    Update on change if dates – My car is due to be delivered on Tuesday. I also get paid DLA on Tuesday. My letter has changed and now says payments start the 17th August. So does that mean I will get paid mobility allowance on Tuesday still ?

    17th is the Wednesday and your getting the vehicle on Tuesday the 16th.

    Do you get your allowance on the Tuesday evening? for Wednesday or monday evening? for Tuedays.

    Payments will start once you have collected your vehicle from the dealership. They will be deducted from your qualifying mobility allowance every four weeks, then paid directly to us by your benefit payment agency.

    Personally I would think it takes them a few days to set it up after you get the car not the next day as the payment of your allowance would already of been processed for the bacs transfer to your bank.(but i could be wrong)

    If your payment arrives in your bank on the monday night for Tuesday, then you haven’t yet picked up the car and the payment should not be taken, until you next payment day in 28 days.

    If it’s on the tueday night for Wednesday then it might be possible the payment is taken. Only a few days now so I guess you’ll findout soon.
