Pip award text

jackary

Hi guys, I received my pip award text message on Thursday 29th of June and still haven’t receive my award a week later. Should I be worried or does this happen normally as I see people are receiving payments a few days later?

Hi 
is it from a tribunal award ? I know it’s 3 to 5 working days for it to go into your account if it’s back payment 

jackary

Hi, no it’s my first time applying and awaiting my back pay

That's correct.

I called them today and they said they had the dates mixed up. I was supposed to be backdated from November last year and they put November this year. Hopefully it’s all sorted now,
