Hi,

that is so good you have had the equipment you need installed.

It took 6 months for the powers that be to sort out my DLA which makes me feel they are not hurrying to sort out the PIP claims. I hope you hear really soon.

Hi gillyb59

I hope that you are as well as you can be? That's good news about your adaptions, I bet its making life easier for you? I will send you good positive vibes regarding your PIP, and please let us know what happens.

Take care

I think that when either DLA or PIP is awarded there should be set timelines and if these are breached then any back pay should include interest. The government put this things in place for commercial customers and you can claim interest when you issue a county court claim for a debt to be repaid, so why is the government excluded. I also believe compensation should be awarded when a case is won at Tribunal stage. This is not about the money, it is about making them more accountable and responsible for the additional stresses they are unnecessarily imposing on already disadvantaged people.
