Whats the easiet way to get through to DWP about cliaming severe disability premium...?
Been on hold over and hour and 30 mins. Still not spoke to anyone? is there any other way of cliaming it than over the phone? The guy from CAB said I should be enetitled to it.
Thanks In advance

Oh how frustrating for you @markf87
On their website it says:Disability Premiums.
You don’t have to claim disability premium, it’s automatically added to your Income Support if you’re eligible.
Contact your local Jobcentre Plus if it hasn’t been paid
Let us know how you got on!

I wouldn't trust DWP with paying the correct benefits they're very tight lipped on what benefits you should get at times lol
will let know how I get on
