@Kelseeyx Glad for you!! How annoying all that stress and anxiety for nothing. Just shows some of them don’t know what they’re on about🙄

Kelseeyx · 07/12/2023 13:46

Now the anxiety of the decision.. Honestly it's never ending 🤦🏼‍♀️

Ames52 · 07/12/2023 13:50

@Kelseeyx Oh that's amazing news - I'm so happy for you. Keep us posted. xx

Kelseeyx · 07/12/2023 13:52

@Ames52 thank you lovely! Will do, watch it now be a decline after all this 🤦🏼‍♀️ xx

Ames52 · 07/12/2023 13:53

Kelseeyx · 07/12/2023 14:02

mumoftwoxxx · 07/12/2023 14:12

I've just sent another letter and an a4 page of more info via special delivery hoping it doesn't take an age to be scanned with his claim. How long should I leave it before I call again do you guys think? I'm at 15 weeks today hoping not much longer 😣

Hardingcl · 07/12/2023 14:14

@Rebeccanew I haven’t had any letters, what does the first letter say? I’m hoping to hear something soon xxx

Jaffacakesrlife · 07/12/2023 14:15

@Kelseeyx amazing! hopefully we all hear soon. xx

Rebeccanew · 07/12/2023 14:22

Hi how do I upload photo lol @Hardingcl it said they have accepted special circumstance in why I was late telling them my change….so basically means they accepted it and I will get backpay but that will tell me on next letter how much etc xxxxxx

Hardingcl · 07/12/2023 14:23

@Rebeccanew made up for you at least you know your defo getting it now. That’s all I want the letter to say they accept it. Hopefully not too long now xxx

Mammalee5 · 07/12/2023 14:28

@Kelseeyx brilliant news xxx i keep checking messages constantly now🤣

For the person asking about payment dates - it's every 4 weeks on the Wednesday from when you received backpay i believe

Rebeccanew · 07/12/2023 14:40

@harding leave a message under payment faster way for a response xxxxxxx

mumandchefandallsorts · 07/12/2023 14:51

@Mariannec i was awarded on Saturday 2nd and it went into my account on wed, so 3 business days. When I rang the lady said my next payment will be 2nd Jan, so I think it’s a month after award day

Purple69 · 07/12/2023 15:18

Hi guys hope you're all ok, just wondering what is a cm? Thanks xx

cocoapple · 07/12/2023 15:43

@ASDmummaof2 congratulations🎉

Mammalee5 · 07/12/2023 15:52

@Dolliesmama so if you have a DM that's training then a case manager (cm) needs to check the decision is right. Also some CM are doing the new claims too to get through them faster

Mammalee5 · 07/12/2023 15:53

@Kelseeyx honestly so relieved for you. Hopefully this time next week we're all crying because payments have gone in x

Mammalee5 · 07/12/2023 15:55

@MrsB97 yours probably went to a DM today or the next couple of days, if you call Monday you might have better luck at getting a decision x

MrsB97 · 07/12/2023 16:03

@Mammalee5 yeah you're right, I'm am best holding off especially since they're working weekends x
