TRANSFER FROM ESA SUPPORT GROUP, TO DREADED UNCIVERSAL CREDIT was created by DC
HAD THE LETTER, applied by deadline. was asked to bring evidence, of I.D, passport, Utility Bull, bank statement etc for a telephone appointment. How do you bring those to a "telephone assessment" I had already explained a telephone assessment is not something i am able to do. This is because, i previously worked for DWP for 20 years & my job role was switched to a Admin Office to basically a call centre. * hours abuse all day every day, my girlfriend at the time lived 80 miles away and the stress of a 3 hour drive to her, then 3 hours in the morning just to face abuse all day, lead me to attempt suicide. I have reported this to my MP & the matter has now been referred to Barbara Bradley, Directctor General for DWP works & health at DWP on my behalf. I am sick and tired of constantly being harrassed. I will let you know any result. I AM NOT trying to avoid the assessment. I was told it would be simple & just transferred using my ESA &PIP claiminfo. Obviously not. Has anyone else had yetanother bad issue with the transfer to UC???

Hi DC,
I am sorry to hear of the situation you find yourself in. I would advise you to keep an eye on your Universal Credit account and on the so called To Do's as they can affect your forthcoming UC payments. You can make a request for a UC Biographical Test for ID verification via your Universal Credit Journal if you don't feel you could manage attending the Jobcentre.

Hi DC,
If I were you I would go for the Home Visit. As the Biographical Test is stressful as you are asked questions from your DWP record such as the first month you claimed PIP and it is easy to make a mistake.

thanks David, ive no idea what year and month i claimed, PIP, its been several yea &rsthey should be able to access all information. How do i find this information myself??? The migration was meant to be straight forward but as usual they are making things difficult, especially people with mental health,anxiety and depression disorders.

Hi DC,
The point I was making is that it would be preferable to accept a Home Visit than have to find answers to questions regarding PIP and your Benefits.
