Scan date 30/07/26. I called today for an update and they said a decision was made today. Called back as I can’t wait and was told my DC has been awarded MRC

Congratulations

@ShinyBeans have you heard anything? Im close to your SC so following you lol! X

No nothing yet! I think it will be another couple of weeks judging by the times other people seem to be experiencing. Is yours a new claim too? I did call last week and the person I spoke to said everything looked good with the claim and they didn't need anything more from me so fingers crossed! x

Yes new claim here too, and I'm completely clueless to everything so Im hoping Ive done everything right!! My scan date is 24/8 and have had a text and a letter but heard nothing else! So im sitting and waiting but found this thread so im watching things here! Xxx
