DLA Wait Times - Part 28

[FlutterByASD]

Thread following on from part 27

@EEFO1234 scan date 28/09, same as yours I believe?😊

I've only got an hour and I'm on hold now, what are the chances I'll get through within the hour? 😅

Positive vibes 💪🏼

Hi all, I am just wondering what's the address to send in more evidence please? My son's scan date was 9th September.

Well done all who have been awarded and good luck to everyone waiting and doing MRs.

Parking for updates 27/10 and just put in for a mr on lrc on another claim

Scan date 2/10 told another should have a answer by 5th

4/10 currently on week 17
just spoke to a lady and the phone call way pointless still saying wait up to 18 to 20 weeks But shouldn't be long now until I get a decision not going to ring now until next Friday hopefully will have a positive award before then #Long

Yeah same date, thank you

@EEFO1234 i know how you feel.
I’m just fed up with calling and getting cut off.
I’m just holding out for a text for a bit before I try again.
good luck 🤞🏻

Is it common to be awarded but not receive a text? Lady on the phone said a letter has been sent out. Just worried she got it wrong lol

Is that all she told you? Did she say you were awarded or not?

@Hotpinkangel19 she said we'd been awarded MRC and letter sent out. She also gave us a figure for back pay including when it was back paid from. 😁

Very common, yes. There's a lot of people mentioned it on here over the months. Apparently not all the DMs have the text facility.

I'm guessing I was awarded Friday as money went in today (I'd never rang them as I didn't see any point, I was just waiting to hear one way or the other) I didn't get a text. I'll wait for the letter for all the official details, although I did ring this morning for the first time to confirm rates and dates after I saw the payment this morning.

Brilliant! Congratulations!

Plonking myself here.
Scan date 11th Jan, a long way away yet!
DS' claim tokk 18 weeks the back end of last year so I'm expecting around the same amount of time again.

Are there different centres at this address? I called yesterday for the address and they gave me this but I had to add “disability centre 4” into it to send extra evidence

This is the one you’ll want;

DLA Child
Disability Benefit Centre 4
Post Handling Site B
Wolverhampton
WV99 1BY

Just sent mine to the address on the letter.
DLA Child
Post Handling site B
Wolverhampton
WV99 1BY

hope it gets to the right place! X

Scan date - 28/09
award date - 29/01

I called in today, no text messages received for weeks; just spent an hour and 20 on hold found out she was awarded HRM, MRC. Apparently a letter has been dispatched. Keep going ladies. Our little darlings deserve it! My advice is call if you have later dates in September. Wishing you all the best! This thread has been amazing for updates.

Congratulations, even more tempted to ring now, think I will call tomorrow morning to avoid the long waiting times

I'm going to ring at 9am too. Good luck!

Yes you’ll be fine, the extra line probably helps the postie, you’re all good x

Any October awards today? This wait is awful. Scan date 9/10 x

Scan date 26/10/23..
