It is not 12 months transitional protections. It is 12 UC monthly payments where you were paid £1 or more. So if you had any months where UC was zero  then this is why the claim is still running. A to do will appear asking you to report money savings and investments to stop a 13th payment being issued.

May was our 12th payment. They have just made a 13th for June and also asked re savings. I can't be bothered to journal umpteen accounts again so I have just journaled then staying still over the limit, but they don't seem to read the journal as have not responded to it for over a month now.

If you are concerned, you could re-declare your savings as over £16k. That should prevent any further payments until the capital is verified.

Can I just declare a single saving spot that has over 16k in it or will they then claim I am lying by not declaring our other umpteen accounts some of which probably only have pennies it?

You would need to declare all money  savings and investments.

What matters is the capital, not were it is.
