@NGTMamma im doing a mandatory reconsideration at the moment. It’s scan date is 8/1 still not had a decision and coming up 9 weeks on Monday. On the letter I received it said 11 weeks but I did have a phone call yesterday to talk through the extra evidence so hopefully it won’t be long now.

@kristie198 I know haha she could've said something a little nicer, as if people aren't worried or stressed enough without them having a dig as well! X

Has anyone done and MR?
my scan date was 9th July, asked for a birth certificate to prove I had a child (which they lost), then asked for more information At Christmas- which i sent first week in January- second week in January I got a letter saying it had been declined, called and they hadn’t scanned the additional information…I’ve appealed it via MR, not heard anything- called today to be told it’s going to be another 6-8 weeks!

I thought MRs were done within 2 weeks!

I’ve had to take 9 days off work in February for All my daughter’s appointments! She’s under 3 different consultants, has ng top ups & on multiple medications per day! WTF?!

Ridiculous thats been declined!

scan date 15/11. Rang today and found out my son has been awarded. I rang Tuesday and they said it wasn’t even with a DM yet. But rang back today to ask about sending extra evidence and they told me the award has been done. Good luck everyone x

I called 2 days ago to be told it would be another 3-4 weeks. Called today to be told been awarded MRC. Scan date 30/11. I would call soon as the sheer difference from one day to the next on what’s happening is immense

012345k · 07/03/2024 14:52

@MrsW12 when was your scan date please? I called the other day and the woman asked why I called last time and why I am calling again so feel like I cannot call up anymore

MrsW12 · 07/03/2024 14:52

They’re banging them out pretty quickly now it seems. I think they must give you the worst case scenario on the phone. I was told to wait 2 weeks and got a text 1/2 hour later!! Now the question is, do I call to see what rate?

STEPH691 · 07/03/2024 14:53

@MrsW12 congratulations hun xx

Lolly966 · 07/03/2024 14:56

@MrsW12 congratulations!! What was your scan date? Xx

Debs243 · 07/03/2024 14:56

I think I’m in the world’s highest holding pile ever 😂 been saying it’s at the top for 2 weeks now x

It was 15/11. It’s phenomenal how slow it goes then how quickly it speeds up! You’ve got this
