Budgeting loans

Hi I have tried to search online but could not find any information. Why are contribution based esa claimants now exempt from applying for budgeting loans?!?. I recieve both income and contribution esa so does that make me eligible?!?

Hi,

Contributions based benefits have never been eligible for any budgeting loans. If you've been claiming the Income Related top up for at least 6 months then you'll be able to claim. Online is the quickest and easiest way to claim.

Thanks for your reply. I have had several budgeting loans in the past,so was surprised to learn that contribution based esa is not entitled.
