Yet another case of the different DWP sections not talking to each other. You'd think that they would at least compare notes when dealing with DLA and ESA for one person. I've got this in reverse, was put in support group for ESA yet awaiting a tribunal for DLA !
I,m still fighting dla,, 3rd attempt, but like you have been put on the go back to work/support group,,so who would like to employ me at the grand age of 60,,with rhumatoid hands that don,t work very often and emphysema,,,its a joke,,,but on the plus side,,i have 33 months to go till i retire,,,,,,,
What about a job as a crash test dummy? Short hours, transport provided and the DWP would probably approve. Congratulations on getting your DLA mate it's well earned.
Congratulations on the award, I am sure these assessment people live in a different world to us, I bet they get sick pay or full wages for every day they take off
Hi Pete... It is a shame the CAB are no longer contracted to help those in need and seeking Benefits. Besides being ill (in 2005) with chest problems (a life long issue) I was a Mental Health Patient and the CAB helped and did all the work for me to get the benefits they knew I was entitled to. Since I have been diagnosed with COPD I have now applied for the higher rate Mobility so will have to see how that goes.
