Hi,
I know there are several threads regarding this but I'm really interested if anyone has an idea how COLP will be paid?
Please no hate, it would really help me to plan some bill payments for the next week as I'm struggling.
I heard people who are with Monzo bank already have payment pending for Monday afternoon, 4pm.Unfortunately, I'm with Barclays and can't see any pending payments.
Do you think it will depend on the bank, NI number, benefits date or alphabetically?
TIA

I get tax credits i.had a letter saying it would be paid between the 2nd,and 9th of May ( I think) probably different dates for those on universal credits?

Thank you, I'm on UC and only received a message that it will be paid from 25th April to 17th May....

It will just go into your bank

Both times I've had it within about 4 days of the 1st payment date

Not sure how they prioritise it tbh

Show quote history

Maybe alphabetically?
would make sense but nothing is logical in taxcredit/universal credit land😂

@x2boys maybe. I do have a B surname

But, the 1st time my mum (on esa and pip) and my sister (g surname) got it 1st. I guess they just pick it out of a hat!

It's done randomly in batches.
