Has my PIP payment date changed?

Hi everyone.
4 weeks ago I changed bank accounts and at the time my PIP was due to go into my old bank. They had to redirect the payment and therefore it was 2 weeks late. I only got it 2 weeks ago.
If my payments had stayed the same I would be due to get my payment of PIP tomorrow (The 27th) however my online banking is showing no pending transactions. This means no money is due to go in.
I haven't had anything from PIP to say they'd be changing payment dates - I figured my payments would continue to come at the end of every month and that the 2 week delay was literally just a delay and late payment.
I intend to call them later when the lines open to see if there is an issue, but the problem I've got is that I have no money at all right now. I was relying on my regular end of month payment as I expected nothing to change :-(
Any input?

  • have you let PIP know of your change of bank details?

    if so, then it should be in tomorrow as usual. If you have not advised them of this, then there may be a delay again, depending on how you opened/closed your new/old accounts

    If it's not in your bank then you'll need to ring DWP. No one here will be able to answer your question, only they can.

    It looks to me than you have not told the DWP and the bank is redirecting payments. If so the next payment will probably also go

    into the old account.


    Give them a call and check the bank details they hold.
