It has finally happened!

So, I received a phone call this afternoon from the DWP. I had them speak to my support worker who was with me at the time. They asked her some questions and he then told us that due to the information shared, he was able to overturn the original decision and said that I will receive a payment this coming Friday! I have no idea as to how much I will be paid but It's a massive relief to know I have been awarded PIP. I was refused on my first app then re-applied and refused again, the second time though I put in for a mandatory reconsideration and as mentioned, I was successful! I literally lost all hope but I feel amazing right now!

I am to expect a letter with the decision within the next 1 to 2 weeks. Does anyone know what time (roughly) I should expect my payment by on Friday?

Congratulations on your success!

What time your money arrives will depend on when your bank processes it on the day.

DWP PIP payments are processed overnight via BACS, so your money will usually land in your bank account in the early hours of Friday morning, typically between midnight and 3:00 AM. BACS guarantees the funds will be cleared and available by 7:00 AM on Friday at the latest.

Because this payment was arranged over the phone following your successful Mandatory Reconsideration, Friday's transfer will be a lump sum of your back pay, covering the money owed from the date of your second claim up to the present day. The decision letter arriving in a week or two will outline the exact breakdown of your daily living and mobility rates and confirm the start date for your regular four weekly payments. Pushing through the mandatory reconsideration process after two initial refusals is a huge achievement and a well deserved outcome for you.

The automated line is only for the monthly award.

Backpay is dealt with and paid separately. Often, this arrives into your bank account before the letter arrives.

I’ve just used the automated service on the PIP enquiry line and it says I’ll get so much. However, it just tells me I’ll get the standard amount but did not mention any back payment… will I still get this or just the amount I was told?

Do you think I’ll receive this on Friday with my standard payment?
