£150 Disability payment ( PIP )

User2022

Hi all,

I was wondering if I am eligible for the £150 payment. I was awarded PIP on the 4th August which was backdated from April 28th 2022. I’m confused by this as I have not received any payment as of yet so I’m wondering if I’ll get it or not. Could anyone shed some news on this?

Thanks

Yes, you qualify. I expect the payments to those who qualify as a result if backdated awards may be the last to be picked up. If you don’t get the £150 by the end of the first week of October you could report a missing payment

I hope calcotti's reply has helped to reassure you @User2022?

Do let us know if you're still unsure of anything

Thanks everyone! I didn’t think I would have been entitled to anything but happy that I am now.

Wait until the end of this week.

Still no got the £150 payment as of yet. I did ring the Dwp and they told me to fill in an online form out and if I don’t hear anything back in 2 weeks I’m to ring them back. Also they did confirm I am entitled to it:

Hi @User2022 I’m in a similar situation. I applied back in April and was approved in August & still haven’t received anything! I’ve filled in the online form but hoping will receive or hear something soon 🤞🏼

User2022

Aww I’m glad you have had your Pip sorted out and awarded! I was hoping for it to be in this week but looks like another few weeks will have to wait. Hopefully they sort it out soon.

Hopefully, it will be in soon @User2022. How are you finding things at the moment?

I can hear how you were hoping for it to be in this week. Please don't hesitate to let us know if we can do anything to help, even if that's just listening to you

Still no luck in the £150 payment. I did ring DWP the otherday and they said it will take longer than 2 weeks for them to even look at my missed payment form.

I have no idea how they knew that because PIP are not dealing with the payments. When you ring DWP you are speaking to someone from a call centre, not from DWP itself.

User2022

That’s what I was thinking. I filled the form in 2 weeks ago gone Thursday and still have not heard anything back yet… I just don’t know what to do if im honest or who to ring.

I'm sorry to hear this @User2022 from reading the forum today it seems you're not the only one who hasn't heard back after a few weeks.

It's difficult to know what to suggest, because I'm sure a lot of people will want to ring, which will mean a long wait as the phone lines will be busy. I would hope there's an automated message at least or a separate line for CoL enquiries.

Perhaps if you feel able to, give them a ring on Monday and I hope you'll be able to get some clarity on these delays!

In the meantime, we're all here if you need to vent
