Letter is done we think thank goodness for my husband.

We have done it in 3 parts.

1. To whom it my concern. Letter of complaint.

2. Questions and how they were asked.

3. Questions that were not asked at all and are on the form we fill in .

4. The pain they put me through on examination when I could do something

Got hold of my leg and pulled .

Taking it down to welfare rights to make sure it is politically correct and to leave my

MP a copy.

Going to make sure we well you husband has crossed all the T,s and dotted the I,s

If you know what I mean.

Going to wait to post it till about Friday when they should have sent my report already to the DWP.

Think I should make then aware that I have put a complaint in to ATOS or wiat for the decision first ,?

Any idea,s

Many thanks for reading my posts.

i think you do right to complain about atos and the way you were treated its like they punish us or having health problems that they have no idea about they have the wrong kind of people doing the assesment some of which is deliberate we should not have to jump through hoops to get benefits i have been watching benefit cheats and i get so annoyed that they get away with it or so long.keep us posted on your claim best wishes.x

I think you are right to complain definitely it's just the timing. Would it be better to see what the outcome is then use complaint to change that if needed. Or to put it in as part of the descion making process.

I'm sorry I don't have an answer as a tricky question and I have not had the pleasure of PiP yet!

Best of luck to you

Wentalked about the timing but we decided to do it now, then there is no sign of sour grapes.

Even if the results came back in my favour it wouldn't make a difference at all.

It's not about results one bit, it's about been treated like a human being.

And if the results come back bad I can still submit this letter as proof to the DWP that I had complained before I new the results makes no difference at all.

I have never done anything like this before but I am not letting it go un noticed enough is enough that's why I am going to my MP and if needed the papers.

Thank you for your concern.

Fully respect and understand where your coming from.

Personally I think once you've had a Drs Opinion, been seen by hospital consultant it is belittling to be put through an assessment by someone, usually a physiotherapist, who has no knowledge or specialism in your condition.

Fire it off then try not to worry about it. We have basic human rights that the government is trampling on. They cleverly hide behind the law and wording of things to confuse and abuse. It makes me very sad that the morality of these individuals allows them to treat some of the most vulnerable in our society this way. We must all speak up, especially as there are many who cannot for themselves.

Hi

All I'd say is well done! Don't forget to keep a photocopy of it and send it by Recorded Delivery.

Good luck xx

Already done two Copyied for my self or should I say some one has copied them for me.

Apparently the MP,s office will do there own copy and send it off for me.

I think this is to stop anyone from giving them a copy but it's not the same as you send off,

Take care
