Financial help after landlords managed to block universal credit payment

So I posted the back story yesterday on my landlord stopping my uc payment. Well I managed to get through to uc and they have blocked my payment whilst they wait for me to send the evidence in for proof of payments sent to the landlord. I already did this up until about the middle of last month and I’m only needing to provide proof for this months payment but yet they have still put a block on my payment which is due in a couple of days. I don’t know what to do financially as I’m not even sure if universal credit can stop my payments and it’s also not that easy to get to the nearest bank to get statements to then take to the job centre as proof every month. Is there any help available to get some type of payment until it’s sorted.

Do you internet bank? Screen shot of the account paying out the rent?

How do you pay your rent? Do you get some sort of receipt?

Internet banking even if you haven’t before. Banking apps are pretty simple, screenshot and send. Uc can request that you send information electronically so ask them to do so through your journal.

why is your landlord doing this it makes no sense do they want you out?

It won’t let me screenshot my bank so I’m trying to login online but they don’t think my payment will be released in time as it’s going to a decision maker. I’ve already provided proof but I’m still going to be without a payment whilst I upload the evidence today.
