Hiya All

Never mind. No increase in ALL our benefits such as ESA, DLA, PIP etc. this year.

Usually we get get a small increase starting from April based on CPI inflation but because inflation was ‘zip’ in September we all stay as we are - apart from any pensioners out there who will still get an increase in their pension.

Oh well…

I got mine on 14th January, so check your bank account again, it maybe that it’s just arrived very late. The DWP seem to have had a problem with paying the so called ‘Christmas bonus’ last year.
