anyone around 16/02 calling today?

I can't face it, my son is off school with suspected measles 😩 He can't go back until he has a swab. He's actually fine in himself but the rash is crazy. He struggles so much with change of routine / lack of structure so this week is going to be challenging

Oh no hope your son is ok. I’m 16/2, I called yesterday and was told it goes to dm at 15 weeks and then could take another 2 weeks, even though the week before he said it’s with new claims dm and I would get a text within the week. There is still 12/13/14/15 Feb waiting so I think I will call once those people have had there decision

Good luck to everyone 💓

SD 8/2.

Getting a bit worried now that everyone else's dates seem later. But I did send them an enormous package of additional evidence in it so perhaps it's just taking them a long time to read through it. Assuming they actually do that 🤷‍♀️

@Mez2024 @AutumnalApricity @OneTiredMumma84 @Kell85 thank you ladies 💗

Question: would DLA call from random mobile phone? I had a call yesterday half7 at the evening I couldn't pick up, and then got a voice message left I hardly could understand. But he mentioned my name.. I think my boys name as well and asked me to call him back as it's very important. This all makes me super anxious 😵‍💫

Yes, sometimes decision makers call from mobile numbers. Some work remotely so have a work mobile. Call dla at 9am and say you believe that you received a call from the decision maker

Parking ready for @Matilde08 outcome.....lots of positive thoughts & tightly crossed fingers 🤞

Good Morning all, I’ve had a letter to say that DLA have looked at my daughter’s DLA claim and decided that she is now not entitled to it. She was only awarded on April 29th. There’s no explanation and it feels like another knock

Surely they cant do that, can they? Tell you one thing and then do the opposite. Sorry to hear that x

That’s absolutely shocking!! I’d definitely be calling them they can’t award it and then take it back😱

Kim21 · 04/06/2024 09:46

20/2 15 weeks 1 letter 1 text yesterday seems like 12-20 Feb with dms 🤞 I should of claimed a few years ago its taken till now to do it

Fee89 · 04/06/2024 09:48

@Justkeepsplashing I have so many questions running through my head now. Do you have to pay back the backpay, did you get payment last week? If so then why all sudden stop it. How can they not give a reason. They have to explain themself 😮. What rates were you awarded? How long was award? 🤦🏻‍♀️ my head is pacing for you and think its just put fear in new awards been done 😔 xx

Surely they can’t only award it for a month?! What has changed so drastically and why where they even re looking at it so soon?! 😡 the stress these people are causing is stupid!
please call and ask for the manager to rectify your daughters claim x

ArtfulJoker · 04/06/2024 09:49

Am I right in thinking they are around mid-end feb now? X

I’m absolutely shocked, I received the DLA lower rate on 28th and the back payment two days ago (after I submitted a complaint to the DWP).

Daughter was suicidal over the weekend, I’ve started a new job. It’s so stressful I honestly don’t know why I bother. I’m on the phone now, waiting to speak to them.

I’m looking at the letter and there’s no explanation; it appears to be a generic refusal letter.
