Oh god don’t be sorry! I sent in the referral letter and a statement from her teacher in the person that knows you bit. I have my fingers crossed for you x

Thankyou 💕 fingers crossed for you to x

@Emma2345 @Margot82x let me know if either of you call tomorrow. I’m so tempted to as there are now awards after our date but I’m also not wanting to hear that we are in a holding pile. Want my next call to be that I’ve been awarded 🙈 so stopping myself for as long as I can!

I’m 23/11 and I called today, they said it’s in a holding pile to be picked up by dm any day now and to call back next week

Margot82x · 06/03/2024 21:35

@Shaf89 I really hope we hear something soon! I’m tempted to call tomorrow to see if they’ve got the extra evidence I’ve sent.. I will let you know if I do! Xx

Yes defo let us know. Although calling has become a joke from reading the posts on this thread! It’s just absolutely ridiculous!

RainsbowandBunnies · 06/03/2024 21:37

@bonz2023 we was awarded 14th Feb they rounded up til Tues 20th payment went in that day for 21 weeks (from ringing for form) and paid every 4 weeks from 20th Feb
Apparently renewals are done in date order so guessing if you renewed early it wouldn't make much difference would be looked at few days before expiry - weeks at most but who knows what 2025 will bring... online only with a bit of luck lol x

God knows then because if it goes in tommorow that would be 20 weeks from ringing for forms but my back pay is defo 19 weeks

£1815 minus £10 = 19 weeks @ £95 she's got MRC and LRM

I am working it out right aren't I?

What date did u call for forms and what date did they award?

bonz2023 · 06/03/2024 21:57

@Shaf89 I called 19th October, I rang Monday and he said there has been activity today and award letter has been sent she's been awarded MRC and LRM but he didn't actually say what date it was awarded

I should just wait for the letter shouldn't I haha

And be grateful I got anything at all not be moaning over a week 🙈🙈🙈

RainsbowandBunnies · 06/03/2024 21:59

Your sums seem right
Maybe yours is 4 weeks from being awarded then 😊 hopefully you get your letter soon confirming - got ours exactly a week after award @bonz2023 x

Your call date was a Thursday - they may have started your payments from the following Wednesday like Gemma’s.
so 25th Oct to 6th Mar - 19 weeks?

srellim · 06/03/2024 22:16

@Sljc13 thank you! I requested the forms 16th October and explained the delay in sending the forms so if counted from then it's 20 weeks? Or do they just go in order of scan dates? Hopefully yours won't be much longer x

bonz2023 · 06/03/2024 22:17

@Shaf89 oh yes maybe, I'll let you know once the letter arrives see who was right haha

Motti · 06/03/2024 22:46

Checking in but might be a bit early. Letter to confirm form was received on 12/12. Have since sent birth certificate as requested & 2 weeks ago received a letter apologising for the delay. No texts.
Good luck everyone 🤞.

Snap, same scan date & letters etc, but wasn't requested the birth cert. Fingers crossed it isn't much long of a wait as some 🤞

KaylaOG · 07/03/2024 07:36

I’m calling at bang on 9am today after getting cut off after 1 hour 45 mins yesterday! Hope you all get awards! Xx

Muvva1981 · 07/03/2024 07:39

I called other day and was told another 3-4 weeks. Scan date 30/11. But my fingers want to dial again . Keep myself occupied !

my bestie from calling to award was 14 weeks but that was over a year ago. I can’t believe the delays

MrsW12 · 07/03/2024 07:45

My friend was awarded in about 4 weeks about a year ago!
