After my awful tribunal on Friday and finally hearing back today by post. I won enhanced on both. I cant believe it. I was so convinced i was getting nothing. I've not stopped crying from stress relief. I'm so pleases. Thank you all for your support. 

How long do DWP have to appeal the decision and what are the odds? There was a lot if evidence with my appeal. Also how long for backpaymrnt and when is it backdated from? Also when do new payments start?

Thanks so much xxx

    @HayleyGeek, More of this good news please, the DWP have 30 days to appeal. Once this phase has expired it can take up to 8 weeks for your new award payments to start and the back payments go from your previous award date I am sure I will be corrected if I have misinformed you.

    Congratulations!

    I won a fight this afternoon when I was in town with my kids. I ended up squabbling with another nasty customer when I was about to pay for a couple of new textbooks. Welldone.
