Letter From The DWP - Confused ?

Got a letter from the DWP regarding ESA with the title " Changes in the empoyment and support allowance rates payable "
It then says " We have looked at your claim again following a recent change "
" From 3 April 2020 your ESA will be X per week "
Then directly below it says
" From 10 April 2020 your ESA will be XX per week "

Is that a typo or am I missing something ?

  • These letters are just general admin and sent out about once every tax year, i used to get the exact letter whilst on JSA, it is nothing to worry about they are sent to everybody, your money won't be stopped.

    It's just the letter about the annual increase. We always used to get two as well with different dates on them - something to do with part weeks, maybe?

    Pedant alert - it's could have, not could of.
