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 isn’t in either. Bank with RBS & it usually hits as soon as it goes 00:00 Sunday into Monday.. thank goodness I’ve found this, I’ve been going out of my mind with worry and can’t sleep, keep checking 😓 x

Alln17 · 03/06/2024 01:24

Madisnttheword · 03/06/2024 01:30

Mine went in at midnight. I'm Ulster Bank

tgsldbdk · 03/06/2024 01:32

Mine has gone in as normal and I bank with Lloyds

Mercury84 · 03/06/2024 01:33

Just seen this on fb. Looks like it may be delayed by a day 😢 surely they cannot change the payment date without warning and this doesn't explain why some people have received payment and others not.

AashiiR · 03/06/2024 01:35

I normally get paid on a Monday, but my child benefit comes into my bank Sunday 10.30, santander, and hasn't come, my carers has come.

Macandcheeese · 03/06/2024 01:36

I'm with hsbc and it usually shows as payment pending the day before, my bills have all gone out but no CB received in!

Jodiewaters · 03/06/2024 01:52

I am with nationwide and having the same problem🤔never had an issue either with them.

SDadto3 · 03/06/2024 01:55

I’m with Barclays and always clears on a Saturday! It’s now 01:53am and still nothing. This has to be a HMRC processing issue, the amount of people affected it cant be anything else. Multiple banks also!

Kealey04 · 03/06/2024 02:05

Mine is due today and I haven't received it im with Lloyd's bank dont know whats happening very strange

Jbalmforth · 03/06/2024 02:20

Its ridiculous they better send out fast payments to everyone today

Kerryl83 · 03/06/2024 02:22

Im tsb and nothing gone in, panicking as all debits have been taken and now have no money

Woodywoodwood21 · 03/06/2024 02:22

Same here re HSBC, had always shown as pending the night before and is always in by ten past 12 but nothing and no sign of it. Having a minor coronary at this point.... Any one who has payment delayed actually gotten theirs yet? X

Woodywoodwood21 · 03/06/2024 02:27

Lol yeah can you imagine every mother/father in the country trying too get through first thing Monday morning???!! These guys don't seem able to organise a prayer in a nunnery, can't see them sorting faster payments for all..... Still getting worried now but relieved at least to know I'm not the only one... There will be lynch mobs at the doors of HMRC soon 🤔😱😤

Emilyy98 · 03/06/2024 02:33

Mine due on HRMC app as today, usually get it on Fridays 4pm with Monzo, have done for over a year, contacted Monzo on Friday (to try my luck 😂) they said there's nothing due to come in from them at all.

Waited until today but now panicking, makes me feel better there's loads in the same boat though, will be watching the thread for updates as I won't have time to ring first thing so if people could post outcomes please xx

(Also two of my friends got theirs as usual on Friday with monzo😡)

Riqbal · 03/06/2024 02:43

Have you guys received the payment as iv not received mine today it normally show up on my bank up coming payments

Woodywoodwood21 · 03/06/2024 02:53

Couldn't write it could you, two mates on Monzo getting theirs blood pressure rising by the second 😓🫣

Lisaholly88 · 03/06/2024 02:57

I’ve not received mine and I bank with nationwide it’s normally paid by 2am

Jbalmforth · 03/06/2024 02:58

I honestly don't understand how some people can see upcoming payments coming into their accounts. Cant do this on barclays mine still hasn't gone in
