DWP text

Hi,i got a messag e today from the DWP stating "We have received your enquiry about your ESA,YOU don't need to call us.Payment will be paid on 11/08/23"

I have been in contact with the DWP for a long time and I am already in receipt of ESA,so i was puzzled by this message.At the moment,my PIP is being reviewed,but there is a long backlog and i've been told it will be paid automatically until next year..

The questions i have are..

1.Why did the DWP send me this text,when things are moving along as normal?
2.Should i contact them,even though there is no change at all in my circumstances.?

Thanks.

I have no idea why you received that text when it's a PIP review you're going through. Yes, you will need to contact them to ask what it's related to.
