    It's generally paid the first full week in December. It may not now be a separate payment but included in with your DLA or your ESA.

    Of course if you only get DLA and it isn't due to be paid until the end of December then it'll probably go in then.

    Hi beanie :hello:

    I've not received my £10 xmas bonus, which means i won't receive one until after xmas now, unless they make a separate payment.


    Don't ask why, no idea........................................:o

    I have been on DLA from the begining and I have always been paid every four weeks on a wednsday.

    Nannytone you have just been trying to get reassessed for years, trying very hard from what you have posted and you have recently been successful therefore you have been reassessed since you were first awarded DLA.
