Hiya all.
I had my pip suspended end of December 2017 as my illnesses have worsened. And my ESA benefit reduced too. I passed my ESA assessment and was in the support group as I work 10 hours a week.
Dwp said ESA benefit is connected to pip and that's why it's reduced.
Are they right???? -

@suespac Are you waiting for reassessment on PIP? Are you in a full UC area?

Hiya, I was turned down twice on a mandatory reconsideration and now I'm waiting for a tribunal date. Keep ringing but keep getting told "we've got up to 32 weeks to get a date for u", which will be in Oct and all this started in December 2017.
