wildlife said:@maid08 Thanks for the ideas about stopping the lies. You've given me and hopefully others a good idea about the solicitors letter. OK you have to pay for the letter but if it get's you the right benefit it will be paid back many times over and the saving in stress will be huge. I would hand the letter over at the beginning as all the online tick boxes have been done by the end and the truth will have to be what the assessor then remembers rather than recording it as it's given to them.

i doubt the use of a sollicitors letter would be of benefit
it is not evidence
if given at the start the HCP may decide that you are being uncooperative and stop the assessment
they do not have to accept it at the end

Be all you can be, make every day count. Namaste -
and im sure if the intention to lose you benifits that will put a burdon on hp even if told to alter by capita or atos after all sueing hp will be easy a judge will make them attend court and want answers to how they can diagnose someone by sight and when they have no qualification in problem given ???what can they say apart from admit defeat and face paying my 6000 loss to date plus reminder of award im due ??i have in the past taken cars and household goods from peaple puling a fast one so wont feel sory for hp at all

@CockneyRebel I do understand what you are saying but firstly can I mention that as you have not had a bad decision made by the DWP which came about because of the dishonesty of an assessor it may be difficult to understand why those of us who have feel so desperate to not want this to happen to us again. I have had a life time of problems to sort out after bringing up two disabled boys in the days when their disabilities weren't recognized. I have also looked after all the affairs for elderly relatives and worked as and been a carer myself. Sticking to the rules which requires a certain amount of backing down on the part of the claimant is not always the best way to deal with the benefit system. If I'd done that I would have now been on standard PIP for both components and would be feeling doubly hard done by as I managed to increase my mobility to what it should have been had the assessor not lied. I'm not sure what is the best way to let an assessor know that I am not going to put up with lies written about me last year. However by the time I am reviewed, when I will be saying certain new conditions have appeared and other things have got worse, I will be doing just that!
-
@maid08 I know how you feel but please be careful and think through what you are going to do. A woman has just won a court case against an assessor for the lies told about her but CockneyRebel is probably right about how the assessor will react to a letter being given and does not have to accept it. So I take back what I said but it's up to you. Maybe less obvious ways of safeguarding against having incorrect things written about you would be better than being openly confrontational.

hi wildlife nope they do not have to accept it they can just walk out but remmber taped filmed not rude not angry just ask polite please read before we start if they then leave they were liers so u lost nothing if honest there is no problem one thing i will point out my helper will be a district judge who i used to spend weekends with he loverly chap bet they wont claim he a lier as they would me
-
strange it seems they instill fear in what they might do but think they can do it freely when cought out atos capita say they been sacked thats to protect them not us
-
@maid08 OK well you've got the right people supporting you so good luck and please let us know how you get on.

Username_removed said:Not true that covert recordings are routinely accepted by tribunals. One media story about an appeal where such evidence was accepted but no evidence it even influenced the final outcome.
A solicitors letter to a HCP is a potentially dangerous strategy. Firstly it’s just a letter before action and you don’t need a solicitor to do that. Secondly, there’s no action. You have no decision; no assessment; no evidence of wrongdoing; no financial loss. Thirdly the HCP will not walk away. They will decline to accept you dictating terms and unless you agree to go ahead they’ll treat you as a failure to attend and DWP will likely sanction you. Challenging that sanction could take 18 months or more (if you have to go to UT) and if you fail then your PIP claim is dead and you’ve not even had the assessment.
Far better to be clear which points you ought to score and why; what you’re supporting evidence is and then, if you’re not happy with the outcome you have the options of
- MR and appeal for the decision.
- complaint to assessment provider if guidance breached.
- complaint to the relevant professional body for the HCP if misconduct etc. can be demonstrated.

prob with us is being honest and thinking we are dealing with honest peaple we are not we are dealing with cash hungry fake peaple intent on that new car or house or luxuary life on a wage we could not dream about payed by gov we are told over and over any false claims will result in prosecution for fraud yet peaple working for latrge lump of cash per day are falsey ing claims to harm us for being honest without fear of prosecution ??? thats acessers AND mike you cannot tell acessers what points or anything else you can only give how you are day to day but that bit is ignored confirmation from dwp no docters consultandts paperwork no use we use an opinion to make our decision that comes from a medical profeshinol and if need be i can demand copys of calls as each i rung noted time date and person on line calls in are recorded calls out from dwp are not althogh most staff think nothing is recorded but it is
