Didn’t get my full child benefit this month

[ParentalGuidances]

Anyone else? I woke up to a quarter of my child benefit payment only in my account? What’s going on?

Mine too actually, thanks for pointing this out

Me too, I read online that for some reason some payments are being split this month and we will get the rest next week

It's a one week worth of payment, you'll get the following 3 weeks worth next week. It's a glitch on the system. It's not extra money.

It's apparently split due to the bank holiday but Google says rest will be paid Monday

It’s not a glitch or a mistake. It’s to sort payments for the weird ass bank holiday.

i was googling it like crazy lol. They explain on their Twitter :)

I knew it wasn’t extra money, I was just wondering where the rest was! So it’s happening to everyone then, terrible.

@Mangogogogo ahhh okay

There's been another thread on this - you'll get the rest don't worry.

The rest of the payment will be paid on or before the date that it should have originally. You would not have been due to receive the payment until Monday or Tuesday next week. The payment you have received today is early so not sure why you think it is terrible.
