    Nope, not received a payment yet. Checked today and another CWP has been activated for this week. It's not unusual for payment to take about a week after a payment has been activated.
    Checking that postcode i see another payment has been activated for you. However, i would remove that part of your postcode, this is a public forum that you're posting on and you really shouldn't be giving out such information.
  • Nothing for me yet either, and our area qualified for one.

    It usually takes about a week for the money to arrive in a bank account after a CWP has been triggered.

    Thanks, that’s what I thought basing it on previous years.

    Mine is going in tomorrow, interestingly the reference isn't CWP but UC.
  • Mine is for the 8th-14th and I’m on UC… my friend on ESA got hers today so do any of you know if I will get mine tomorrow please?

    Nobody can possibly answer that question, it can take up to a couple of weeks.
