So received a letter last Saturday asking for my sons birth certificate so sent it special delivery on Monday and today received it back, so glad it was added fast scan date 5/2 so a very long way to go

You’re very lucky! I waited over 2 months in which time I was told they are most likely lost and then sent another copy etc only for the first copy to come back anyways 🙈 it’s actually ridiculous!!

I know I was shocked, the system is so messed up because none of it makes sense with the way it all works

It’s another quiet weekend on awards :( was hoping there would be a bunch of early November awards being done! Maybe we will hear more on Monday 🙏🏼

mummyof3girlsx · 03/03/2024 07:08

@Shaf89 I am 2/11 they called me on Friday to confirm bank details and said we was awarded xx hopefully this week they will breeze through

Mummaof4boysx · 03/03/2024 08:05

@mummyof3girlsx im the same date as you, I did post a while ago (but couldn’t work out how to tag people). I was told 2 weeks ago that it was with DM, then 1 week ago waiting to go to DM and when I phoned on Friday it was with a DM. I’ve got a bad feeling about mine, also I don’t think they know their arse from their elbow

What scan date are you? I've been told I would know by 5th March, middle March and beginning of April 😂😂😂

bonz2023 · 03/03/2024 08:29

@Mummaof4boysx sorry just realised you mentioned scan date, haha

mummyof3girlsx · 03/03/2024 08:49

@Mummaof4boysx I called Friday and it was with dm since Wednesday. My phone rang Friday afternoon and it was a really nice lady asking to confirm bank details and said we had been awarded and payment processed/ letter sent out. Definitely call on Monday and see where you’re at. Don’t worry as I honestly didn’t sent hardly anything I really thought it would be a decline I was so shocked when she said she had been awarded MRC & LRM! X

mummyof3girlsx · 03/03/2024 08:51

@Mummaof4boysx plus I also asked last week for a text to be sent. I didn’t get a text so I wouldn’t have even known we had been awarded if she didn’t call! So defo call Monday and check in xx

Mummaof4boysx · 03/03/2024 08:59

@mummyof3girlsx i sent loads, but now I’m not sure if any of it was needed or relevant. I only found this group recently, filling the forms out confused me so much. Hopefully I hear something tomorrow 🤞

mummyof3girlsx · 03/03/2024 09:08

@Mummaof4boysx your be fine, they probably awarded you Friday.. defo call and check in tomorrow- let us know x

lillyT83 · 03/03/2024 09:36

STEPH691 · 03/03/2024 10:01

@lillyT83 am the 9th aswell it’s such a headache the wait. Going to ring at 9 they said was due to go to DM so praying it’s with one. Hopefully this is our last week. Xxx

mummyof3girlsx · 03/03/2024 10:05

morning everyone, fingers crossed for you all this week and hopefully you get what your babies deserve!! Just a quick one, how long does it take for the back payment to go in? Mine was sent Friday just wondering when I will receive it x

Hi there. My bestie received her back pay she says 3 days after it was sent . You should see it in Tuesday , Wednesday latest. Not sure if it counts weekends hence why I’m edging on the side of caution with my length of time guess x

mummyof3girlsx · 03/03/2024 10:25

Thank you both xx @STEPH691 @Muvva1981 keep me updated x rooting for you all (not forgetting @bonz2023 x

Muvva1981 · 03/03/2024 10:25

Also regarding when you will see back pay in account . I don’t know if anyone’s with Monzo but you can see pending payments incoming 2-4 days in advance .

MrsW12 · 03/03/2024 10:44

I hope people see some positive results this week. Best of luck to you all. 16 weeks on Wednesday for me, so I’m not holding out hope

Kmc2303 · 03/03/2024 11:07

It appears randomly every month when my UC payment is pending . Sometimes shows 4 days in advance, other days only 2 days in advance .

sjm100 · 03/03/2024 12:11
