    Totally confused now. Had over 400 extra on tues then still got a payment today (normal payday), but about 10 more than usual lol. Do they actually know what they are doing?

    OH has a job interview tommorrow so fingers crossed for that so we don't have to rely on the CTC so much.

    how many hours a week do you work? If you work less than 30 and he has been laid off then you will have lost that 30 hour element

    I know but even still our money has gone way lower than before he started the work. Ive always worked 20 hours, my husband couldnt get work for ages so i was the only one with income. He couldnt even get jobseekers as we were told i had to keep him. I will ring them tommorow to find out whats happened. Thanks for your kind help though anyway :)
