I could get so fuel going up there every day after work to decorate it is costing me so much, as I can't even live there yet as its so dirty and empty😴😴 I don't get how all you mums do it my little girls not even here yet and I'm struggling so much
Me too!! Well I’ve had my little boy and was claiming income support (which u can claim from 29wks) and housing and council tax benefit however my area has just switched to Universal credit and I’m at a loss because I haven’t had a letter explaining what’s different all I know is I’m worse off now than what I was before UC came to my area x
