Hi, 

I haven't had my pip award for long, and got my second payment 26th Aug ( first one was backpay) and was expecting to get another payment this past Friday (23rd Sept) 

However didn't receive anything in my bank account, is there something changed, ive miscalculated or should I be concerned ?

Thanks

    Ring PIP on Monday.
    Information I post is for England unless otherwise stated. Rules may be different in other parts of UK.

    Hi there. I think you probably received the payment on 26th august early due to the late August bank holiday, your payment was probably not due to the Monday or Tuesday. Ring PIP if concerned but I’d imagine you will receive payment today or tomorrow?

    As above, check your decision letter. It will tell you the day of the week you are due a payment although the Tuesday was a normal working day so I’d still phone and ask.

    Your decision letter will tell you exactly what day of the week to expect your money but i suspect it's Tuesday.
    The money owed which you received first can be paid any day of the week. Your 2nd payment would have been paid early because of the bank holiday. If payment day is usually Tuesday, some banks release payment on the last working day before the bank holiday, which is likely why you received it early. Your next payment will be 25th October, you receive your PIP the same day as my daughter.
    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.
