Winter Fuel Payment ?

[Bobbisox1]

We got a letter over two weeks ago from the DWP but still nothing in our bank, ?..

[Jackdaw33]

I'm the same, Bobbi.

[SparklyKid]

Same here. The letter quoted bank details which we have switched from. I presume it will get sorted. I would have thought that it would have been automatic as our state pensions arrive in new bank.

I got my letter last week...also nothing in bank. I have always been paid on the dot, same days every year.

[Jackdaw33]

The letter states that if you have not received it by Dec. 23rd then ring them on the given number, so I suppose I shall have to wait till then.

[Canary42]

Same here

We've always had ours in November until this year but they don't give a particular date.

[cashier]

Not had mine either.

[pastafreak]

Maybe they are short staffed over at the DWP.

[roopower]

As jackdaw says, my letter stated if I hadn't had payment by 23rd December to get in touch. I expect, like everywhere else, they are struggling with staffing issues.

[dannyk13]

On the letter did it not give you a date by which you should have received payment.I did.

[cashier]

23rd December on mine as well.

[pastafreak]

December 23...and then of course the DWP, and banks, will be closed the rest of that week.

[woofgang]

nothing here either

[Bobbisox1]

I think we always got ours in or around the 3rd week in November , but I suppose things are different this year

[elliemay1]

Yes, if not received by 23rd they give you a number to call

[seanne]

Got mine paid in the bank last Monday.

[Apc2604]

Nothing in our bank yet either Bobbi. Be patient ;o)

[Bobbisox1]

haha, just nice to know it's there when it happens apc :o))

[maggiebee]

Received my letter about two weeks ago and payment in my bank account today.

[pastafreak]

There's hope!!
