Universal Credit Helpline

Today we can confirm that Univeral Credits administered by the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) have officially adopted 0345 telephone numbers for their customer service networks, making calls now free* (*when you have inclusive minutes).

0800 328 5644

This is great news as it means that customers who want to contact Department for Work and Pensions  to check on Universal Credit (UC)  applications, notify a change of address, complain or who need general advice won’t be charged for calls from BT Landlines and will be able to use inclusive Mobile minutes without incurring any additional costs.

HMRC have closed public acces lines in the last 24 hours- we are working to obtain an alternative
Whilst the 0845 telephone numbers do remain operational, DWP have started taking steps to change all official correspondence so that they reflect the new and potentially cheaper/FREE 0345 telephone service.
