Hi all I got a call last Monday to say I’ve been awarded pip and that I’ll be getting a back payment, received a text the day after on Tuesday. No payment as of yet does anybody know if it will go in this week? It’s been 4 days (working days) and I’m panicking thinking it’s not going to go in. I know there’s probably a delay with it falling over the Christmas period.

    It doesn't mean anything other than what it says, it's a standard text sent for reviews. Although it advises you not to ring, you can ring PIP at anytime to ask what the decision is and they will tell you. Or you can wait for the decision letter in the next couple of weeks.
