Hi. Sorry to butt in.

I've received a few letters from the DWP since my assessment and none of them look like decisions. It's more like a list of what money I'll be getting.

May I ask what your one looks like?

Don't know if allowed to post pics on here but basically a letter saying they have looked at my claim again following a recent change and that from 1feb2018 my esa will be £125 week because of a decision on your capability for work and have been placed in support group .....hope that helps you jurph.

Oh no! I'm sorry I made you worry.

I just thought the decision letter would be clear and precise like the pip letters.

My MP stopped my ESA assessment in November 17, I am in Support Group supposedly unlimited. Hey presto the y now want to see me on 3rd July. Not happy, will be dragging my feet and have of course MP Informed. I do not trust this, the new Gestapo within the DWP. To make matter worse 4 replied emails have come from 4 seperate bullies with non UK Ethnicity!!! Fuming is a mild description of exactly how I FEEL.

Not what you're looking for?
