I don’t think they do, I wonder if they ring off with held or number showing

OKJ · 03/11/2022 18:43

@Cass29 No sorry, nothing yet.

Cass29 · 03/11/2022 18:46

@OKJ i phoned today still nothing for me he thinks maybe next week so hopefully same for you x

Kmcx93 · 03/11/2022 18:48

They phone only if the need to confirm things in the form or if need clarification. They called me off an 0800 number it wasn’t withheld

Cazxmxp13 · 03/11/2022 20:16

can I ask what number they rang off was it withheld or a actual number?

Gemma96x · 03/11/2022 20:16

Good luck every1 for tomorrow fingers crossed 🤞 xx

hey everyone, I had a scan date of 4th August and money appeared in the bank this morning. I only sent autism report and school TPA meeting as he’s 11 and went from juniors to seniors in the summer. Hopefully not too long for everyone else now!

Cazxmxp13 · 04/11/2022 06:29

Still waiting on anything scan 2nd August

Kas76 · 04/11/2022 07:02

Scan date 1st Aug and still nothing. I want to call today but was told if I've heard nothing by next Tuesday then call. I just want to know if its yes or no do I can go from there.

Cazxmxp13 · 04/11/2022 07:08

yup that’s the hardest part of it the complete waiting game 😔

BecLew97 · 04/11/2022 07:15

@Kas76 Honestly just ring whenever you want to, I’m still calling everyday. If they didn’t want people calling everyday then they should be more accurate with wait times, we’re about to hit 14 weeks which is ridiculous, plus then don’t help by not sending texts when they guarantee to send one. It’s easy for them to tell us not to call as the outcome doesn’t affect their life in the slightest. I will be calling later on this afternoon aswell

Kas76 · 04/11/2022 07:18

Ok you've convinced me 🤣 will give them a call after school run. X

BecLew97 · 04/11/2022 07:21

Fab let us know what they say! I will call later on this afternoon aswell x

Kas76 · 04/11/2022 07:31

Will do. X

Gemma96x · 04/11/2022 08:10

Hi guys I'm 14 weeks and still getting told not even with a dm yet they told me next 2 weeks. Everytime I ring I get told different everytime so I've got no idea to be fair I don't think they know there jobs. This is frustrating 😤 just want to know yes or no. I'm at the point where I'm feeling in my stomach my son will be declined as its soo hard to get the things in life your children deserve and are entitled too 😪. But good luck every1 today X

Kas76 · 04/11/2022 08:16

Mines apparently been with DM since Monday and ppl with scan dates after mine are getting answers . It's so frustrating.

MissEllie2 · 04/11/2022 08:19

Good luck everyone today 🤞🏼🤞🏼

Shellbod81 · 04/11/2022 08:49

good luck to everyone waiting today , I’m gonna ring again this afternoon, not waiting until Tuesday from what I see on here that how majority are finding out as not receiving texts 🙄

Shellbel10 · 04/11/2022 08:58

Sounds like what they telling people are very inconsistent. Very annoying

acalli · 04/11/2022 09:07

Hi all, my scan date is 5th August, 13 weeks today. I ring every Friday so currently on hold. The mixed messages are unreal x

sarahxdx · 04/11/2022 09:08

Hi I've been watching this thread for a while now,my scan date was 21st July 😳
I had a phone call on Tuesday from the DM to ask what school my son attended because I forgot to fill that part in and I'm still waiting for a update x

acalli · 04/11/2022 09:18

Just got off the phone. Spoke with quite a well-spoken lady who was very unhelpful. Refused to tell me if the claim was with a decision maker or not because “people start to imagine it’s sitting on someone’s desk open and it just doesn’t work like that”. Told me nothing I didn’t already know. Quite bizarre x
