You’ll Never get full 85% and they’ll cut off your UC as soon you start working. I make around 500 a week and I’m not entitled any help.
Yes the calculations seem a bit random, so I also can't give you a confirmation. But I recommend you phone UC to ask directly how it's calculated (because there must be a set way they work this out) - they've always been very helpful when I've reached out to them! Good luck! X
Hey, I’m in the same boat and I dont think I’ve ever got the full 85% back. I guess it depends on earnings from work and also it’s annoying coz you sort of have to pay first and claim back after so your in arrears almost
