What happens in DWP phone call re: ATOS/IB/ESA

Retrovertigo

Ok thanks. Have filled in several forms in the past so bit of a mystery why they don't have my number then as I wouldn't ever have left it blank I don't think. But it does state they don't have one for me.

I'd have no chance if the DWP phoned me. I wouldn't be able to hear them, and that's even if I could hear the phone ring in the first place.

My husband just explained to them that I was deaf, they told him that in cases like mine they send the forms out without the call and that he would put a note on my file that I couldnt use the 'phone.

Simple.

I've received the standard' we're going to call you' letter, but what I don't understand is why. I am on indefinite DLA & there have been no change in my circumstances apart from my wife qualifying for her pension in Sept, which she is deferring. I thought it was going to be 2015 before we were being called?

Any thoughts?

Are you sure it's about DLA? More likely to be about IB to ESA which is what the thread is about.
