    I got my DLA today and no sign of the £60.
    DLA is the only benefit i get coz i work. Never mind, at least i know it has to be there next month :j

    Was gonna use mine to fill my gas meter, but since the worst of the cold weather seems to have passed, i guess it will go in the holiday fund :D

    the £60 bonus is for people claiming DLA and Carers allowance if your mum got the £10 christmas bonus with her DLA then she will get the £60 bonus as well xx

    Just checked our bank account and my OH's £60 has gone in today, he gets incapacity benefit and income support paid together.

    Someone posted on the Disability and Dosh board yesterday saying that if you get your Christmas bonus paid with your Income Support the £60 will be paid this week.
