    i do not understand how they can pay 6.9 million ppl in a week yt cant send out 100,000 payments in a month.. is there a way i can contact them today an tell them to shove this payment where the sun dont shine,, its made me worse waiting for it with stress and frustration when i really needed it,,  and i dont need it now, 

    There's no contact number for you to ring them, it's pointless ringing PIP because they are not dealing with the payments.
    If you don't want it then all your worries regarding this should ease.

    Little update I've still not received the payment. I just can not believe how long we've all been waiting. It's an absolute joke and a disgrace. This really does not give hope about the second payment of the £650. If they can't do the £150 how can they send £324?? 🤞 Everyone gets their payments very soon.

    Phoned pip today spoke to a nice young lady who said let me check the other system to see if the payment has been issued, but guess what the system was not working. She said she would look and text me but no text received as of yet. So will see what tomorrow brings

    I have no idea how they would know because PIP are not dealing with any of the payments.

    When I spoke to someone last week they did say that If I had not received anything by Monday 17th to phone and they could look into it. However how much they can do is another matter

    Good morning little update as of today (20th October 22) still no payment made to be. And what I'm finding frustrating is it's not even been brought to the news attention!!! Why and how is this been ignored??

    Filled out the form on 3 oct, am yet to receive a reply or £150 payment. Government seems to be crumbling!

    In the words of Liz truss "this is a disgrace" still no payment here!!! This is frustrating and draining. Just a date would be nice.

    There's quite a few members that have now received the money in the last few days.

    I assume that the original payments were generated by computer but that all the missing payment requests need manual checking which is bound to take time (frustrating though that is).
