    That's good news. No, it doesn't because it's not paid monthly, it's paid every 4 weeks. You should receive the decision letter sometime next week, as it's not unusual to have the money before the letter.

    The date of payment is hard to predict you will have to wait for the letter 

    I meant online shopping

    No you don't get a list of dates. Your award letter will explain when it's paid from and when your payment day is and it's paid every 4 weeks.

    For example mine is every 4 weeks on a Wednesday and my last one was Wed 12th August, my next one will be Wed 9th Sept. My daughters last one was Tues 6th August and her next one will be Tues 3rd Sept.

    Aww well done @cupcake88 I am really pleased for you.. I got my decision letter in the post yesterday and I was scored more than I assumed by looking at my report. I scored 6 but still obviously isn’t enough for an award. I have sent of my MR now with medical evidence and also other evidence of myself and my mum that we have writen. Taking it to the next step now and will just see how I go from there.. 
    @Debbie1234 Hi Debbie are you appealing or doing the MR so far? I’m not yet at the appealing I’ve just sent of my MR yesterday and hoping they receive all my information next week..

    @poppy123456 hi I just got my report threw today . And it says on her report she recommends a review in a year but on my actual letter it says I have it till June 2022 Does that mean they will review me in a year or will it be 6 months before 2022 am I guaranteed my money till till June  2022 ? I also got one says that the money went up in April 2020 will I be back paid for that  ?

    Reviews take place about 6 months before the award is due to end. Your backdated money should have included the benefits increase that was in April.
