OK, I receive contribution based esa topped up with income related esa (used to be on incapacity benefit) and also in the support group. Also receive pip. Because my contribution based esa is topped up with income related esa, does it mean I should be receiving the cost of living allowance? Hope the above makes sense.

Hello @Kae
How are you today? Welcome to the community!
Just to let you know, I've popped your post into our Employment Support Allowance section of the forum in the hopes someone can help answer.0 -
If you receiving some income based ESA during the qualifying dates you should have received the CoL payments.
