Good day On 21th March 2015 I received letter informing me that awarded ESA, also writes *We will pay your allowance into the above account from 18 March 2015*. But to date has not paid money. I was awarded PIP from March 2014. 1o have to i wait some days; 2o i will get arrears money from the day the application? or from awarded esa? was wondering if you could help.
ESA payments can be a day or two late when initially started, but as it appears to have been over week you should contact the DWP find out what is happening, the number will be on the letter notifying you of payments starting (or not ).
You should receive arrears from the beginning of week 14 of your claim.
