Thousands of people expecting the £150 Disability Cost of Living Payment to land automatically in their bank, building society or credit union account by July 4 can now report it missing online through the dedicated microsite on GOV.UK.
The DWP recently announced that over 99 per cent of people eligible for the £150 lump sum had received the money by June 26, 2023.
This means that 6.4 million people received the money within five working days of the payment window opening on June 20.
