How long did everyone wait for copy of report? X
-
I ordered mine on a Friday morning and it dropped on my door mat on the Tuesday! So given I’ve waited a week for my award letter, it was very quick lol I wish my award letter was as quick as I need it to order my car!
-
Asked for mine last thurs still havent got it lol x
-
They do say 7-10days. I guess I was just lucky lol
-
Im having to stop myself phoning them everyday im so impatient lol x
-
Im so sorry to hear of your desicion carebear im beginning to think i dont want to know mine now ?x

@carebear41 it is impossible for assessors to have in depth knowledge of all conditions they may come across and indeed not required
They are assessing your functionality and ability to carry out basic living activities
The onus is on the claimant to provide enough anecdotal evidence to demonstrate their difficulties
The assessor forms an opinion on what has been presented to them
Also they are making recommendations the buck stops with the decision maker -
@carebear41 that is just the worst! There was so much missing from my report and things I told her she got wrong and others I think she just made up. You sound so much more deserving than other that I know too. People who claim they can’t walk yet I see them walking fine round supermarkets and shopping centres!
I hope you gone into detail on your MR and if your able back it up with any extra letters/reports from health professionals and just as important your caregiver. Hopefully they will reconsider. Also get your MP on board. They can help too. Let us know how you get on -
Find his web site and there will be a link for his email on there. Explain your battle with pip and he will write to them for information and help you. Make sure you include your address to confirm you line in his area and your NI number for him to use a a ref for the DWP.I understand very much how you feel and like yourself I never dreamed I would be where I am today in terms of mobility etc. Make sure you make use of the experience and knowledge of people on here. Don’t forget Scope is here to help us too. Your never alone care bear no matter how much it may seem that way. Your always have support

well im confused (doesnt take much) i phoned pip he said desicion made he thinks nothing showing his end only payment showing his end is the one thats due 30th. This month for normal amount which has me thinking its gonna be my last one think i have lost my pip altogether ?x
-
Hi @kaishalewis sorry only just saw this?! Just want to check are you saying the person on phone said he thinks a decision was made but he can't see anything his end so doesn't know? Or did they say a decision has definitely been made but he wasn't able to view it yet? Sorry just making sure I'm reading it right! And the payment on 30th probably is the normal one you're due I would think if you were getting money paid they owe you because of a mandatory reconsideration /appeal it might be separate as need to be worked out? I could be wrong though... Unless maybe you have had more information since 2 days ago? Hope so because I like you get easily confused and I'm dreading my decision etc now!
-
I called them back because i was left really confused after that phone call a desicion deffo hadnt been made i still havent got my report either ?♀️X
-
Flipping heck! It's like an emotional roller-coaster!! I thought they would be trying to make things less confusing!
I spoke to them again yesterday and never end up feeling any better about the whole situation! hopefully they will make a decision soon and you can then relax a bit! Hoping we all get the news we are waiting for as soon as possible because I don't think my nerves can stand much more of this!
Il keep you informed if I hear anything back from them? Take care hun and as fecked up as it all is please stay strong ????? xx -
Well guys its a waiting game for me too..im not expecting a good result to be honest i felt my asseseor was not interested at all..i know i ballsed it up maybe im too honest and polite..so If i dont get awarded my MR will be going in..waited 7 months now

Omg when was your assesment again..? Im fed up with the whole lot if it yiu go through all this to be deflated its a total disgrace
Im not asking ir saying i deserve anything but some help would be beneficial for me..the whole system.is a joke. -
