    Maybe? To be honest nobody can guess times but what I mean is @effie678 put their forms in January too like you and they have just been told when their assessment is so maybe you will find out soon too? Your best bet is to phone them asap so you can make sure you haven't missed any calls or texts etc? :smile: or just hang on a bit longer ?

    I'm sure that feels a bit worrying @effie678. Are you absolutely sure that the telephone assessments you had were for PIP?

    Hi Tori
    I have no idea, I think 1 was for my blue badge but was sure the other was for pip, obviously not. I get ESA but not heard anything from them ?

    Maybe from ESA about the support group? Other than that unless you have saved the phone numbers or got letters about them I suppose there's no way to know...  In any case the fact pip said it wasn't them means at least you had a couple of practice runs? ?? Xx

    I'm in the support group, but I don't think I'll find out who it was. Still dread the telephone assessment as you never know what their going to ask you and as much as you tell the truth, I'm always afraid I'll say something they can twist to suit themselves ?
