Petition to Government re PIP Requiring Signatures

[Lima6MCT]

Please sign petition

bit.ly/2fIi0MG

Create an impartial ombudsman to put PIP mandatory service levels in place

The DWP want to cut costs, but the costs are rising due to disabled people having to have claim reviewed and then appealed. A high number of cases are overturned at appeal meaning PIP is paid plus the administration of reviewing a case which should have been awarded in the first place.

More details

pip success rate new claimants 47%

pip success rate DLA to PIP migrations 74%

pip success rate average overall 60.5 % (before tribunals)

pip failure rate 39.5%

65% of claimants will go to tribunal

The ombudsman should be able to put statutory service levels in place to protect disabled people and the DWP against failures of quality made by 3rd party contractors such as atos and capita

Thanks for sharing this my friend. I have just signed it but it only has 35 signatures at the moment. So it would be wonderful if as many members as possible could help out and sign this please!

Still only 60 Ken. Can FMAUK help here? This must affect other people with chronic diseases.

[TheAuthor in reply to annacruachan]

Hi annacruachan I will message somebody and see if we can get it on the other forum / site?

Might be an idea to put the petition on face book, this would be a good platform and you would get more signatures, I have friends who have fibro and it will just roll, I am happy to do this if needed

I have had a fairly good few days apart from the pins and needles and ankle giving way.

[Lima6MCT]

It's already on Facebook & Twitter just needs some sharing around.
