Transfer from DLA to PIP list me a weeks benefit

Has anyone else had this issue?
They paid me just under a week early and therefore I've lost a weeks money!
If they do this with everyone they are raking in millions on top of the money they're taking off people.
I wouldn't mind if they had warned me but they didn't. Am I supposed to just be grateful that they awarded me the same amount as DLA after months of making my life a misery and my having to put of crucial life saving treatment for tumours and breathing problems? Well I'm not

I would wait until you have received your first full PIP payment, many members think that they have been underpaid but when it is all back to normal again they find that this has not happened.

One thing you can check is whether your DLA was paid four weeks in arrears or three weeks in arrears and one week in advance as this can affect the payments during the transition.
