Hi @Jon7777777 Unfortunately, there's a big backlog, so any dates they give may not be correct. Can you call to ask for an update? 

Aww thank u, am not sure, I would presume if it was posted I would get a sms message like I did when they received it

They don't send text messages when a letter is sent out to you. The date they gave you to tell you when they hope to look at the claim by is just a guide. It doesn't mean a decision will definitely be made by that date. 

Aww ok thank u poppy, I did get a sms when they received it so just presumed they would do the same when posting, as if it did get lost in post u would never know

Thank u very much 

Well I phoned up today and was told the decision was sent out on the 4th of January no more points awarded, I said but I have never received it, so either it was never sent out or lost in post, she read out the decision over the phone and this is why am confused, the reason given why prompting for nutrition was not awarded points originally   was for 1 reason medication was effective, when I put my Mr in all I stated was I don't take medication for eating disorder so it's my opinion points should of been given but now the decision does not mention that but gives another reason why I never received points for prompting I said to the lady why was that reason not mentioned with medication  as If it had of been i would of addressed that issue as well very confusing, she said she would post out the decision letter again and do a second Mr and asked me to send evidence in that I gave not already done to address the second reason this is ridiculous 1 reason why points not awarded which I quite clearly proved to be untrue now a another reason why points not awarded what's going on help much appreciated

You can’t request another MR because you’ve already done that process. 

You can now request the Tribunal and you can do that online. As you will be outside of the 1 month timeframe you will need to give a reason why you didn’t request it within the first month. Not receiving the decision letter is a good enough reason and the Tribunal are highly unlikely to refuse a late appeal. 

Thank u poppy but if I can't have another Mr then surely the second reason mentioned later should of been included surely it cannot be right to with old reasons and add them later

Difficult to advise without seeing the original decision letter and the MR decision letter.

Most MR decisions remain the same anyway as only about 23% of decisions change at this stage. 

I also note that you went against the advice on here and rang to request the MR, rather than put the request in writing. This isn’t something we usually advise.

The original decision letter soley stated 1 reason why prompting was not awarded based on medication effective no other reason, so I proved that by medication, the lady read the decision letter out from Mr and it did not state anything like we accept u do not rake medication for your eating disorder points award that was not mentioned instead another reason so if I can't have second Mr how do I address that point hence all there reasons should of been put on the first decision letter,
