I've had a £115 payment from PIP. I thought my payment would be backdated. Is this right?

    You will need to ring them to ask because we can only guess what it's for. The number is 0800 121 4433 and they open at 9.

    Hi @GillP :) 

    Were you able to ring them today to check what this payment was? 

    Have you received your decision letter yet?

    That still doesn't explain a payment of £115.

    Any worsening of condition since the assessment took place will not be considered. If you disagree with the decision to award you Enhanced Daily living only, then you should get some expert advice before requesting the Mandatory Reconsideration (MR) Start here. https://advicelocal.uk/

    Did you find out why you only received the £115 backdated? As calcotti says, your award doesn't explain why you only received that amount.

    Hi apparently that payment was a week and 2 days  I asked when will I get my backdate money as I applied in April 21 she said she put a note on the system and the delay is because my confirmation letter needs to on pink paper ?
