    maybe you worked it out wrong ?

    but it's pretty difficult to work out, as the way you phrased it, it's hard to work out what you recieve from work without WTC etc.

    if you put what work pays, what you recieve from WTC etc seperately (your entire income, > just the figures and from where)), people here should be able to work out your figures for you, and if there is a problem (i don't know about how they do it, but trying to help)

    regards.
  • I get £317 a month from uc. Im work £230 this week. I did a calculation on turn2 us i get an extra £25..wow. Uc is bs i can't even sign off i been signed on for 2 weeks. Lol..

    If you posted your question in English rather than text speak you may get some proper help. I'm struggling to understand you as are others. I hate text speak, so annoying...

    I would find it harder to type like that than to type the correct words. Correct words come without thinking, trying to think of abbreviations is far harder !
