Your question is rather confusing and it's not clear because you said you were paid £12,555 which was for the Severe disability Premium. Further into your question you then said you don't think you've been paid for the Severe Disability Premium.

It's extremely difficult to give this sort of advice on an internet forum because we can't see any of your paper work then you may have received from DWP regarding backdated money.

You really do need to get some expert advice from an agency near you, for this start here. https://advicelocal.uk/ Put your postcode in and choose the topic welfare benefits to see what's local to you.

It sounds as if you were one of those who was not correctly assessed for income based ESA when transferred from IB.

If you have been paid arrears of SDP then you have clearly been reassessed for income based ESA. As you say the EDP would also have been applicable. However there is no way for any of us to comment on whether or not the amount you were paid is correct without full information about the period the payment covered.

(Two years of SDP would be considerably less than £12,500.)

For a single person in the Support Group without the SDP it's £131.30 per week. With the SDP it's £198.60 per week. These rates are from April 2021 so would be slightly less than this is previous years.

If you need advice on whether you've received the correct amount of backdated money you will need to take all your paper work and get some expert advice from an agency near you. This is far too complex for any internet forum.

Start here for this and put your postcode in then drop the topic to "welfare benefits" https://advicelocal.uk/
