    Hi @KerryBemmy - please hope you reconsider. As mentioned above, I've noticed how much you help.
    I agree that those eligible will receive payment by the 23rd (& for those eligible tax credit claimants, on no other means-tested benefits, will receive it between 23 and 30 November).
    It's a very unfortunate occurrence that those who try to give advice can unwittingly upset people (been there myself). I have also on a few occasions got things wrong, tho didn't mean to do so. The important thing is your willingness to help others; sincerely hope you stay.

    I saw your comment in my emails so I decided to comment. I didn't want people on this thread thinking they would definitely get it on the 11th which is why I commented on the post, I didn't mean to upset anyone. Unfortunately I'm still leaving the site, I already asked for my account to be deleted. This situation is  completely my  fault I'm still grieving over my boy and I should be doing that instead of posting on message boards, I need some time away from my phone and the internet. Xxx

    DWP don't text people exact payment dates, I've never heard of that happening to anyone. It's a mass text message sent to most claimants with a link to gov.uk. If they could do that they would have done it for everyone. 
    Is this same message I got mine was link to gov site. Mine was 8 til 23 also, I was wondering if it fake text to get money. I rang up becos I had to inform of having MS and was told I get mine on 16 Nov, hope it true, hope it real text it seems to be don't want fone getting hacked
