Letter regarding my bank details

I received a letter from DWP today about my PIP claim asking me to fill out a form about my bank details for payments. Does this mean I've been awarded something as it doesn't say nothing about the outcome of my claim?

They rang me for bank details, but maybe it's different for everybody? Maybe it's worth a try giving them or ring or getting someone to do it on your behalf to check how your claim is coming along and to see what your entitled to. Maybe it can be done over the phone to make the process quicker?

Hi there
They do normally call to ask that maybe you can't use the phone or didn't supply a phone number
It does usually mean there is a payment due but what that is we can't say as you haven't given much detail
Is it a first time claim , have you had an assessment , have you had to appeal etc
Fingers crossed you will know soon -
I'm sure I filled in my account details on the pip form. Yes it's my first time claiming!
-
I've had my assessment too.
-
They do normally check to make sure there have been no changes its nothing to worry about
-
Does it mean that I'm entitled to something or not? I'm on more medication now so I will be notifying them.

You should only tell them if your health changes in such a way that it impacts your ability to carry out the specified tasks and this in turn could lead to an increased post score sufficient to change the award.
Information I post is for England unless otherwise stated. Rules may be different in other parts of UK. -
Thank you.

Thank you Adam I found this information very much detailed and helped me understand a bit more so glad I reached out! ☺️☺️

I got a letter too but I've had no response back from them and they don't answer when I call them
