Re eesa

I can confirm that the EESA classification on your partner's bank statement does
represent Employment Support Allowance (ESA). The additional 'E' is superfluous and
does not mean anything. This was due to a misalignment of data during the final stages
in the payment issuing process when payments of ESA by Automated Credit Transfer
were introduced.

I appreciate that this may be confusing and apologise for any inconvenience caused.
