Mysterious payment from capita

I suffer from scizophrenia and I am in receipt of PIP and ESA.
I last had a PIP payment on the 12th of July, I get the enchanced rate.
Today the 19th of July a mysterious payment for £79.50 appeared in my current account, I looked at the reference and it said 'Capita rem'.
This is making me very anxious, I have no received a payment before like this and its making me think my benefits are affected in some way...
Can someone please help who has experience of this or who knows what it could be?
Thankyou

After ringing capita who deal with PIP claims and being told they don't make payments...it suddenly dawned on me that another capita dealt with my TV license which I recently cancelled, the £79.50 adds up almost to the penny what I had left on my license and they may have refunded me in error as I paid by direct debit monthly which stopped beginning of July...weird thing is the severe disability payment on ESA is exactly £79.50! which led me up the garden path as far as worrying about benefits went!1

That's not correct, SDP is £****.40/week for a single person.thing50 said:weird thing is the severe disability payment on ESA is exactly £79.50! which led me up the garden path as far as worrying about benefits went!

Thanks for that info I am now pretty sure its a TV license refund which is a mistake on their part as I paid monthly and have stopped payments...poppy123456 said:

It was TV license...you pay in advance monthly and they owed me £79.50 exactly. It just happens to be the same company that deals with PIP claims that also deals with TV License that totally threw me!0

Capita do PIP assessments but they don't deal with PIP payments, they come from DWP.
