DWP decided to stop paying my pip for fun

As the title implies, DWP have decided to just not pay my pip. I've had it for a few years, but with an appointee, and after the apointee was removed, pip was not suspended or cancelled, but they just haven't paid it this month.

What should i do? I would call but i hate phone calls and i'd probably get better advice from just calling random numbers as their security questions are so nonsensical i don't even know the answer to any they've asked. I would send that thing to make them contact me by email, but it seems it takes atleast a week for them to respond to the first email alone and i would prefer this to be resolved as soon as possible and not next year.

    Unfortunately you're pretty much stuck until they contact you, if you badger them they might turn round and block you.

    @oysters, you may have to call I'm afraid. Is this the first payment since your appointee was removed? They may be querying whether you can now handle your own claim or money and if this means you have had a change of circumstances.
