I hate to ask but I'm still waiting and starting to wonder if for some reason I'm not going to get it.

I'm on UC.

Did you receive yours?

Got mine today. There's seemingly no pattern to it. You've got up to 31st.

1000yellowdaisies · 19/07/2022 11:06

Yes i got mine on the 15th. That is the same day as my UC is paid so i don't know if you'll get yours the same as your UC....

PresidentByeThen · 19/07/2022 11:07

It could be another 12 days yet, don't panic.

Whereareunow · 19/07/2022 11:08

I get my UC on the 1st of every month so that would take me past the 31st we've been told to expect it by. Knowing my luck it will end up being after that 😐

It's not being paid with your UC, it's a separate payment, and you will get it by the 31st of July. Just because you haven't got it 5 days into a 17 day payment window doesn't mean you need to jump to thinking you probably won't get it at all!

I got mine this morning. It was not listed on my payments on my UC page, it just showed up in my bank account.

PresidentByeThen · 19/07/2022 11:11

If the deal was that you get it on your payment date, they would have said.

I've seen enough posts about it to see that there is no obvious rhyme or reason to how they are paying it- it's probably done on internal reference numbers or something, that normally you wouldn't even know

Whereareunow · 19/07/2022 11:13

Thanks for the replies, much appreciated

Hope it lands in your account soon OP Flowers

It can arrive anytime up to the 31st. I’m on a benefits forum on Facebook and it’s about 50/50 how many people have received it yet - and those on tax credits (like us) won’t receive anything till September ish.

BiscoffSundae · 19/07/2022 11:52

I received mine on the first day. They have up till the 31st so just wait

Rainbowx · 19/07/2022 12:32

Not had mine yet either .

KitsyWitsy · 19/07/2022 13:09

I got mine yesterday. Hope you get yours soon.

Quizzed · 19/07/2022 18:18

I've not had mine yet. Hopefully not too much longer to wait for it.

SpittinKitten · 19/07/2022 18:20

Mine arrived on the 14th as a separate payment; I'd budgeted for it not coming through until the 31st though.

startingagain17 · 19/07/2022 18:23

I haven’t got mine yet.

Rahrahrahrahannoyed · 19/07/2022 18:37

got mine

DeadButDelicious · 19/07/2022 18:44

I got mine this morning, my usual payment date is the first. There doesn't seem to be any 'system' they're using. It's probably based off reference numbers like someone else said. Don't worry, plenty of time yet. 👍🏻

Quizzed · 20/07/2022 07:31

I got mine this morning.
