Hi kath
We cannot answer your post as we do not have enough information, I would advise you to seek help from your local Welfare Rights Organisation. You can find your local Welfare Rights Organisation to help you with benefit advice by clicking on the link below and putting in your post code, it will then come up with a MAP with a list of agencies.
advicelocal.uk There can be a number of reasons why you did not get any benefits, I am guessing but was it Income Related ESA you applied for? The reason why I ask this question is that IR ESA is based on household income which may be why you did not receive any benefits but I am only guessing.
