    I never got a letter explaining anything in May, just an extra payment, and then about 20 quid extra per week from then on...

    Was that not just the annual renewal? They should send a renewal letter each year.

    No, that was after the annual renewal. I had my ususal 4 weekly payment of £526.72 10th of May, which meant I was getting £131.68 per week, then I had another payment 12th of May of £488.16, which led to my weekly payment being reduced to £113.67, until I now had another extra payment & I am now getting £108.85 per week instead. Neither of the extra payments had anything to do with the annual renewal, as my annual award amount has not changed, it's just that because they've made extra payments, it reduces payments for the rest of the year.
    I don't think I can hang on til Friday...
