Just got off the phone. Not with DM but told me they are working on end of January dates atm

Is that coc.or n/c

I am, I’m on hold atm, like I know they’re overworked and sick of people ringing but not letting us know anything, telling everyone different things and seeing people behind us getting their decisions is just taking the pss 😒

Thank you for the lovely, supportive messages.

I have no clue how end of Feb MR’s are getting completed when there seems to be many people from Jan that are still waiting to hear back. Hopefully it won’t be much longer for you guys🫶🫂

COC 24/2

Awww congratulations

i Called this morning & the guy said it’s in date order so your claim proves it’s not
well done on getting what was deserved
shame we have to fight for it

Just marking my place. I have an MR in - scan date 13th Feb. I called today as it’s almost 25 weeks and they said still not with DM. Just wanna know now !!

It’s basically in ‘rough ‘ date order. I know for renewals it is usually done a week or so before even if you send the renewal in early. They had one of my children’s renewal for months and it was only done 1-2 weeks before renewal. I’m about to do another renewal but I’m not gonna rush it this time as it seems they rarely do them until just before

My MR is the 29th Jan, the wait is so frustrating!

Well fingers crossed they start getting these sorted
such a long wait
my original date was end of June 2024!!!
never know if they fobbing u off too so feels pointless calling now 😭

Omg u been waiting over a year my original SD was 12/8/24

Yeahhh so long now
just hope the wait is worth it now for my daughter.
we shall see.
I’m sure you will hear sooner than me if they have escalated yours.
I asked today and they said it’s not possible to escalate I just have to wait 😒

🤞🏼 we both hear something back this coming week x

Following COC SD 22/03

Mines not coc but new claims 21/3 taking ages now

I think my son won't get it considering there looking at april mayb may not had no text letter or nothing I phoned 25/7 apparently still waiting s/d 21/3 anyone else is that month or feb waiting

What's your s/d again hun hopefully next week we should hear

Any COCs been awarded from February? 😊

My original SD was the 4/12/2024
My MR is 14/05/2025 as they rejected my daughter due to her being able to walk to a taxi for school 😳🤔. So I gathered all my evidence with all her other needs x

NC SD 24-04
Awarded 28-07 HRC & LRM
Not sure why or how we have already been awarded, was expecting late october

Exactly the same for us! Scan date was 09/04 and awarded a couple of weeks back!

New Claim - they forms received back 12/07. Not sure of scan date

Originally applied 22/01, didn’t receive a letter/text to state they’d received forms but they sent my sons change of name deed back to me with an acknowledgment slip so thought nothing of it. Called on 2nd May to see if there were any update and was informed they’d actually lost my forms🥲was sent more forms to restart and was informed to add a letter explaining DLA office had lost the original forms so my claim needs to be backdated to January if awarded. Will this actually be done or am I being fobbed off? This is an awful wait when Ive sent the forms back once already! X

Anyone receive a text today? Apparently DMs were working the weekend to catch up on backlog…!

Are they working on just like ncs or everything do you know?😊

I was told will be working on MRs I’m not sure about NCs or COCs
