Hi D,
You were right to contact the DWP.
I would make a note of the time and date, and who you spoke to.
It may also be advisable to put something in writing, and send it to the DWP by recorded delivery, keeping copy.
I would contact them weekly also to make sure the ESA50 has not gone astray.
See this similar scenario from earlier today :
