Good evening all, I was awarded pip in August backdated to May 10th should I be expecting a £150 cost of living payment or would I not qualify? Also would I need to contact dwp for this ? 
Thank you in advance

    Yes, you will be entitled to the payment. If you don’t receive it by the end of the week you can fill in the form for a missed payment. See link for form. https://www.gov.uk/guidance/cost-of-living-payment#report-a-missing-cost-of-living-payment

    Unbelievably mine has also been paid this morning 3rd November. Why it is six weeks after most people received theirs I have no idea. Smacks of incompetence somewhere. I receive my PIP payment every four weeks, so where is the problem with paying the £150?

    At least you've now received it so you can now relax.

    @poppy123456 I have been following on here and had it not been for the many, many people in the same boat I would have been panicking that I would never receive it.

    I'm glad you've now both received it @crazynan57 @NormanHilton :) And it's great to hear that hearing from others in the same situation put your mind at ease! That's what the community's all about. It'd be great to see you both stick around on the community :)
