DLA wait times part 18…. (2023)

[Mummyrach13]

Following on from part 17…

I’m 12/7 and my last text message was on the 09/10 too

as any one noticed pattern with text day on how long after last text you had decision?

@Mummyof5kiddos My last text was 16/10 and we have same date

My last tex was 16/10 and my scan sate 18/7

A little while back it seemed that people were being awarded 5 weeks after the last text but I think it may have been a coincidence that's all as others have been waiting past that point. 5 weeks tomorrow since my last text and not hopeful for a decision this week x

I honestly dont no how they work it all out, its confusing, im going to call them on the 17th if i haven't heard of them. They seem to be dealing with a fair few early dates at the mo.

😂 I thought it would be the Monday - Sunday with the same last text dates but its not, maybe it’s the same scan piles they send texts out in 🤷‍♀️

Yes I thought that too 🤣

@Kelz23 I've had 2 texts so far so I don't think it's related at all

So pleased found a letter in my letterbox must of been from yesterday as it was soaked!!! My son has been awarded for the next 5 years!! Forgot to ask for how long when I phoned them the other week.

What was your scan date xx

What was your scan date hun? Congratulations on your award. The wait is awful isn't it xx

@Tmxx I dreamt about being declined last night! First time it's happened 🤣 xx

@Tmxx & @Asdmummyhere it was a while ago now 23/6 x

Oh my god ive been dreaming about it too! I actually dreamt I got awarded though and dont they say dreams mean the opposite 🤔🤣🤣 it's literally taking over our lives!! Xx

Scan date 10/7 second text 2/10 literally not going to ring anymore I’ve convinced myself I have a decline I just need this over with.

@Doymum I don't think we'll get it either, but like you just need it over with so I can at least tell Physio we tried

@Tmxx I was ok up until the 15th week. Sent extra evidence twice then to be told 2 weeks before it gets allocated which will take me to 19 weeks. The last evidence I sent was a statement from his new nursery. I think it's a good statement, it's says how he's 38 months old but his communication development is 4-6 months with gaps and motor skills 12-16 months with gaps, however seeing people being declined and the amount of evidence they've sent in doesn't give me much hope. I just want to be able to provide the things he needs to help him. I've got everything crossed for everyone this week, I'm not going to call again but will keep an eye on here xx

Fingers crossed for everyone waiting!! I just want them to hurry up now it's dragging 😩 I've only called them once the man I spoke to was lovely told me that if there was anything to tell me he would and was very apologetic about how long it's taking, I'm just so impatient I need to know!! 😊 reading through all of these is the only thing stopping me calling them everyday 🤣

I’m calling tomorrow should have a decision by then if not I’m complaining scan date 30/6

Scan date 3rd july fingers x we all get decisions this week with end/early june july dates 🌈🌈🌈

I really hope you get an answer tomorrow hun, do you know if it was with a decision maker or anything yet? The different times/information they are telling people is ridiculous x

@Asdmummyhere I called last week and they said no decision called again later in the week I think was Thursday after I saw a lot of 29/06 dates being awarded and they said with a dm so try this week I’m really hoping I wake to some back pay so I only have to call once more to get the rates x what’s your date hun x

Hey Muva,

same scan date and same reply of them on the phone. Phoned Friday and got told it’s with a DM almost there. But still feels far away.

You have same scan date and message date as me x
