Hello! I went into terminal stage of kidney failure and after 28 weeks my SSP run out. 1 of my employers sent me a form which I filled out them applied for ESA through charity. I was awarded it.
I still remained employed with both employers but not receiving any salary. 1 employer paid me recently some accrued holiday pay. Another one out of good will is paying me occupational sick pay.
ESA sent me a letter claiming this is salary and that I am working and didn’t notify them. I am not working clearly and now I am panicking as the letter is very scary!
What should I do? Am I in trouble? I didn’t know I had to tell them about the holiday pay and the occupational sick pay as I thought it doesn’t affect the claim as it is a contributions based ESA!
Which evidence should I send to them?
thank you ! I am sick with stress and it is making me worse physically
