....how often have you had your claim reassessed? I have been on it since 2008 and had an assessment at the start,and have been reassessed 3 more times between then and now. I have a friend who has been on ESA for 14 years and he says he was assessed at the start but has never been reassessed. Really? I thought everyone on it has their claim looked at at least every 5 - 6 years. He assured me he has never been contacted about this! I just think it's rather odd.

Never since 2014

I've never been reassessed, not sure how long that is though (since they switched from income support and severe disablement allowance).

Maybe it's just me then!

Once 2 years ago. I went straight over from incapacity benefit to the support group of ESA
I was then put in a group with no further assessment needed( waste of their time and money)
