Hi @Bushby

Good Afternoon & Welcome ???

As far as I can make out this is down to a “Computer Glitch”

So people are getting their esa payments split in two “separate payments”

“Half this week & Half next week”

You need to get hold of someone at “DWP” If this will be a “Problem” 

We have got a “Helpline”
0808 800 3333

If you have any further problems!!!!!

I would also be very happy in helping you???

With either help/support/info if required!!!!
