Jobseekers Allowance over Christmas

[ClinkatyClank]

When would you expect payments if you're not due to sign until the 11th Jan ? How does it work over the Christmas period ?

If it's anything like mine, the last 2 times I've had my signing on day over a holiday they haven't processed it and I didn't get anything until I rang them. Hoping it'll go in this week, I sign on on Fridays so money due today. Fingers crossed, direct debits coming out too so could be facing bank charges again if they haven't done their job properly.
