I pray its your week, you've already waited long enough and then waiting again for a MR I have a feeling mine will end up being and MR too. It's Just ridiculous. They told me last week a max 2 weeks left to wait amd to ring back a week today but I'm going to call them on Wed. I would call tomorrow but with the bank holiday tomorrow's waiting time will be ridiculous and if I'm fobbed off again it will just ruin my day.

Do u still get paid ur original award whilst a MR is being processed

No you don't. They rejected dds award at renewal even though her condition has worsened since the initial award. We've now been waiting 28 weeks for a MR. I assume we will get back pay if irs reinstated at MR but it's been tough

megan345 · 27/05/2025 08:52

just seen someone on facebook who’s coc was received 03/01/25 and already has a decision!😫 @ByChirpy

Tiredndconfused · 27/05/2025 09:14

Just got off the phone and have been told they are taking 28 weeks!! COC. He originally said they are taking a little over 25 weeks, I said how long over and he said 2 or 3 weeks!
Really cannot believe how long people are having to wait but also the lack of transparency as I've been told so many different things. Xxx

Senmummy1234 · 27/05/2025 09:17
