Do i need to contact someone i would appreciate some advice on this as i feel at a LOST END. Ive phoned esa on the past and them have said up to maximus..nothink to do with them...ODD to think its them who are having me assessed...not a good start to new year or could it be a omen.......

Contact either your local CAB or Disability Awareness offices for advice and support. If your claim for ESA is successful it is back dated to your original claim date.

Good luck and hope this is the only blip you encounter for the coming year xx

In Aberdeen there is a disability awareness office, I thought they would be national. Try disability action.org

Or type in disability and your city and it should come up with a list of agencies which could help you xx

Our MP got involved when we had problems with my OH's ESA could be worth a try if all else fails. Must be terrible for you as we build ourselves up psychologically for these things and it is such a ket down when we have prepared and they don't happen. Dihope that next time they keep the appt.x

I am so genuinely sorry to read this, and to me I wonder if it is more about staff shortages than paper records? It may help to do what the others have suggested and possibly contact your local councillor via your local council office? They quite often get involved with sort of thing. You are completely correct as the system no longer appears fair to the general public.

I want to genuinely and sincerely wish you all the best of luck with your claim.

All my hopes and dreams for you
