@NurseMumKR congratulations! I'm same scan date for my twins. No decision was made yesterday morning. Does anyone know if they would send a text on a Saturday if they award today? That's if they send a text at all.

I have seen on an FB page that im on that people have received award texts at the weekend. Apparently they have an overtime team working mainly from home at the weekends cos of the massive backlog they have.

I haven't had a text yet can just see the payment pending. I'll let you know if I do receive anything. Hopefully you won't be kept waiting much longer.

I can see a pending payment for Monday!!!!!!! I had myself convinced we would be declined. We are in the referral process for ADHD which in itself has been a battle.
My scan date was 16/6. 18 weeks yesterday. Went to DM on Tuesday xx

Amazing news! Congrats x

Ahhh it's such a horrible wait. It's the not knowing isn't it. Yeah I've not sent much evidence I might send some more information as i think I have 2 or 3 weeks left to wait x
Good luck to all waiting x

NurseMumKR · 21/10/2023 07:28

Thank you! I hope you aren't waiting too much longer.

I'm the 6th, I'm going to send more evidence on Monday next day delivery and give them a call Thursday. I've seen other people with similar dates on here been told to call around the 13th November. Have you had any texts or letters? xx

Show quote history

I'm also 6th and phoned Wednesday , their systems were down at the time so they couldn't tell me much. He told me to call back by 23rd November if I hadn't heard anything by then. I've had 2 texts and one letter. ( Sorry to jump on I know your reply wasn't for me) just haven't seen many other people with the same scan date as me. Feels like the wait has gone on forever!

@Muva306 Hi , how do you a MR if you get declined, do you have do it straight away in a certain time ,

Muva306 · 21/10/2023 00:58

@Rosey1992 i was declined back in August, did a MR in September and was awarded HRC and LRM last week

Muva306 · 21/10/2023 00:52

@Cocopops22 I was awarded Wednesday 11th, received backpay on Tuesday 17th and 3 sets of letters on 20th - 1 was award letter, 1 was notice of receipt of MR and 1 was the MR being overturned. Xx

does anyone know what the chances of declines are, Im new to this and only seem to have read everyone's awards, which is absolutely fantastic. I'm just getting so nervous as time goes on. Convincing myself im going to be decline for my 11 year old

I also am feeling like this, I’ve seen quite a few declines on fb but not so many here.
I think it often falls down to who’s desk it lands on as have seen some declined for things you wouldn’t expect to be and then others saying they were awarded with no evidence etc. X

Am I allowed to name a right to choose provider on mumsnet? Sorry first time posting, got referred on Monday by our doctors for child adhd and we are being seen on Thursday!! No titration though. If I am allowed to name them on here someone let me know and I will post their details.

I know exactly who you are on about, my LO has just been assessed with them and for anyone wondering the clinic is named on my tiktok account!

Fingers crossed for you @MummytoSENfreya nothing worse than seeing others after you awarded! x

@Thenoseymother i can picture myself getting escorted out the surgery 😂 did private cost much?

Not exactly DLA related but has anyone who has requested right to choose referral via their GP had them refused? Our GP said they can’t do them and don’t apply for funding so we have to just wait on the NHS waiting list. Surely it defeats the object of right to choose?

Yep, we had this. The GP refused and said they don’t do it for children in our local authority. I know my GP do right to choose as I actually used it for my diagnosis. However they said they don’t for children and that was that. We are now going private! Seems really unfair!
