Thanks me too and to everyone else waiting. What's your scan date then same as mine?

Doymum · 16/10/2023 15:44

My scan date is the 10/7 I’ve had 2 letters and 2 texts the last one was the 2/10 I rang to update some details and she seemed nice but said basically not to call until the end of November 😥

Mumtotwoboys121 · 16/10/2023 15:47

@Tiredmamma74 eek! Can’t wait much longer now x

Lollypops88 · 16/10/2023 15:54

@Kelmum2three my scan date is thr 3rd of july so not to far behind all of u guys hoping its going to be straight forward my sons took 26weeks i think to come back as they wrote to the doctors and the docs had it for 2 weeks before sending it back

Lovely17 · 16/10/2023 15:56

@Lollypops88 the way they speak to you sometimes is horrible! They should know that waiting this long is a killer haha. Well… I’m just gonna put it to the back of my mind for now & just wait n see… I’ll give it 2 weeks & if I’ve heard nothing I will call again. That’ll take me to 19 weeks x

Gem013 · 16/10/2023 15:59

It wouldn't be so bad if they just sent everyone texts instead of leaving everyone guessing. It's so painfull. My scan date 16/6. Rang last Thursday, trying my best to hold off ringing again.

Mumofthree003 · 16/10/2023 15:59

Anyone else have a scan date of 29/06?
Received my second text on 25/09 so hopefully will be put out of our misery in the next 2-3 weeks.

I did call this morning as I had sent some additional documents last week, but no update yet.

Good luck to all waiting

@Tiredmamma74 eek! Can’t wait much longer now x

He did say it should take a total of 18 weeks, that puts me on Thursday. Let’s see x

Yeah, it would stop people calling all the time, I said to the woman today it said up to 15 weeks on my letter & she said well that’s just a standard letter. The cheek of it though cos if dwp wanted something off us we would have a deadline that we would have to stick to!
my last text was 19/09 … so would take me to 5 weeks next Tuesday! X

Mummytodo · 16/10/2023 16:08

I'm 15/6 and 5 weeks since the 2nd text, heard nothing

Lovely17 · 16/10/2023 16:12

@Mummytodo oh.. well my hope is long gone now then 🤣 I’m just going to let it go until I find out properly because im sick of chasing them now. X

ChelseaME · 16/10/2023 16:12

My scan date was 9/6 I called up Friday morning and she said at top of pile and been with decision maker since last week, didn’t hear anything so decided to ring back up this morning was told was with decision maker and could be into next week 🙄 but this afternoon I got a text saying theyve awarded my son but no details so not sure what rates etc, I was wondering if anyone could help though because they said they had to receive the forms back from myself by 7/6 but they only got scan 9/6 even though they was sent of on the 28/05 does anyone know if they will award me from the date I ordered the forms on the 26/04 or the date they scanned them on the 9/6 please?

Tmxx · 16/10/2023 16:13

Your all doing so well who are like 16-17 weeks! I am 14 weeks and its driving me absolutely crazy! The thought of being like this til week 18 is killing me! 4 weeks doesn't even sound long but I swear time is going so slowwwwww

LizBennet · 16/10/2023 16:14

It depends on the decision maker @ChelseaME, some will backdate but others will religiously stick to the scan date x

@Muva306 MR was awarded for mobility LR and care still the same. Although its been awarded the lady said there's not been a payment released for mobility even though its been awarded from May so she is going to get decision maker to contact me. X

MumtoADHDDiva · 16/10/2023 16:40

Hi all, first time poster but long time lurker here! I'm 16wks today and going to hold out from calling until next week (if my nerves can take it!) Good luck to you all and congratulations to those awarded recently. It's so nice to see so many getting awarded to enable a better future for our children xxx
