    thankyou...
  • I've had a letter each year I've been in receipt of my sons DLA.

    I got the letter about his £10 Christmas payment on Monday, and it was paid the next day along with his usual DLA payment.
  • My daughter had 2 payments last year, one in her incapacity benefit and one in her dla. I phoned jobcentre plus and took one of the payments back because your only allowed one payment. i think they send out letters beforehand and it is usually at the start of december.
    life is what you make it, make it fun !
  • I received a letter on Monday about my son's DLA Christmas bonus - it goes in at the end of the week, with his usual DLA payment.
  • Christmas Bonus is to be scrap next year say ministers of government in next week autumn budget to save the government money & taxpayers.

    No wonder the country is in the state that it is.

    DLA pays alot as it is. But everyone getting £10 bonus payments is a joke. That fund for bonus payments should go to helping people who have nothing.
