I’ve honestly been so irritable for weeks! Can’t wait for it to be over 😩 it feels like weeks are passing by but it’s getting no closer 🚶‍♀️

There doesn't seem to be many (if any?) awards over the last couple to days 🤔

I am so over this waiting now!

@Matilde08 keeping everything crossed you hear soon. Can't believe you have waited this long and they still haven't rushed you through as a priority!

It feels like the DMs have gone on strike! I was so sure they would be making there way through 12-16 Feb this week, but nothing!

Ljstar · 04/06/2024 18:09

@Crazyhouse4 yeah I felt for sure there would be a few awards today but nothing

I hate this process 😭 by the time i'm awarded i'll prob only have 18 months until the next time to reapply as well.. that thought just fills me with dread 😬

My scan date is 14/05 my daughter is 5 in January so i will have to reapply within a few months for her mobility its mental torture the whole thing is xx

@Shazzle88

it's definitely anxiety inducing!

that's if even get awarded, I was on a facebook page the other day and there were a few people being rejected 🙁

I don't know if I could handle a MR, I think i'd have to just give up at that point

Just one person with scan date 8/2 with a pending payment in there bank for tomorrow. It seem awfully quiet with decisions this week 🙄

Last week seemed quiet too! Hopefully means lots of awards at the end of the week 🤞

Dani457 · 04/06/2024 19:59

Scan date 16/2 waiting anxiously now. 😟
Hopefully not to long to get an answer whichever answer that maybe ! 😬

I'm the same scan date as you!

The last time I called they said not to call again until July

i'm hoping some people around our date call tomorrow because i'm too scared 🙈🤣

I’m 16/2 too, he said up to 17 weeks to me Monday even though I was also told the week before I would receive a text with a decision by 16 weeks, hopefully not much longer 🤞

AutumnalApricity · 04/06/2024 20:14

I was really expecting to hear of more awards today. I called on Thursday and all they could tell me was that no decision has been made yet. They said they would send me a text when a decision was made. I'm jumping every time my phone beeps now but no news as yet. Trying to remain positive and gathering additional information just incase I need it for an MR but really hoping that won't be needed 🤞🏼

I hope so I was hoping to have a decision by 16 weeks ( this Friday ) but I think it may take longer now

Dani457 · 04/06/2024 20:26

That's me too scared to call so hoping others will 😂 Id probs be shouted at or something. Seeing people be accepted around the 16th and seen others later be accepted doesn't feel fair 😒 trying to stay positive that it will be accepted but not gunna hold my breath too long.

Hey, just to let you know, you got the weeks wrong. On Monday, you will be 16 weeks, not 17, as your scan date is 16/02.

mumto3withasd · 04/06/2024 20:34

My daughter was awarded today scan date 14/02 and my other daughters that was sent with it same scan date was sent to DM today.

Hi, can anyone answer my question, how long after UC sent It to the decision maker you get answered back, I told UC on the 29th May, and they messaged today saying they have sent it to the decision maker, I told them in February that I applied for DLA and to backpay it till the 20th Feb, so frustrating 😩😫

Kmcx93 · 04/06/2024 20:43

@Matilde08 this is YOUR thread and you WILL get answers this time, I have a good feeling! Again praying it’s sooner rather than later and sending you and your little one all the love and luck in the world 💫💖 x

lol sorry i probably didn’t make sense, when i called on Monday he said up to 17 weeks before hearing a decision but the person the week before said I would hear by 16 weeks which would be this Friday, I can’t see that happening with people still waiting with scan dates before me, also they both said I would receive a text but that seems to be 50/50 chance of happening

Crazyhouse4 · 04/06/2024 20:48

mumto3withasd · 04/06/2024 20:34

My daughter was awarded today scan date 14/02 and my other daughters that was sent with it same scan date was sent to DM today.

Congratulations on your award today
