Hi I have got a face to face interview on Friday 16th November already starting to feel stressed last time I had to go to appeal to get my award

Thank you and yes I will let you know how it goes just don't understand how you can be awarded something till July 2019 then for them to change it
-
They have to do it that far in front because they are so far behind due to the amount of appeals if they left it till the end of your award your payments would stop before you received a new award

Thanks that makes sense
