    That's great news. Unfortunately, you will not be owed money from all those years ago. You will be owed money from the date you started your most recent claim.

    Hi @ejay66, welcome to the community. It's good to hear that they've finally accepted your claim, it can be a real fight sometimes. As Poppy already said, unfortunately it's unlikely you'd get backpay in these circumstances.

    I hope you'll enjoy being part of the community. If you have any more questions about anything please feel free to ask 😊
