New flat, when should I apply for housing benefit?

I missed a weeks payment because I didn't know the rules,
I moved in on a Saturday, Monday after was a bankholiday so I went there on Tuesday and the payment started from the next Monday even though I moved in on Saturday. I was told that I should have done the application online on the Saturday I moved in, I had no idea I could apply on-line before I moved in. If I had done that I would have gotten a higher LHA rate.0
