    You need to contact PIP and tell them.

    Personal Independence Payment (PIP)

    Telephone: 0800 121 4433
    Textphone: 0800 121 4493
    Relay UK (if you cannot hear or speak on the phone): 18001 then 0800 121 4433
    British Sign Language (BSL) video relay service if you’re on a computer - find out how to use the service on mobile or tablet
    Monday to Friday, 9am to 5pm
    As an after thought, do you claim any other benefits? if so then sometimes it can be paid with them and because it's only £10 it's very easy to miss.

    If that’s contribution based ESA then your bonus may have been paid with ESA.

    I-ESA isn't listed on this page https://www.gov.uk/christmas-bonus/eligibility

    Is your ESA a 'mixed' award, if so you would have c-ESA entitlement which is why you would have got the bonus.
