Those that received it today will be because their bank releases funds on a Saturday but not all banks do that. Just because you haven't yet received it, it doesn't mean you're not entitled ( you are entitled) it just means you haven't received it. Expected dates to receive it will be anything up to 31st July.Not everyone's receievd it yet, my daughter is one of them and she's also entitled to it. It's only been 2 working days that the payments have started to be received.You will also receive the £150 in September because of your PIP.I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.

I'm with Barclays who always clear funds early so that Is why I was a bit worried, but thank you for the confirmation that I am entitled to It.

Can anyone help with a question regarding the cost of living payment please? I am on pip , my husband is my full time carer and he receives carers allowance, we also receive universal credit & I get lcwra , we are unsure if we will receive the payment, there is so much in the media that makes it all very complicated & confusing (especially for me!) Thank you so much Lynda

Thank you so much for your advice & replying to my question , that is so good to hear & It will certainly help us ! Everything in the media was so confusing so it's great to finally get an answer 😌🙂Thank you! X -
The criteria are actually simple. Provided you were entitled to UC for a monthly period ending between 26th April and 25th May you are eligible. Anything else is irrelevant.Information I post is for England unless otherwise stated. Rules may be different in other parts of UK.
