What time is JSA paid into the bank?

in Benefits & tax credits
Hi I wonder if anyone could let me know what time JSA hits their bank account. I've recently been made redundant and have started claiming JSA. I had my first payment a fortnight ago and signed on again last Thursday at 9.15am so I was expecting another payment today but its not showing in my account.

Any help much appreciated.

    you can ask them to pay it in today and you should be able to access it today you may have to be firm but polite or you may be able to pick a giro up from job centre to cash at the post office

    Part of the Furniture Combo Breaker I've been Money Tipped!
    As long as you did sign on last Thursday, you shouldn't have a problem getting them to pay the money today. My JC forgot to process my signing on one week and after phoning up the helpline and them confirming things with the JC I had the money in my bank before 12 midday. I was surprised at how quickly it happened, but only an hour or 2 .

    It's only a game
