First payment after transfering to esa from ib

I have had a letter telling me I have been moved from ib to esa and payments start on 18th October but no payment details. Up to now ib has been paid 4 weekly on Friday, from replies here it seems it will be on a Monday in future, but will it still be 4 weekly?
Hi KW,
As different claimants have different pay cycles, on different days, the only way to be sure is to contact the DWP Benefits office that deals with your ESA.

Note that I have said 'should' in each case ...
