Relatable Home #2 Gets universal credit for 5 but sits begging on live!

I don’t believe she got as much inheritance as she said she did. Wasn’t it like £60/70k? If it was and she still had a decent chunk left then she would not be receiving any UC. Over £16k in savings and you get nothing.
I think she got a few thousand and spent it on the sofa, iPads, beds, washing machine and all those top up shops of peparamis and fruit.

A quick calculation and her basic UC entitlement would be around £1014 every 4 weeks. That’s if the first Av is born in 2017 or before, that’s without any additional elements for any disabled children or carers. I assume she has no childcare fees and majority if not all of her rent in the flat would be covered under UC too which would also be on top of that figure I think.
She probably doesn’t have any deductions as she doesn’t work, no savings, no childcare fees etc. Correct me if I’m mistaken as I’m only going on my knowledge of UC from my own claim.

Child benefit would be £373.60 every 4 weeks.
I would assume she gets council tax reduction. Utilities must be quite cheap in the flat too.
So what is she spending nearly £1400 a month/£350 a week on?!

I think it was between 60-80k she said, I know private rent is pretty expensive and she’d have been paying full council tax too which could’ve been a lot more than she’s used to paying with her deductions.

I think she just blew it on food shops as well, all branded when it doesn’t have to be. Constant pre cut fruit, meal deals for herself about £4 a go, red bulls, cans of coke, insane amounts of snacks for her kids as well. Her bills can’t be too expensive in a flat as it’s all one level as well. It costs me about £180 max a month for gas & electricity which isn’t much as I used to pay much more before changing providers. That’s for a 2 storey house as well so if she’s paying more than me then I’d be concerned.

I’m fairly certain her daughter was born after 2017 so she’ll get 2 UC amounts for her first 2 kids, child benefit for all 5, her own amount for single over 25 and she says none of the dads pay (if they don’t then it’s up to her to do something about it instead of just moaning). Who knows if she’s claiming extras for the kids, I doubt it as she said about putting a claim in for 1/2 of them for autism I believe but never mentioned it again as far as I’ve heard.

No idea what she’s spending a fortune on every week considering she’s taking money off everyone else, I’d assume she must have crazy debt but she has nothing to show for the debt so what is it even for?

Her UC is capped, she’s shown her statements before and she gets around 400/500 all together plus child benefit on top. I think that’s why she’s trying to go down the DLA route for the kids because the cap lifts!

I don’t know what the caps are for UC but it does make sense. I’m just baffled as to why she’d keep having more kids if she’s getting about £500 UC max and £370 ish child benefit. That’s only about £870 to pay for leftover rent costs, council tax (reduced slightly), bills and food, clothes, car etc for herself and 5 kids. Why continue to have more kids!? It’s ridiculous!

She must have some money left then as over £6k but under £16k they make deductions so that’s probably why she’s capped.

She’s said on live before her eldest child was born on the day the new benefit cap came in. So if she had been born the day before, she’d be able to claim for 3 of her kids not 2. I think she’s said that after her rent is paid she has £400 a month + child benefit to pay all bills and live off, which to be fair isn’t much at all to feed 6 people. But I can’t feel bad for her, she’s made her (sofa) bed, she can lie on it.

Her rent will absolutely all be being paid for

Yes I said “after her rent is paid”

I’m not sure about England but I’d assume it would be the same as here in Scotland since it’s the same system. My mum paid private rent when I was a kid and she only had £400 covered so had to pay the extra £150 herself and she had no job so no other income affected it. I always assumed she’d have to pay some amount towards her own rent as I didn’t think they covered it all

It’s the same rule here too unless council is different but if you private rent they pay different portions for different postcodes

Someone called her a beg so she moved the camera away and is crying

I can’t believe she’s resurfaced after blowing all of the inheritance money that she got! Now she’s come back with the same sob stories as before but still affording all the branded shopping etc! I thought she had all these big plans for the money? What a joke.

Someone sent her £250 for the van on live the other day. Shes called Nagma or something and she’s mad, she sent the money then started saying she knows her address and wants their kids to play together etc so she was just gonna turn up at her flat. Zara needs to be careful sending her address to random strangers so they can send her clothes and takeaways. Her beggy behaviour could land her and her kids in the path of some serious weirdos.
