Hi I've just been told the DWP are holding a sdp back pay as I owe money for an overpayment, will they let me pay it off and not take all my back pay

They can use the money they owe you to pay back the money you owe them. You can contact the debt management team to ask them if you can pay it back in installments instead, whether they will agree to that, is another thing. https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/dwp-debt-management-performance-data/dwp-debt-management-customer-service-standards#contacting-debt-management
