UC overpayment

Thank you.
Its increasingly clear that cESA is being paid by ESA correctly, but recorded by UC wrongly.
This is causing people so many problems.
Thank you for your testimony.

Yep - John and I go back a long way too!
Starting to feel very old...

Hi Sorrel,
Thank you for the update.
Yes, the UC payment went into my bank for April and was around £300 over - although with the 2026 increases I still don't know what it should have been as they haven't given me an accurate statement, just the one with the inaccurate ESA deduction.
I did write to them in the journal but have not yet had a reply.
Will keep you all updated here. Hope they sort this out before the next payment.
Best wishes

Yes this just happened to me. I get paid uc twice a month and they took £180 of esa instead of £609. The case worker letter of over payment on my journal said I owe over £400 . Is that for both payments? The one I had today and the next one
Ringing up the dwp debt management tomorrow. Is there something wrong with their system
