I received a direct care payment from my local council. It hasn't arrived yet and us three days late. I can't pay my carer. Gas any one else experienced this?

    There was another new member on Saturday that asked the same question. You will need to contact your local Authourity to ask them because they are the only ones that can tell you what's happened. We can only guess what that reason is.
    I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.
    If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.

    Hello @Portia51

    Welcome to the community! :) I am sorry to hear the payment is late, have you been able to call your local authority?
