DLA WAIT TIMES THREAD 56

[Ceb2018]

DLA waiting times continue from thread 55

@Chels2020 did you end up calling? C

I’m 45 minutes in 🤣🤣

Aww I'm happy for you ❤️ I know its not the result you hoped for but it's, in part at least, acknowledgement of your struggles. Good luck with MR xx

Oh my goodness 😂 fingers crossed they answer soon!

update us all after 😖🤞

No, I m really happy he’s been awarded but I was just hopeful we wouldn’t have to do the MR, and they agreed to back date to when we originally requested the form even though it was quite late due to very complex personal issues.

Just started my call😂 seems I’m in for a long wait🤦🏽‍♀️😂

I know! They could update the music to
something a little more upbeat! I’ll update this afternoon at this rate 🤣🤣

I've just got off the phone to them. No decision made. Ring back if I've not heard anything by the 6th Dec.

Just got though spoke to a lovely gentleman who gave me the whole speel of 20 weeks to get to a dm and then said they have 1-5 weeks from there roll on new year 🤣🤣 x

Anyone else feel so damn sick while waiting to speak to someone. Makes my stomach turn🤮

What’s your date?

19/07 new claim

the way they are working atm, I think you’ll hear very soon🤞🏽🤞🏽

uhh this is what they told me last week

not sure how it’s gone from 15 weeks to 20 weeks and now we’re close to 20 weeks we’re told 25 weeks 😭

im gonna call Friday and then every day after that 😂 they’ll me sick of me

This is me currently with my MR. Ringing up every day🤦🏽‍♀️😂 too many people with dates after mine have been awarded for them to give me the talk of 25 weeks🙄

I said this to the gentleman on the phone told them we have a group and are seeing people from 21/07 awarded he went silent?? Fingers crossed but not holding much hope @Kc1999x @Kimh95

I reckon this is the same man I spoke to Friday who told me he's never heard of any award going through before 20 weeks even though we know that to be a lie. I'm 17/7, going to ring this afternoon. Fingers crossed for everyone x

waited on the fudging phone to be told to ring back in 2hours because they are having system updates

I am fumingggg

Well if anything my breakdown on the phone to the school has helped as I've had an email that my son will be doing intervention sessions, so at least I know they'll be putting something on the report. Given me a tiny glimmer of hope again

Hopefully with this “system update” there able to award people quicker😂

hopefully when you call back you go straight through🤞 it is all so draining! 😖

i highly doubt it🙄 surely they would just shut the phone lines rather than have people sat waiting for god knows how long. Can’t cope anymore, gonna rip my hair out

Just tried ringing universal credit aswell and they have told me to call back in two hours because the system is down. Must be the whole dwp

Just a heads up to everyone that’s thinking of calling

@MrsW12 can you remember what questions were on the form they sent to the school? Seems like I'm finally getting somewhere with the senco and the old sen is stepping up to take over again and says she will happily fill the forms out, and if it's just the "someone who knows your child" section like from the application she can download it and I can collect on Wednesday. If they can't find the form I will get her to do that, but I'm guessing the report has actual questions?
