I haven't got a fixed abode and ice been told that I have a brown envelope waiting at my correspondence address but I cant get there atm due to my health, its only been a couple weeks since my appeal has been allowed and I've heard that people get a phone call regarding hospital stayss and bank details before any backpay etc is paid now I'm freaking out that the letter is to tell me that they are asking for an appeal. So my question is does everyone recieve a phone call before appeal payments are put through and is it only an error I law that the dwp can request an appeal???

    Hi,

    If you've recently won your Tribunal then yes usually it's a phone call or a letter regarding hospital stays etc before payment is made.
    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.

    I personally never had a call or letter about hospital stays, but mine was a DLA tribunal, and maybe this is a new process for PIP?
