jamieleehill92 hi yes had phone assessment 10th Oct, got text to say they'd received it 21st October, and nothing since 😔 I asked for a copy of written report and my scores are identical to yours, which are wrong 😕😳,, so I don't hold out much hope tbh, let me know how u get on and I will keep u updated as well

To tag someone, you can put an @ before typing their username, so @Ollyoyster or @tori_scope for example I hope that makes sense! Let us know if you're still not sure how to do it.

@Ollyoyster yes keep us updated please and I'll keep you updated to. Dont try to count on how many points you get on the PIP test as that's just a rough guide. It all gos on what the case manager thinks and scores you on 😁. Fingers crossed for us both. I'll keep you updated on mine too. If you don't get enough points then you can always do a mandatory consideration 🙏 so don't stop fighting

Though the report is a recommendation only, they mostly go with it and it's rare for them to go against it but it can happen.I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.

@poppy123456 @L_Volunteer hi so I got a text this morning saying We have awarded you PIP. We have sent you a decision letter explaining the award. Please allow 2 weeks to receive this. You only need to contact us if your circumstances change. I'm over the moon.

Good news. That means they went against the report, which is rare.

@poppy123456 yeah I'm so lucky thank you so much for your help by the way. Hopefully I get backdated but I'm not sure when I made the claim.

You will be owed money from the date you rang to start this new claim.
