Preparing to go onto Universal credit


Hello

As many of you know, the Universal Credit is being rolled out, the following tips may help you, if you need someone to help you do this, feel free to ask someone.

Going onto Universal Credit could put you in debt, but I have found two banks, or rather one bank, and one building society that can help you. This was an article by Martin Lewis on This Morning, although I have adapted it to Universal Credit.

If you have a current account with First Direct, you can have a free overdraft up to £250.00, that would help you with the switch over, plus they give you £100 for joining their bank.

If you need £500 or more free, Nationwide Flex Account, gives you a bigger overdraft facility for a year.

I hope this helps you.
