Tax credit - anyone got a date for the £500 payment yet?

I see a lot of tax credit recipients will be getting a £500 lump sum rather than the £20 a week - but has anyone had it yet or had a date for it? I get a small amount of tax credits and can't figure out if I'm eligible for the £500

I got a scam email, about this.
We do not need to do anything to receive the £500, so please if anyone else gets an email saying you need to click the link to claim, just ignor it.

Morning,I had no text or letter and mine is being paid in tomorrow.

Nicolan5254 · 15/04/2021 06:21

Morning all, I’ve just been reading up on the Facebook page and there are a good few people who have said they have had their payment today and some are pending to go in tomorrow so looks like they’re starting to pay out Smile

For the people who have payments showing for tomorrow is Friday your normal TC payment day?.

ChippyDucks150 · 15/04/2021 07:14

What bank are you all using? My pending never shows payments that are going in, only ones that are being paid out. Bank of Scotland here.

NikP1 · 15/04/2021 07:17

HSBC showing going in tomorrow.

TopBitchoftheWitches · 15/04/2021 07:20

What about if on a zero hours contract but work over 16 hrs? And get both credits?

Samcj02 · 15/04/2021 07:52

I’ll keep my fingers crossed for tomorrow 🤞🏻. My bank doesn’t show pending payments Hmmx

TheChild · 15/04/2021 07:55

I just checked our online banking and the £500 is showing as pending so should be in our account tomorrow. We bank with First Direct who are a part of HSBC. Keeping my fingers crossed for everyone expecting the payment that it also comes tomorrow!

OneRingToRuleThemAll · 15/04/2021 07:56

I'm also with HSBC and it shows that it's going in tomorrow.

Justfornothing · 15/04/2021 07:59

My bank doesn't show upcoming payments. I've been checking everyday this week as soon as I wake up Grinhope I receive mine tomorrow.

HSBC. Worth it for incoming pending payments showing alone
