We just got a renewal approved, for 3 years this time. No problem whatsoever. I did enclose a print out of my DH medication that I asked the helpful GP receptionist to print out for me. Not sure if they contacted anyone, but it only took around 4 weeks to get renewal through. It is for mental health related issue. We did ask a knowledgable benefit advisor to look over our claim both times (original and renewal).
I just wanted to give some hope to anyone claiming/renewing - it is not always bad and slow.
Good luck to everyone still waiting or fighting the decision!
