another thread got me thinking,my transfer from ib to esa without assessment and into support group,says will be paid from 28/8/13 to 26/11/13,and yet when i phoned and asked they said it was for 18 months,i thought maybe the 26/11 date would be the week before xmas bonus was added,or am i way off with that and the award is only for 3 months?
i have asked for a statement of reasons,will this clarify this or do i need to speak to them again?
many thanks as ever

    None taken, however it's been raised before and that's always been the reason. Also it was the same personally for me last year.
