Has anyone recieved one of these so called dwp letters reading " we expect you to change from post office payment to bank account " ? I read up on these letters and there,s a lot online saying they are a scam, anyone put any light on it?

All looks genuine apart from 0800 premium rate reply phone numbers.

Hi Ray and Welcome to the forum, you might want to have a look at the following FAQ which explains where everything is

Welcome to Benefits and Work

Yes, quite a few people are getting these letters. It is not a scam. When UC is fully rolled-out, DWP will not be able to pay into these accounts. It is not a problem yet and might not be for some years, but it will be eventually.
