I just don't know if I am going to get this VITAL payment or not.

I applied for PIP back in January and given the long delays was approved in June and all backdated to January.

From what I am reading is the date they are looking at is the 25th May 2022 for entitlements. 

So when exactly do I need to complain from? There auto message is saying 3rd October 2022 but was recorded before the queens death. Clearly for the 25th May 2022 I was paid for but at a later date as backdated.

I really dont know what to do? Can someone advise? The whole process is a total disgrace leaving people unsure if they will get or not?

 They've only just started making the COL payments to those on disability benefits. I only got mine today, many still haven't had it so hang tight.

At the moment there's nothing to contact them about. If you haven't received it by the end of next week then contact them. You are not the only one not to have received it yet.

If the link to claim a missing payment appears on the government page before you get your payment, that's how you do it.
