I applied for PIP on 02/02/21 and my application was refused. I then asked for Mandatory reconsideration and it was then refused. I then appealed to the FTT and my appeal was refused. I then appealed to the UT and it was the refused. The UT Said I don't satisfied their rules for reconsideration of a decision. They said I satisfied the FTT rules for reconsideration, but they are not the one to tell the FTT about how to make it's decision. I then appealed for Judicial review to the CoA and it was refused. I then contacted Southwest London Law Centre and they said I have to pay £3000 for them to take this case further or I leave till I have the funds for legal representation. They said since I don't have the funds now I have to make a new application. I then make a second application for PIP on 27/07/2024 and my application was the refused on 01/11/2024. I then took the matter to Citizen Advice Merton and Lambeth and they wrote a Mandatory reconsideration on my behalf. On the 13/01/2025 the DWP contacted me and said they are looking into their decision and will contact me within 15 weeks. On the 11/02/2025 again, the DWP contacted me and said they will contact me by 28/04/2025. When I never heard from them by the stated date, I then contacted them on 29/04/2025 and they said they have posted their decision since 26/02/2025. I told them that I never received it and they reposted another letter dated 26/02/2025 which I received. This is the same that happened when I requested my written report, they said they have posted it but I never received it. They then posted it again and I received it. The DWP don't seems to take about how my conditions affects my daily living, despite all the documentary medical evidences I have submitted from my G.P, Consultant Psychiatrist, and also Speech and Language Therapist. I have contacted Citizens Advice Merton and Lambeth again and they have got my Mandatory Reconsideration refusal letter from the DWP and they have book appointment for me on 24/06/2025 so that they can this matter further to the FTT. The PIP system lacklustre and I have been treated badly by the DWP.
