Change Bank Account - Inform PIP

Hi, like a lot of people, I have tried calling the PIP helpline but not getting through. I am currently in the process of changing my bank account via the Current Account Switch service and it will be switched over in a few days. Can anyone confirm that the Current Account Switch service update information they send will be enough for the PIP department to change my bank account? or will I have to spend hours of my life trying to get through to the PIP helpline? many thanks

    Yes it will be.
    The DWP might call to confirm that you instigated the switch.
