Bank Checks
Hi, I'm wondering if anyone can help me make sense of this article. Not sure how reliable it is. They speak about, UC, Pension credit & ESA. I assume they are actually referring to Income Based ESA as CB isn't means tested so it is almost impossible to break the rules. I am on CB ESA and from what i understand they won't…

Credits-Only NS ESA Claim

Received a confusing and unexpected text regarding ESA- has anyone else received this?
The message reads "We have received your enquiry about your ESA. You don't need to call us. Payment will be paid to your account by 08/04/2025." I have not made any enquiries or had any contact with the DWP with regards my ESA so I'm a bit lost as to what this could be in reference to- there doesn't appear to be any…

Advice needed please
I was awarded New Style ESA on 03/04/24. I am paid fortnightly. I received my ESA50 form in December & had my WCA last week. IF I am placed in the support group, will my payments be backdated? And if so from what date please?

Has anyone spotted this! Dodging HC ruling
The High Court found changes to WCA were illegal becuase they were simply an attempt to save money and not a genuine attempt to help people..so the government just moved to change over to PIP recently..surely it's the same thing..illegal and just to save not help..surely this must go to court
