What did you send in if you don’t mind me asking?

Chickapea77 · 06/03/2024 18:39

Hi! At what point roughly have you been getting a second letter? I had first around a week and a half after I sent the form and second around the 7-8 week mark, is that the usual? 🤔

Was your back pay paid from the day you called until the back pay went in your bank? Or until the day you were awarded?

MummyJones94 · 06/03/2024 19:07

What number are the DM calling off? I had a missed call yesterday off a number from Manchester. I called dla today and they said its with DM so I'm worried I've missed a call from them. Also how long is it with DM ?

My scan date is 13/11

Natbat87 · 06/03/2024 19:11

Congratulations to all the awards 🎉
I am genuinely happy for you all getting the support your little ones need ❤️
They are definitely not doing it I'm date order though as a lot have been awarded after my scan date! It's bloody frustrating!

Gemmaoscar · 06/03/2024 19:12

@bonz2023 ny scan date was 3/11 but on nack of letter says owed from 8/11 to 5/3 xx

KatexCR · 06/03/2024 19:15

Hey 👋
Long time lurker here 😂 (since thread 25...I think).
I am also wondering what number they would call us off. Had Manchester number also but I'm presuming that to be telemarketer/spam. But I've had "Private Caller" call me twice today. Haven't got voicemail enabled due to various reasons.
Scan date = 4/12. Phoned for forms 2/11 and sent back 27/11.
It probably isn't DLA but it's driving me mad who it could've been. Didn't answer both times as I was in a hospital appointment for myself. And I suffer from anxiety and PTSD, so not one for answering calls unfortunately.
I might ring tomorrow but a lot of you have said you got a horrible woman, and I'd just lose it with her if I got her 🤦‍♀️😂.

TIA x
