Pension Shortfall
60 Answers
Further to my earlier post. It’s the end of the month, and my wife has had a total of 3 pension payments this month. She is supposed to have one weekly. I’ve emailed and got no reply off DWP. Not even an acknowledgement to the email.Phoned the number for Wolverhampton, and got nowhere. The answer machine goes through the usual. Do to covid etc.etc . Press 1 for this 2 for that. In the end the person says goodbye. End of call. Anyone know of a number I can speak to a real person. I’ve contemplated going to a Jobcentre. Or is it a waste of time as they’re a completely different department.

Barry I don’t know why the payments are random not roughly 7 days apart. If I get through to DWP it’s one of the questions I’ll be asking plus I’ll want a full investigation on past payments, as it seems more payments have been missed.

Your wife and my wife are on the same weekly time scale. The payments you should concentrate on are those for 23 December and 31 December which have been paid early and represent those due on 28 December and 4 January both of which were Bank holidays. The payment on 7 December should be £10 more representing the Christmas bonus. Hope this clarifies everything. All your payments seem to be in order.
