Phone tribunal

Just an update for @poppy123456 @Adrian_Scope. Just off the phone from the most brutal grilling I’ve had since high school (many moons ago). I was not warned in anyway that my award could go down, by judge today or via any paper correspondence, and we only discussed mobility issues, but this was to the point I got agitated and raised my voice, which in medical evidence does say this would happen if put under stress. Unfortunately I will not know their decision until next week in the mail (depending on delays with things that are happening) as they stated at beginning this would be the case either way their decision swings. Judge did state before asking me to hang up that I did extremely well and could hear I was getting distressed. So fingers crossed that next week the wrongs will be righted

I hope you don't have to wait too long.

But dont worry about the grilling as such, that means they are seriously considering the case, and when I won my DLA appeal, I was grilled quite heavily.
What is true is that DWP staff are not immune to restrictions on movement; the inability to work from home and Covid-19. Given the restrictions it makes absolute sense to focus energies on those with no income whatsoever. It was never possible to give an exact date on such things. Less so now.

no what you have been told is not true, then you give reason for it to be true

Any clues from anyone else would be welcome but otherwise I’m out.
