No benefit payment & 1st April changes.

This is a serious question.

My Income Support was due last Tuesday 26th) but it didn't get paid. I rang on Tuesday and was assured it was simply an error & would be paid on weds. No payment on weds, told it would go in on thurs. rang in thurs & told it would go in that same day. It didn't. Obviously there's no payments over Easter. I've been left totally high & dry. No support agencies are open over Easter.

If I don't get a payment Tuesday morning (2nd April) then I'm totally screwed. I'm struggling for food now & have 3 kids. No family, no savings & pretty bare cupboards.

All my Direct debits go out on 1st of the month - housing, mobile phone (so can't ring council/DWP) council tax (yep now I have to pay, I set up DD but I'm going to default on first ever payment!!)

I know all support is changing from 1st April, so if I don't get a payment on 2nd April, what do I do & where do I go?
