Hi ps,

There has apparently been a "computer glitch" with the DWP payments process, as you can see from this topic :

www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/forum?view=top...id=10&id=96503#97010

The friend that I mentioned in my post, received 1 weeks payment of ESA on Tuesday gone, (2 days early) and then the other weeks payment today, their normal fortnightly payday.

thank you bro58
.So if the payment doesn't go in overnight i'll ring them tomorrow.fingers crossed.
seems strange my payment went in on time on the 28th Dec.

Yes ps,

My friend did have some problems before Xmas, as they were the first payments as a result of their recent ESA SG award.

This recent "glitch" seems to have developed post New Year, and is supposedly a seperate issue.

Hopefully your payment will go into the bank.
