@Momof2Life isn’t it bizarre that some people gets letters and some don’t and some get texts and some don’t? We should hear around the same time. Hopefully we get good news and it’s Feb and not March. Xx

Linacre96 · 07/01/2024 22:43

EarlofShrewsbury · 07/01/2024 23:29

Momof2Life · 07/01/2024 23:54

@WhereDidTheTimeGo888 I really hopes it's Feb latest not march 😓
Do you plan to ring at all x

Babzie · 08/01/2024 01:28

I am scan date 28/8 so I am inbetween you ladies if anyone is ringing tomorrow I would love to no where we are at,
Am currently unavailable to do so none of my children are back school and with 6 at home I couldn't not think of anything worse then being on a phone for over a hour 🙈 x

April202 · 08/01/2024 07:01

I'm 5th September rand Friday I'm in holding queue somewhere next two weeks should here

WhereDidTheTimeGo888 · 08/01/2024 07:43

@Momof2Life I don’t plan on ringing at the moment. Although, I've sent 2 lots of extra evidence in Dec and some just last week. I know it got there as I sent it special delivery, but I’ve also seen on here that some have gone missing so really want to know if it’s scanned on. I might wait until the end of January to ring. Are you planning on phoning? X

Momof2Life · 08/01/2024 07:52

@WhereDidTheTimeGo888 hmm I don't know gonna wait til I get the urge to ring, might just wait for whenever you update :) x

WhereDidTheTimeGo888 · 08/01/2024 08:03

@Momof2Life i’ll keep you posted. 🙂 x

Momof2Life · 08/01/2024 08:47

@WhereDidTheTimeGo888 thank you I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you and everyone else waiting x

Momof2Life · 08/01/2024 08:49

Linacre96 · 08/01/2024 09:07

Scan date 01/09 still hasn’t gone to a decision maker yet but as of 4th January it apparently says taking 18 weeks yet I’m on week 19 🤷‍♀️

Claire288 · 08/01/2024 09:12

@Linacre96 we are scan date buddies, I've just rang and was told it should to a cm any day now. She said If I haven't had a desicion in writing or via text by the end of next week to call back.

Ash894 · 08/01/2024 09:12

@Claire288 when she said 18 weeks I’m like I’m 19 weeks she like well should be going soon just keep checking bank account if it goes in your favour 🤷‍♀️so basically waiting another week see if it goes

Been a silent stalker of this thread for a while now but im hoping to find a scan buddy who's still waiting. Scan date 18/8 last txt message 13/11. Rang bang on 9 o'clock today and got straight through! It's with a DM but no decision as of yet, I'm starting to wonder of they're waiting to speak to school which is only back open tomorrow but who knows 🤷🏼‍♀️. Good luck everyone 🤞🏼 x

@Ash894 brill news honey did you get a txt x

faki123 · 08/01/2024 10:16

Hi,
Sorry you keep saying your on week 19 but as i have the same scan date as you, i can confirm that is 18weeks 3days (not 19weeks) they will calculate your on week 19 once you actually start week 19 which would be this Friday.
Already have 2other on DLA (you may too not sure) but just letting you know they calculate the weeks once you hit it. And i all honesty its 20+ weeks now hence the automated line for the first time in 6 years saying don’t ring unless been 20weeks.
I am not saying you shouldn’t - i am just stating that they’ve never had that automation in 6 years😬 i do think thats good they’ve done that though for new claims, as i waited 27weeks last year for a COC! Horrendous timescales.
Anyways good luck i will wait till week 20 next friday on the dot just because my other sons renewal ends on 29/01 so gonna check both claims together.

Ash894 · 08/01/2024 10:16

@zoedavis123 thanks. I've had no text, no letter, no pending payment. I just rang at 9am to see if it had been done x
