Is the best advice, the only thing I'd add is that you are paying separate fees on each pension so that alone might be enough to think about combining but as Paul said we are not the best people to advise you on this

Universal Credit (UC) payments are reduced if you have savings (capital) over £6,000, with a £4.35 monthly deduction for every £250 (or part) above that limit.

I've seen people in the DWP office claiming they didn't know that, and ONLY ever had about £15k in savings.

I had to do that last year. Provide bank and savings acc details, share info and their value etc.

Just them checking you aren't fiddling the system.
