ESA support group was created by patches123
I have received a letter from DWP stating that I am getting contribution-based ESA but they need to look at my claim to decide if I might also be eligible for income related ESA and if so, I may be entitled to extra payments (premiums). I’m not eligible for this according to their criteria, but am worried this is some way of removing me from the support group. I will return the form stating my ineligibility for these premiums. Have you come across this before? Thank you.

Thanks for the reassurance Gordon. Was panicking there. Just as well you’re here to ask.

Many thanks.
