Hi,
I went for a reconsideration with my pip claim and have received my award. I got what i believed i was entitled to. It was quite a battle and i challenged every point i thought they had got wrong.
Thanks to all of you who offered me support.
Christine
Brilliant stuff! At least that’s one worry off your mind.
Great news!

Nina
Well done Christine!!!
You fought for what was your right and won. Hope you’re proud of yourself…you should be.

So pleased for you, it’s such a weight off when they get it sorted out. Worth the fight at least but a shame that we have to try so bloomin’ hard. I wrote what ended up as a 7 page letter for my mandatory reconsideration, it took me a few days but glad I did it in the end.
Well done for getting it worted

well done Christine for fighting to get what you are so rightly entitled to,its disgusting that we have to battle for it tho it really is.

Yes its one thing less for me to worry about, i caused myself so much stress at the start of it.
It is…when the envelope arrived i was not sure which way it had gone.
It was tough, it took myself and my daughter the best part of a month to get it together.
Yes Pat i am proud. The principle and injustice of it played a huge part with me and yes of course the benefit itself.
Your right Sonia, Some people for various reasons could not do this again making it an unfair system.
Thats what it felt like going to battle and it was brutal.
Hi Christine X. Well HUGE congrats for doing what DWP asked - only for them to batter you down…blood boiling injujstice. But them we MS Warriors know what is right and just. Thank YOU for having the bravery to tackle their injustice and let them see & realise THEIR mistakes.
It might only be a box ticking job for them! Time they learned about MS, it’s affects etc. Living with MS, let alone the uncertainty, plus increasing symptoms worsened by stress, should, in my mind, automatically grant MS’ers at least the same level of PIP as the applicants DLA to the PIP. It would be a cheaper, quicker & more effective system, evidence based on a Neuro’s report of the MRI ,
I suppose that’s too simple for them to comprehend. Far easier for them to put you through the battle field. Well, they might have won the first battle, but you, Christine, have proved how to win the whole bleedin’ war!!
Congrats, glad for you & you’ve added to the stats of DWP wrong doing! You’ve done well for us all…thank you. I hope you are able to relax & recuperate.
