hi rosehip-they tend to send an acknowlegement out on most correspondence it's probably in their instructions to do this- take care and fingers crossed-hope you get good news when it comes-julie51 :) xx

Hi yes i got a letter like that last week then aweek later got one saying they cannot look any further into my claim as they need to get in touch with my GP so hopefully in 2 weekds should get a yes or a no pob the latter but there you goif it is i will not appeal i will leave it a good few months love to you diddle x

I got 2 letters on same day... 1 saying they were looking into it and would be asking my dr for info, in the other letter said I would not be getting dla, I phoned the Drs and yes, they never asked for info, got welfare rights involved and was told it's standard practice of them to send refusal letter so just keep appealing, which I have now done and the letter back says it's a 27 to 31 week wait til a hearing date will be sorted, long process!
