    My ESA was not paid on the usual date, 2 days ago. I'm on the at risk & vulnerable list. I live on my own & I have no money & don't know what to do. I was supposed to pay for food delivery & now I can't. 
    Any advice, or anyone who is going through the same thing, Welcome!

    @Rach363 hi and welcome, sorry to hear you are having problems getting paid, did you try phoning them? if not could you try on Monday (as soon as they open is best). Have you got any family or friends who could get some shopping for you whilst you get sorted, if not try the salvation army or the red cross, failing that contact your local council ask about food banks in your area.
    Good luck and stay safe.
