Just wondering if anyone has received this yet?

Ahhhh, so that explains it. I had a credit of £150 a day or two into my account and wondered why

Favouritefruits · 27/04/2022 14:58

No , apparently it’s because the government haven’t given the councils the money yet, I think it’s very sensible the councils don’t give the money out until it comes through.

  • a day or two ago
Whitney168 · 27/04/2022 15:02

Yes, mine went in today.

ToiletGambles · 27/04/2022 15:02

Haven't had mine yet, check my bank eagerly each morning though 😂

FlappyCats · 27/04/2022 15:02

Clearly it's varying between authorities then.

TheChurchOfEli · 27/04/2022 15:04

Our local rag said governments have until September to pay it… I wouldn’t expect any council to do anything promptly

juneybean · 27/04/2022 15:05

Some people in my council area have received it, I have not.

AnotherTroyforHertoBurn · 27/04/2022 15:06

Band E, not happening.

JoeGoldberg · 27/04/2022 15:07

No, and when I checked our local council website it was as vague as it was at the beginning of the month. The general tone was 'we'll pay it when your first instalment has been paid'.. but that's nearly 2 weeks ago for me so clearly it's just not the case!

Ferntastical · 27/04/2022 15:07

Not yet - but my LC are saying they aim to pay everyone on a direct debit plan by mid-May. So, tick tock...

Lipsandlashes · 27/04/2022 15:09

Nope and I’ll be surprised if I see it before the September deadline

MidnightMeltdown · 27/04/2022 15:13

No but for some reason I was expecting this to be paid on the date that my council tax is due, which isn't until the end of the month.

Alfiemoon1 · 27/04/2022 15:13

No not yet

ChessieFL · 27/04/2022 15:19

No and nothing on our council’s website about when it might be paid (just ‘from April’).

HCHQ · 27/04/2022 15:26

Yes - two weeks ago (Salford Council) - it was a lovely suprise1

DeskInUse · 27/04/2022 15:28

Nothing for me either

Efortyjive · 27/04/2022 15:30

Yes, a week or so ago

Bearsinmotion · 27/04/2022 15:30

No sign here, council said by the end of April 🤔

PositiveLife · 27/04/2022 15:30

I got mine last night. My council were very clear on the payment dates - anyone paying by direct debit was given a week in which they would receive the payment, those not paying by direct debit have to fill in a claim form and they hope to process those by the end of May

pumpkinpie01 · 27/04/2022 15:34

Not had ours yet - is everyone going to credit their energy company with it or use it for something else ?

BlueSpottedGiraffe · 27/04/2022 15:36

Yes got ours on 14th, 6 days after our DD went out, Wakefield council. I know the council where my parents live out a fb post on yesterday saying they were just testing the software and would announce payment dates soon.

Comedycook · 27/04/2022 15:37

Our local council said anytime from April. That's now been changed to anytime from May. Very vague

girlmom21 · 27/04/2022 15:39

I had mine last Monday

Bluebellbike · 27/04/2022 15:39

No nothing (Bury, Lancashire)
