Poppy does not like being tagged and does not receive notifications. When she sees a post she will respond in her own time if she so wishes.

there is no way for us to know what is behind what you were told but my own inclination is to take it at face vale.

@calcotti thank you for your reply, I hope not to have upset poppy, not my intention in the slightest.  I am yet again being overly anxious, I tend to focus on something and I shouldn't,,  I should just wait and see,,,

@BranwenMôn hi I had a missed call from a withheld number, for some reason my phone blocks them and I can't change it. Anyway I thort could it be pip, so I rang the MR line, and spoke to a guy who said my claim, its being looked at and they still haven't made a decision,,, 🤔😬😳

DWP don't usually ring from a withheld number.

Ollyoyster

OK, thank you for the reply 🙂

You are welcome @Ollyoyster. It is the very least you deserve.

I can hear you have been feeling anxious. Is there anything, in particular, that might reduce your anxiety and make this feel more manageable for you at the moment?

Please don't hesitate to let us know if we can do anything else to support you. We are all here for you and listening to you.

Take care for now and we will look forward to, hopefully, hearing from you again soon

I rang up again today, the lady said I can ring up for updates, and apparently they are looking at it but they still haven't made a decision yet🙄,,,

Exciting times - and stressful waiting for a decision too. 😱 Have you requested that the DM calls you before making their decision? Fingers crossed good news comes your way soon 🤞🏼

@BranwenMôn hia,, no,, 😳do you think I'm too late in asking now???  I didn't even think of that, its a great idea to actually speak to them 🙂

It’s worth ringing them and asking them to place a note on your file for the DM to ring you before they make their decision - I did and it gave me the opportunity to explain my limitations etc. 👍🏼

@BranwenMôn OK thank you I will ring up and give it a try, great idea thank you 🙂

That would not have been PIP. If you're called from a decision maker it will be a 0800 number. They don't always ring so please also be aware of that. They will only ring if they have questions to ask.

Ollyoyster

OK thanks poppy,,  ☺️
