PIP payment

kieran784

Hello all
My PIP payment was due to arrive into my bank account last Thursday (8th July 2021) but I had to have it recalled on Tuesday (6th July 2021) as my bank account was frozen (though it is now unfrozen) so as expected, it didn't go in on Thursday. I have been waiting for the payment to go back to DWP so they can issue a new paymen. I'm hoping it will go in tomorrow (Monday 12th July 2021) as by then, it would have been 3-4 working days since it was first recalled. Does anyone think I could possibly receive my payment tomorrow (Monday)? 
My only hope is that it clears back to the DWP overnight, and then the system automatically recognizes the payment has gone back to them, and then automatically sends out a new payment as a faster payment to my bank account but I'm not sure if it works like this. Any opinions/guesses is appreciated. Thank you

How long did the bank say the payment would take to reach DWP?

They just stated a few days, it was recalled on Tuesday so its been 3 working days so far, 4 working days tomrrow.

Im just hoping if the payment does reach them Monday then the system is able to automatically determine the payment has arrived and then automatically send it back out to me after midnight (early hours of Monday morning) as a faster payment

A BACS payment can take 3-5 working days, but I’ve no idea how long it takes for a recalled payment to arrive, If it hasn’t arrived with the DWP by tomorrow, I would speak with the bank again and see if they can give you a time frame. 

As for automated payments on the return of the recalled payment, I have no idea if the DWP can operate like that and the payment may have to be made manually, that’s something to ask DWP. 

Why was the bank account frozen and unfrozen?

Thanks for that information, I thought it was always 3 days, no more, no less. But if it can take up to 5 days then it could be Tuesday, but regardless i will give them a call tomorrow if it doesn't go in tonight (around 1AM, as it usually does) which is unlikely anyways
 It was frozen and then unfrozen as someone made a claim that the item they bought hadn't arrived but withdrew the claim after it turned up, which is why my bank account was then unfrozen. This is what caused the problem for me as i wouldn't had to recall the payment if it was never frozen for that period.

Assuming that it takes a few days to return to DWP, which would take you to Friday. A BACS payment takes 3-5 working days so even with 3 days then it’s unlikely you will receive it in the early hours.
