Hi, my name is debbienotdallas! Stressful PIP experience

debbienotdallas

Hello everyone

I applied for PIP 1/8/23.  Had my telephone assessment 21/12 and just got the ‘we have not yet made a decision’ text.  I don’t think they understand how much anxiety this causes some people.  I thought this was a personal message to me saying they were undecided about my claim.  It’s a relief to me to hear that this is a standard message.  Maybe rewording it ‘your case has now progresssd to the decision stage’, or something !? It’s been a very, very stressful experience.

I totally understand the stress of receiving the DWP texts, so you're not alone there!
