    Why would they? The 10th is a normal working day.

    cos it will take two extra days to arrive int he bank due to the bank holidays. thought that bit was a bit obvious myself ;)
    just wondered if they would send early or if it would arrive two days late.

    Those who get their benefits on the 10th April (Tues) still get it on Tues even though there are two bank holiday in between (Fri and Mon) So why would someone who gets paid on the 11th get their money over Easter?
    not all on benefits are scroungers and don't need to be bullied!

    Usually my payment is due in today, However I've not received it, My Sign-on was due on the 6th (Good Friday), and was skipped over until the 20th.

    People are saying that it should be paid as usual, but I'm wondering if it will take an extra day?
