Everyone is free to post their opinions, but I objected to the witch hunt and the bully boy tactics that are being used within this thread and the other threads that are up and running.Transformer wrote: »You are too atos sensitive not allowing others the right to post their opinions which are probably based on same informed opinions as yours wether that be positive experience or not.I made a mistake once, believeing people on the internet were my virtual friends.

As evidenced by the statistics, this is indeed a fact that is often discounted.seven-day-weekend wrote: »I don't see why it should. Have I also to discount the vast majority who have medicals with absolutely no problem at all?
The same statistics also indicate that some do indeed have problems but the situation is improving with the DWP decision upheld rate steadily increasing month on month.seven-day-weekend wrote: »I'm sorry some people have problems and if the medical has been carried out incorrectly, then I hope the situation is remedied without too much hassle. But it doesn't mean that every ATOS decision is flawed or that all the assessors are a bunch of crooks!0 -

Its exhausting.
If you truely have experience of mental issues you would know not to over step the line or be wary of how a post received.
A person such as me does her best to stay on topic and keep polite, I am ill after all and feel despite that I have conducted myself tonight well no rudeness to anyone. I am off to sleep now hoping atos can reply.
You were both very disparaging of the poster who had positive experience of ATOS ( to the extent that she hasn't returned).
And, by the way, I have a long history of depression including taking medical retirement from a professional career.0 -

you post where i have rebutted or disparaged, I have tried to many times post positive adn say good to hear a positive post, what am I to do kiss your feet?:eek:
I have not insulted anyone hence no need to not return due to them posting positive post, I feel you are incapable of seeing both sides and feel sorry for you.
I think that to comment "Honest enough, you mean lucky enough !!!!!!!!" as a response to a poster's positive experience fits most people definition of disparaging.0
