‘Don’t retireThought up by the bloke who wants us all to work until we're dead.
Exactly....and this will be the response,if you get one,from a MP....someone like Graham Morris,would be inundated if everyone with a UC problem contacted him...he and most other MPs will do nothingI've done a cursory search and apparently the process is:
Someone in the call centre follows the Government guidelines of whatever part of Universal Credit they're applying.
If you disagree you put in for a 'mandatory reconsideration' within a month and if you have any sort of evidence to back up your appeal, you send it in.
If your reconsideration is rejected, you take it to a legal tribunal in the courts, which takes it out of Universal Credit staff jurisdiction.
Hope this helps.
if the op lived in the USA he could go into the local dole office and wipe them out with a colt python
Which office was your UC claim at ?
A complaint is defined as any expression of dissatisfaction about the service provided which is not resolved by operational staff as normal business.
You can contact us about any aspect of the service you’ve received, including:
Have you raised the RTI (real time information) dispute ? You will have done this in your local office ?
- mistakes that have been made
- unreasonable delays
- how you’ve been treated
- not being kept informed
If so have you had the decision back, if so raise a mandatory reconsideration of that decision
Personally, if you want to get people really looking at your case, and get a time bound response, I would raise a complaint, but this has to be about the way you have been treated , not the outcomes of your claim.
This link goes to the District Office for the site where you made your claim.Make a complaint about JSA or UC - DWP
makeacomplaint.dwp.gov.uk
They will then ask the office manager to fully investigate and respond.
So you would stress the "not being kept informed" and I would specifically get a line in around " I have done the right thing, getting back into work, yet this has closed my claim, and artificially closed down my original complaint, which remains outstanding".
If this doesnt get you anywhere, then you go to ICE.
ICE = Independent Case Examiner.Quite luckily it's not the USA otherwise I'd have probably done this already and be brown bread myself.
Very good angle to look at it from mate, much appreciated. I am going to contact east durham trust as @Sotodave has suggested then if they can't do anything I will follow your advice. What is ICE?
Ian Duncan Smith. The man has up to now 17000 deaths on his conscience. They still vote Tory thoughThought up by the bloke who wants us all to work until we're dead.
In layman’s terms. An almighty arse on, hoping people can’t be bothered and give upI've done a cursory search and apparently the process is:

The same twat who reckoned he could live on 53 pound a week, yet was in the papers not long after for ordering a breakfast that cost something like 23 quid. Conceited wanker of the highest order!!Ian Duncan Smith. The man has up to now 17000 deaths on his conscience. They still vote Tory though

This made me laugh out loud....MP helping with UC...half of them wouldn’t know a thing about it....
Initial ideas for Universal Credit were decent. The problem was that so many tinkered with it, it went from being common sense, to being even worse tgan the system it is meant to replace.
To add to the fun, they took the work allowance from what would have been the Jobseeker's Allowance claimants making small hours or zero hour contracts not worth it.
They still crow on about a work allowance, but never mention it is only for equivalents of Income Support or ESA only.
Now the whole thing is a mess. I have no idea of how a better system can be created, as you have to consider pre ious systems to make sure the majority aren't made worse off.
Good luck to those trying to make it usable.

Absolutely untrue.
I work for Grahame Morris. I am inundated with UC and PIP problems every single day.
There is a specially set up MPs hotline that we use to deal with these issues. We win people their tribunals and mandatory reconsiderations every single day.
We are specially trained for this.
I know not every office in the area do this but we do!
@FishburnMackem
Pm me and tell me who your mp is, if you like I can contact their office tomorrow and ask them to contact the DWP on your behalf.
If you volunteer for EDT I’d expect you to know better considering EDT refer the majority of their UC enquiries to us in the MPs office.
