No ESA payment after PIP award?

I’ve been waiting for a back dated payment for enhanced PIP. I received this today but have no received my usual ESA payment - also due today.
I’ve been on income based ESA support group for years and never had a problem. Would they have stopped my ESA if I’ve been awarded pip? Surely my regular payment should’ve gone in at the same time.
Really worried I’ve made my situation worse.

This often happens when there’s a new PIP award and there’s likely nothing to worry about.You will need to ring them when they open at 8am. They will be able to make a same day payment. https://www.gov.uk/contact-jobcentre-plus/existing-benefit-claims0800 169 03100

Been worrying all night that I’ve done something wrong so will call when they open. Thank you Poppy. Sorry for all my questions0

There's no need to apologise, don't worry @louxx It can be concerning when you don't receive a payment you were expecting.
Were you able to call them this morning?0 -
I called them and they said it was cos they needed to fill out a form about severe disability payment. One who also receives pip and one who works. So was told I most likely wasn’t entitled to the severe disability payment as expected.However today I received £69.40 from ESA so now I’m really confused x0
