How come some have had payment prior to receiving a letter?

Hi
I see some people are saying they have received PIP monies in their bank prior to receiving a letter from DWP. How does this work ? Reason I ask is I await PIP after phone assessment and I have not given my bank details so how come some folk have had payment prior to official result?
