hi i normally receive my payments every monday for one child (4yo) i’ve received no letters or anything and had payment as normal last week. Although my payments are on mondays, i receive them saturday due to my bank, but this week it hasn’t come through and it’s not my bank as carers has come through like every other week as normal. No change of address etc and her dad wouldn’t of put a claim in and don’t think i can contact them till monday so stressed at what’s going on

Mine still isn’t in :( - when I get it on a Monday it’s always in just after 12. I could cry

I’ve had mine, I bank with Barclays and I checked it when I got up to go to the bathroom at some point during the night lol.

I didn’t even realise then checked my account today and thought I’d been double paid! Had to check bank holidays on website etc

Martin Lewis has commented on this and how to get help

Looks like it has happened again. I'm with Barclays and I always get my money on a Saturday morning, just after midnight. Once again this week I have not received it. Have they changed the payment date and forgotten to let us know?

It’s your bank that allows you to have it early. No benefits are paid on weekends. My banks doesn’t give early so always clears on a Monday

unicornwonders · 08/06/2024 08:15

Have you logged in to your government gateway account to check ChB payment details? There are reports of some people having had their accounts hacked recently and bank details changed. Hope you get the money by Monday

I would contact them directly as this was an issue a month ago, so it wouldn’t be the same as this which was a widespread problem
