Hi my ESA has been stopped since june 6th.
I went for my medical and was only given 6 points. I suffer from depression and anxiety. The woman that i saw told a load of lies even answering questions herself that wasn't even asked of me.she also stated in the letter i could have a wheelchair. I have had no money for over 7 weeks. I put in my Mandantary reconsideration and has been fobbed off for the last 2 weeks saying someone will give me a call back. Finally yesterday i received a call saying they haven't even forwarded my mandantary yet as it's been left under a pile of paperwork and the'll send it today. Been to doctor ang got a certificate for 2 months saying i'm unfit for work that i've got to take to job center. My question is how am i supposed to get free free persciptions now as the only money i receive the basic pip care for pip and that all goes on covering my bills? sorry for long post just at a loss of what to do at the moment.

Hi @lindy26,
I'm sorry to hear about the problems you've been having with ESA. Were you sent your mandatory reconsideration yesterday in the end?Liam
