    I normally get mine on a Monday but last week I got 2 lots, one on Monday and one on Thursday. I rang them up and they said its because of the Irish Bank Holiday or something. (I live in England). So I didn't get any this Monday because it went it last Thursday. Have you checked you didn't get it last week?

    It was St Patricks Day on 17th March and a Bank Holiday in Northern Ireland which is part of the UK. Generally benefits etc are paid out taking into consideration whatever bank holidays are occuring in any country which is part of the UK.

    Oh good...i came on here to see if it had affected anyone else... mine didnt go in today either?? I get paid a thursday though and never got double last week. I've told them about a change in my childcare so wondered if it was that.

    Will it likely to go in tomorrow or monday as they are bank holidays in england isnt it?
