Re: Unexpected payment from DWP
Per Google AI:
The small, unexpected payment arriving for UK state pensioners in Canada this month is an automatic, one-off corrective adjustment (up to £3) issued by the International Pension Centre to fix a minor historical underpayment on overseas pension or benefit accounts
