Employment and Support Allowance at Jobcentre
Much like JSA, Employment and Support Allowance is slowly being phased out in favour of Universal Credits payments. If you are claiming ESA at your local Jobcentre, it may be the case that you are moved from this benefits payment and on to Universal Credit in the near future, if this has not already been the case.
However, if you would like to speak to a member of the ESA team about your benefits claim or payment, the government advice is to phone the central Employment and Support Allowance contact number, rather than attempting to dial your local Jobcentre. We have provided a call forwarding number below, which will be able to connect your call through to the main ESA helpline. From here, you should be able to resolve most Employment and Support Allowance enquiries, including issues around payments, complaints, applications, and much more besides.
