It can't be to do with initials. Age or N.I number?

I have mine , my surname starts with “o”
I was FaceTiming my Daughter last week , she had her coat on ! I thought she was going out , but no , this is what she is wearing indoors, so I am sending her half of my payment, and her Siter the other half

I don’t know if it is relevant but my surname begins with B.
If you are later in the Alphabet it “ may take some time”
It will be interesting to find out.

I was wondering about that. My health problems mean I feel the cold badly. We are fortunately not as badly as some on GN, but are still very wary of costs, especially after our recent decable with Scottish Gas.

I’ve been looking out for mine as I am noticing from my Smart meter display that even with the bare minimum of heating, switching the lights off etc, I seem to be clocking up about £1 more each day than in the summer.

Thanks ann. I was wondering when payments would kick off.

This payment has hit my bank account today and I am very thankful.
Being over 80 and on my own it is £600 .
When my H was alive and we didn’t get the extra cost of living payment we would donate it to charity every year.
Now I am on a much reduced fixed income I do donate some of it but am very grateful to be able to keep warm and cozy.
