@newstodayinuk: 6 bank statement red flags that could make Universal Credit ask questions! 🚨 If you claim Universal Credit, your bank statements may be checked as part of a review, so it's important to understand what could raise questions about your finances, savings, income or spending. In this video, I explain six things that could potentially lead to Universal Credit asking for more information, including unusual transactions, undeclared income, large cash deposits, changes in savings and money coming into your account that you haven't reported. This doesn't mean you've done anything wrong—Universal Credit may simply ask questions to check that your claim is accurate and up to date. Watch until the end to find out what you should do if the DWP asks to see your bank statements and how to avoid unnecessary problems with your Universal Credit claim. If you claim Universal Credit, this is important information you need to know. Save this video and share it with someone who claims benefits. #UniversalCredit #DWP #Benefits #bankstatememtredflagsdwp #uk

I will say I got told not to purchase luxuries on my UC review. I’d spent £50 in JD sports buying two children a pair of trainers each. These are their only pair of trainers. I also work full time so I was a bit annoyed to be told I shouldn’t be shopping for essentials in JD 🙄.

Can they investigate you if a) you transfer money from one of your accounts to another(for example I have to transfer from one account to another because I cannot pay on line with the account my UC is paid into and b) I have a friend who regularly borrows money then bank transfers it back to me.

If uc gets paid into your bank they already know what goes in and out of your bank they know without asking for bank statements

I have just had my first review, they asked for 4 months full bank statements, proof of tenancy, council tax bill and a utility bill. I sent them all the info and then had a 30 min telephone appointment. I am a single mum of 2, 1 of my kids has a life long medical condition and I also care for my step mother who has dementia. I was really worried but was all good as I am a genuine and honest person. I think they are right to review things as there are lots of people who take the mick.
