This puzzled me but I discovered some people got the first text 10 weeks in not 15 like us people also asking what area do you live in when all Mail goes to Wolverhampton I don’t understand why where you live matters it sure does I’ve seen a few Oct dates been awarded on here some early dates and one the latter x

@Mrssnee16 you normally receive a text around the 15 week mark, so maybe you'll relieve a text this week? Xx

I'm still waiting apparently mine Is with a case manager and hopefully I'll hear something this week, the women I spoke to was very helpful. Has anyone contacted family fund before a decision has been made?

ItsRalf · 05/02/2024 11:16

Thanks all! I worked it out as HRC and LRM.

To add for anyone waiting, I rang Friday and they told me they hadn't even looked at it yet. I saw this pending payment this morning. So don't worry if they the same to you. Good luck everyone ❤️
