Hi everyone

I have had a text today saying I have been awarded pip I’m just wondering if there is anyway I can find out my award before I receive the letter? 

I saw there was a automated phone line to ring and it would tell you your next payment but when I ring the number it doesn’t give me this option

thank you in advance 😊

    The only way to know is either ring them to ask or wait for the award letter.

    The automated payment line doesn’t always give correct information.

    It used to be option 6 for the helpline but that’s changed now. When you ring PIP they will just automatically tell you what your next payment is but as I advised it’s not always correct. Especially if there’s a new award.
