Tax credits in early?

I'm going to ask a stupid question but if my payments are due next Monday (the 13th) as I get them every 4 weeks, they wouldn't have gone in early would they? I haven't received them and presume it's only the people who would have got paid today (6th of August) that would have got it early?

I'm due a payment tomorrow, and ours went in this morning.

I received the usual CTC last Tueday, as that is our normal day.
Then last Thursday a further payment, but assumed this was the final payment to close 2011 to 2012, as my renewal form was sent in back a few weeks ago.

Then today received another a little lower than the further payment received last Thursday, and not expected in the account until tomorrow (Tuesday).
So I assume the payment that went in today is the new weekly payment.

I understand that today is Bank Holiday for Scotland, but when we have a bank Holiday, Wales, England etc, that payment is received in the account the Friday before, well that's in our case anyway, and as it being Bank Holiday for Scotland I assume they would have received an earlier payment at the end of last week for this week and not get paid on the actual bank holiday.
