Has anyone lost their DHP for spare room tax due to the change from DLA to PIP and lost most of what they had previously been entitled to? 
Have you appealed and if so, what was the result and how long did it take to receive the final answer?

    It annoyed myself when I was on indefinate award form 2009 the low and belold Duncan Smith put his two bobs worth in,then the process began on this PIP.Clan this government not see that us older people do begin to fall apart in some way or another,When this happens conditions do not get better they get worse over time/age,unless this government has found a magic potion that changes this.The only potion they have is cut cut cut.
