    For the first time ever I've not got mine and had to phone about it. DLA should have given it as I'm now only getting ESA NI credits but they didn't as I usually get ig from ESA as previously IB. Really annoyed as it took three phone calls to get someone who could actually help!

  • So that's your £10 used up on phone calls then

    ... I got given two lots ... (DLA & ESA) so used up the £10 phoning trying to get one of them removed ... so far as I can see neither has actually deducted the extra £10 from subsequent payments yet though, so maybe they'll forget and I will end up with a bonus after all!

    I haven't received this, this year, which I thought was now due to being on income related ESA, but looking at the link Richard9991 posted, it states
    You must also get at least one of the following benefits in the ‘qualifying week’ - this is normally the first full week of December and includes DLA, I get DLA LRC & LRM, should I have received this?
