Has anyone else had any problems?

Just to add there hasn't been any recent changes.

    I'd give them a ring, mine always goes in on the dot unless there's a bank holiday or something. (I get it on Monday).
    Be who you are, say what you feel, those who mind don't matter, those who matter don't mind.
    They say that talking to yourself is a sign of mental illness. So I talk to the cats instead.

    If they're saying the next one is due on the 29th Oct, then the one before it would be due on the 1st. Payments are every 4 weeks not calendar monthly.

    Might be worth checking with a phone call though. I thought CB was only paid on Mondays and Tuesdays.
    Anything I post on here is my own personal opinion, and quite likely not the view of my employer. My knowledge may not be up-to -the minute current, but I'll give you the best I can.
