This notable rise is due to the payment schedule aligning with the calendar month, resulting in some pensioners receiving two payments within the same month. Because Wednesday, July 1 falls on the first day of the month, and the DWP pays state pensions every four weeks, pensioners with a Wednesday payment date will receive one payment on July 1 and another four weeks later on July 28.
