    No idea!

    Any clue as regards what stage you are at with your ESA? For example, are you appealing a decision made?


    Any clue from the amount?


    Has it always said this or has it changed recently? Is it a one off payment?


    Sorry for all the questions but I'm wracking my brains to what it could stand for!

    i was in WRAG, but i appealed, so now i'm in the ESA Support group.

    it's said "EES" when i was on WRAG during the appeal and when i got my backdated Support Group payments and since i've been on the Support group amount.

    i've only looked at the last few mths...it's 'cause i only just noticed it.

    i'm confused too LOL:p
  • If it's any help mine is called EESA - why an extra E I have no idea.
    Probably just an extra letter needed for some reason to make transfer payments work?
