United utilities and ESA was created by leo9877
Hello
After getting esa on a reassessment a few months ago. I received a letter today from dwp, stating that they are taking money from said benefit under instructions from United utilities to pay my water bill and arrears! I've had no pre warning or notification that this was being set up. Had a letter ages ago from uu saying that I owe and threatening etc. So dwp have given them information etc?
Thanks in advance

This is not an area of benefits that we deal with on the forum, I would get face to face advice, the CAB specialise in debt advice.

It sounds as if UU have applied for and received an Attachment of Earnings.

Nothing on this board constitutes legal advice - always consult a professional about specific problems

I'm just Livid that they have allowed all this without notification etc.
No breakdown of sum or reason behind figures. Also no end time
