DLA wait time thread 42

I have a question, how do you know if Dla are calling you? Like will they call withheld number or with number?

I don't normally hold random numbers but since I applied, I've been picking up all calls but miss calls most of the time. So was wondering what number do they call with?

Sounds good for all of us Xx

What pages are people following on Facebook? TIA xx

Not all is being made a priority. It depends on what the childs needs are for you to be in financial hardship. Mine was done in one working day due to financial hardship. Some people that have stated financial hardship have been told their claim can still take weeks x

@Kaz87
@NoWordForFluffy thank you both of you! ❤️ second I heard her say it, I automatically thought I CAN GET A SHOWER FITTED FOR MY BABY! Just so he can enjoy it rather than feel traumatised from a bath 😭 brought me to tears!
now my hearts praying for @Matilde08 to hear some good news very soon!

Ahh OK, just seen quite a few posters saying they have claimed financial hardship and was awarded within days so persumed that's all you need to do, the wait times are horrendous x

I'm so glad for you 💓 I really hope that @Matilde08 finally gets some good news xx

Good look everybody on your claims or MR.

I got asked what and why her disability was causing financial hardship. So im guessing others would of been asked aswell. Its a horrible wait and your mind thinks all sorts. We had to wait 3 months before we could even apply which is shocking 🤦🏻‍♀️ x

I wasn't asked anything when I asked for it to be looked at sooner due to financial hardship. Asked last week, called today and she said it's first in the queue and just waiting to be picked up.

I got told 14 -15 weeks my scan date is 16/2 and when I phoned last week was told should here by the end of may x

@Persianpoppy I am so happy for you and your little one. It is really thr news yu have waited for for so long. Only @Matilde08 to go now 🤞🤞. I am over the moon for you xx

Amazing news @Persianpoppy so pleased for you 😀

That's good, we are all in financial hardship to be fair looking after our children, they need to sort the waiting times out as it should be 8 weeks, it's annoying, congrats on all awards 👏

This is what they don't get, we are all in financial hardship, that's why we are applying for help which our children, they need to sort thr waiting times out as it is so stressful, 😫 x

They called me from an 0800 number x

@Chan24 are you England? Or NI ?

Fingers crossed they do call and give your your award! X

England.

My claim was in 8th march and called today and a decision was made Friday letter in post Saturday , think that's been very quick tho so hopefully news I want for my girl

Thank you Xx

Congratulations 🎊 yeah very quick and good news Xx

Seems they aren’t sticking to the date order then as that’s about 4 March claims I’ve seen now been looked at……although it’s great for those who have had claims sorted, what about the people waiting still from January and beforehand! @Matilde08 being one of those.
they definitely need a kick up the arse with these waiting times I’d say!

Wow that’s quick. Congrats! My scan date is 19th March. Hoping to hear soon. Although it has only been 8 weeks. Xx

Hiya. Do you follow a particular page for these updates. TIA xx
