    Hi @Grayhammer - & welcome to the community. I'm really sorry that this has happened, but unfortunately you won't get through to anybody until tomorrow. Try ringing first thing, & hopefully they will arrange for your ESA to be paid the same day.

    Hi @Grayhammer

    I'm glad to hear you managed to speak to someone, that must be a big relief.  To check - are you able to manage while then, and also do you feel you have enough support overall to help you at home?  

    Just to advise, I tweaked the title of your thread and moved it to our ESA category incase others find themselves in a similar situation today and spotting this helps :)

    Take care and have a nice, relaxing bank holiday Monday.
