UC Deadline Date, Medical Conditions and Evidence

Hi RosiePosie

Yes I took a chance that the letter not having my middle name didn't matter - they don't ask you to input text for that Q, just answer yes or no.

They ask you to input your name etc when they get to the passport question, so just remember to type it exactly as your passport at that stage.

Re phone contracts, I don't know the answer to what counts, but I personally answered including my sim only stuff as if they were contracts and I passed the test.

It is annoying how cryptic some of the terminology is (as usual), but I think I was was lucky to stumble upon the correct interpretations...!

If you're really worried you could try and sign up for access to your tax stuff on the HMRC website, or get a DVLA account, as when I did so they seemed to use the same system, so you could maybe treat it as a practice run...

Hello @SowandGrow

Yes, it is so cryptic! I will try your suggestions, thanks.

"Re phone contracts, I don't know the answer to what counts, but I personally answered including my sim only stuff as if they were contracts and I passed the test."

My sim-only is definitely a contract sim. However, my actual phone is not (I bought that outright.). Jeez, they really make you work for this migration . . . hopefully I'll get questions that align with everything going through fine.

Thanks again for all your help!

RosiePosie, I have a sim-only contract I pay monthly for data text and minutes which I get for the month. It is essentially a pay as you go as the contact can be stopped at any month. I bought my phone. I said NO as I dont have a mobile contract, because I did not get a phone and sim deal for a fixed time period typically 2 years say forced to pay a monthly fee that I signed a contract for and most likely have a penalty to pay if I pull out. Anyhow it was the correct answer for me, saying I did not have a phone contract.
Hope that helps.

@roadrunner. Thank you so much - that is the same situation I am in with my phone and sim set-up. I will definitely be answering 'no' to the whole phone contract thing if I get asked the question.

You welcome RosiePosie, sim only deals are not credit checked as you are not being lent a phone, just paying for your minutes etc, you can't really steal anything. So there will be no reference on a credit file. Its the same as online shopping, you pay for the goods and get them unlike a mail order catalog where you pay for your goods over a period of time so will need to be credit checked and a reference will be made on your credit file. Basically anything given to you without paying upfront is going to need a credit check. Hope you suceed indeed all of you out there doing the migration. All these tips help.
