I just had my pip tribunal after waiting nearly 2 years in total from the start of my claim and it was over in half an hour, they were friendly and to the point but i can’t gauge how it went, now I have to wait to hear the decision they told me they would send it via email today as well to save the wait but im so full of anxiety, wish me luck! Also a big thank you to everyone in this community for ongoing support and information it’s always been so helpful

    I had a tribunal about 2 years ago and I’m sure I waited roughly 4 weeks, but that was a while ago, and everyone’s experience is different. 
    I hope you don’t wait to long, you’ll have a good amount off backpay coming back to you, enjoy it. ❤️

    Thank you that’s insightful, I’ll be sure to give the pip number a call and ask them their current wait times too just to give me an idea as I know they like to drag their heels ! 🖤

    I had my tribunal 8 years ago. I not only won it they told me I was successful before they left the court and reprimanded the desition makers and pip gods for putting me through the stress hard work and effort it took me. Now I don't have to have reviews any more, thank goodness. To everyone who is waiting for results at any stage of your claim stick with it cos they do get things wrong on paper and to be there to put your case forward can change things for the better. I feel for all of you that are having to fight for this as I can honestly say it was one awful dark time which actually caused my conditions to advance quicker than it would of. Good luck to all of you.
