In a follow up to my previous post if u get carers allowance and your on universal credit they deduct the carers but YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO GET a carers premium of £210 A MONTH!
However they won't tell u this and you have to contact them and APPLY FOR IT!
Despite the fact their deducting your carers allowance they won't automatically give it to you 🙄 (like they don't know what's happening!!! ) It has to be applied for. ! So everyone in this situation please go onto your journal tomorrow and apply for the carers extra premium! We've all been missing out on £210 a month ! And it's only thanks to Craig on this page I found out myself! U can also ask for it to be backdated.
I have also this week spoken to the carers allowance unit and they advised me to NOT switch it over to UC as u get better national insurance credits for your pension by staying with them! U can stay with them and still get the £210 from UC.
Many thanks to Craig for pointing this out and please share this far and wide so the carers out there get what THEY SHOULD!

What kind of sick benefits system is this? I've gone without carers allowance since the 20th October because they wanted me to switch over from that to universal. I wasn't getting a penny anyway because every penny carers paid universal deducted so my payments from them always ended up at zero. But I agreed to it so havnt had one single penny from carers since the 20th October. I've gone without food money since then. And guess what??? My monthly statement has just been produced and universal have again deducted the carers and paid me ZERO despite the fact I havnt actually had it and I've messaged and told them for three weeks running I have not had one single penny. I've continued to help and care for the person despite it taking me six hours on 6 buses every visit to even get there and back because the person has cancer in three places and their dying. Its bad enough watching someone u care about slowly turn into a skeleton and die without all this grief from the benefits system as well! My rent won't get paid this week now after I swore to them it would ! So I'm looking at losing my home as well as having zero food zero money zero anything for at least another week and they wonder why people take their own life! I even asked about food bank two weeks ago and after promises of contacting me that never happened either! So I had to resort to applying for an emergency daf grant. But I can't do that either this week. In the last year I've lost my home my animals everything i owned and had to walk away with just the clothes I stood up in. Was that not bad enough for u??? I asked Santander if I could have a 50 overdraft to get me thro this week they said no as well. Thanks Santander I've only banked with u for what 11 /12 years.? So what other option is there? Only take your own life? No one can live anyway with no food and no money. I'd be better off begging on the streets than this. I try to be a good caring person but believe me it certainly doesn't pay! I have no family left to ask I'm the last of our family. I've been undergoing almost constant cancer scans and biopsies myself the last year but still do everything I can for anyone else. But what kind of life is this? There won't be any Christmas for me I havnt even got a cooker and won't get one single present but some FOOD would have actually been nice universal! Thanku very very much and a very merry Christmas to all in the benefits offices! I'm sure u will have a better one than you've given me anyway! Taraaaa and thanks for the ZERO!

A loyal woman is irreplaceable.

Any woman can be replaced.

You can find someone prettier.

You can find someone younger.

You can find someone with more money.

You can find someone with a better body.

But the one who stayed when you had nothing.

The one who supported you at your lowest.

The one who believed in you when no one else did.

The one who chose you over men with more to offer.

The one who loved you when you couldn't love yourself.

That kind of woman is irreplaceable.

She saw potential in you when you were a mess.

She invested in your dreams when they seemed impossible.

She stood by you through your worst moments.

She sacrificed her own comfort for your success.

She loved you before you became someone worth loving.

Don't lose the one who chose you first.

Don't throw away the woman who built you up.

Don't abandon the person who never abandoned you.

Don't forget who was there before everyone else wanted to be.

Loyalty like that doesn't come around twice.

Love like that doesn't happen every day.

A woman who loves you at your worst deserves your best.

Don't make the mistake of thinking you can do better.

You can find different, but you can't replace irreplaceable.
