    I can't tell you why she advised you this. Highly likely because you didn't verify your bank account until 2 days ago then this will be why you haven't received it. If payment was sent to your other bank account and it's now closed you will need to wait for the payment to be returned to DWP before they will release another payment.

    If you have access to a journal then you should put a message on there under the payment section and tell them that you didn't receive your payment

    Like she said to me because I declared the change on the 12th November all payments will be put on hold until new bank details verified

    That’s not what you said in your first comment. You will need to put a message onto your journal to tell them you didn’t receive your money.

    Hi so a update UC have confirmed it has been sent to my new account that was verified I still havnt received the payment could this just be a late payment as they verified it day before my payday

    It's clearly a late payment because your payment date is usually 8th of every month. It's late because you didn't verify your account until the 7th.

    Do you know what day I should hopefully receive my payment

    Hopefully by the end of the week. It takes 3-5 working days for money to go into your bank once payment was sent. It will depend on what day is was sent.
