    The MR stage is a completely pointless process as all they do is pass it to a different manager who reads the assessors report who are supposed to read your MR too and make a decision. A manager is unlikely to want to over ride another managers decision or go against a so called trained and experienced assessors report without a very very good reason too and that's why MR success rate is so low 
    The system has to change 
    As for not telling the dwp about lies 
    I have because it's true it's an actual fact I've been lucky to have proof to back it up too but if they still after that don't change anything and it has to go to tribunal the tribunal will see straight away before even trying to speak with my partner how distressed she will be I'm sure they may even wonder why she's there that's how bad she is you would think you was dragging her into a burning fire 
    If anything happens to her in all this I will make sure there held responsible 
    I'm seeing what they say before I contact newspapers as well. My partners vunerable and weak but I'm not 
    As for the assessor I will have him hang his head in shame if my partner comes to anymore harm 
    I’m dreading the thought of having to go to court. I’m wishing that the MR reviewer sees sense and gives me back my enhanced daily living. But I’m not holding my breath. I’ve read far too many stories that the MR is ever successful. I wonder why they even have that as a part of the process. :/

    This one is a qualified mental health nurse and works for Cahms 
    Yes you heard me works with vunerable children and not far from me either 
    He must be doing this job as an add on to line his pockets 
    How on earth can someone who's job role is to try to help vunerable people with numerous mental health issues and up being someone who has the potential to cause them serious harm 
    He shouldn't be allowed to carry on working as a nurse it's disgusting he's breaking code of practice and his duty of care

    I think you hit the nail on the head with the lining pockets part. In the newspaper there was this one guy bragging that he was making £20k a month doing these reports. And laughing at the reports he was doing!!

    Wow really 
    Actually bragging 
    They must be told to try there hardest to get people off there entitlements. So just lie, lie and lie 
    There must be a bonus doing so and so they have clicked that there lies will be hard to prove and more money for them.
    These companies who are paying them are going to have to make changes soon because in reality the government are losing money 
    If a tribunal is won then the assessor should be made to pay back what they were given as in my eyes they have been paid for nothing

    This is why I’m convinced that they have quotas set to fail people. When I read that I almost chocked on my cup of tea! Isn’t it alarming?!?!!

    Wow how awful.
    My partner won't ever trust a mental health person ever after this me and her GPs have tried for years to get her to see someone and we if she could be helped.
    Knowing this pleb is an actual nurse has impacted on this too

    It's like a purge there picking on the weak who may not have the frame of mind to fight there corner 
    Suicide is on the increase and I wonder why
    It's like a hatred towards disabilities 
    I seen a post somewhere last weak where the DWPs attitude was if Stephen Hawkins worked then so can anyone. 
    Since when did everyone get the same finger print.

    I’m sorry you’re going through this fiasco! I guess it can only get better. Hang in there!! X

    Thank You and hope your MR gets seen to quickly.
    Not all DWP workers are scary some are nice.
    If you phone them don't be put off by the ones that sound like strict trunchbulls there only advisors at the end of the day. 
    If you are struggling with the waiting time and it's effecting your health then contact them ask to speak to a manager. They do listen and have the ability to push your MR forward even if it's not going to be good news at least you can then press on with the tribunal.

    To be honest I am gearing up for this having to go to tribunal as I’ve not much faith in the MR process - I’ve read far too many stories of them never being successful. Who knows maybe I may get a decision maker that sees sense - stranger things have happed I guess.

    On'y 19% of MR decision's change and most people have to take it to Tribunal. The process is very long and a lot of areas have backlogs in excess of 1 year.
    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.

    Try to look at it in a positive way it's 1 year to build up a very good case and smash it I say

    That’s such a kind thing to say. Thanks x but the thing is: I’ll have to live on so little while this ridiculous exercise takes place. I’m having sleepless nights. And since Monday I’ve not even slept. Today I had a letter saying my esa was being reduced by over £65 per week too. But thanks

    I hear you struggle2222 I'm just trying to help you look to the future which although seems a distance away will happen and you will win in the end im sure of it. Stay on here like me it really helps to see we are not alone on this.
    Don't give up it's what they want.

    That’s another conclusion I’ve come to: they want to make it as difficult as possible so people just accept their decision and quit !
