I have just had the most horrendous experience .. In February I received the dreaded esa. I , like others , tried to be truthful ( wish I had lied now ).. What followed has been bloody awful . 3 months of them making mistakes. Insisting I went for the medical ( I suffer with Social phobias) . I eventually involved my MP and that was the very best thing I could have done. She insisted on a paper trail , this meant they had to send her everything they were doing. DWP were involved at the highest level.
As a direct result of Atos , I have Angina ... so angry as obviously I have copd, asthma and other medical issues.
Maybe , I have had Angina for a long time ? But, I certainly have never experienced the pain before ... Surely some day they will lose their contracted

I can sympathise with you on this, having just gone through the ESA process myself.
I've also had my MP involved and I've just had my decision through, without any correspondence from ATOS other than when they sent the ESA50 forms to me to fill in. I sent them back in March and have been fretting about having to go for interview ever since. They've obviously decided I'd be too much trouble and declined to see me...
MP's have direct contact with people at the DWP who can keep them informed of progress and problems. Anyone having problems with the DWP and 'the process' should let their MP know, maybe then the'll all understand the issues we face in applying.
