Another vote for writing to your MP, Lucky. The way you've been treated is simply not good enough.0

Sadly that does not surprise me.
I would strongly advocate involving your MP.

And put it on Facebook, that seems to be a growing medium for complaints. If they've got a FB page, put it on there. If your MP has a FB page, put it on there too.
So mad on your behalf. They've no idea how every aspect of your lives are a hundred times more difficult.What would you get if all you got was what you were thankful for?0 -

I am sitting here practically in tears on your behalf.
Sometimes I see things on FB, about benefit this that and the other- you know how cancer sufferers can't get help or be allowed to change their appointments but have always taken it with a pinch of salt, unreliable unknown site etc.
However, to come here and read about you, my friend who I have watched go through hell on so many levels, face her difficulties with such resilience and love for her family and deal with everything with incredible dignity. To have you treated like this is beyond disgusting.
Brain injury.
!!!!ing hospital.
multiple seizures
unpredictable moods.
constantly on alert for another seizure.
kids.
Job.

OF course you have time to bloody commit benefit fraud.
How dare they. After everything you have been through.
how !!!!ing DARE they.
Complain to EVERYONE.
Especially that bit about trying to catch you out.
so !!!!ing angry.Nevertheless she persisted.0 -
I always think of you and your hubby whenever I see updates about Michael Schmacher.
Let rip with both barrels!0 -
Just sneaking in to say; Don't ponder it, do it. Write off a letter to your MP detailing the latest screw up, and also the previous screw up.
That's not even funny. Either someone screwed up by saying it was a training day, when it wasn't, or it was purely maliciously set up for a fail by you and your hubby. (again) Please watch the Bank account/post for any sign of a sanction, just in case.
Is he in work, or support group?
I hate ESA and all that it's done, brought, doing, harming and it sure as hell isn't solving the "benefit scrounger" issue (!) either... I'm sure you can guess what I'm going through currently too:mad:

Morning PLMBL,
Unbelievable reading on your diary lately. Shocking how they can treat people who are poorly in such a bad way. I would be annoyed enough after making such a terrible journey in for it to be a wasted journey, let alone your hubby who is ill and shouldn't have this amount of stress to deal with.
In the future with any dealing you have with this company, make sure you take everyone names down that you speak to, so you have a bit of proof. They sound completely disorganised or fraudulent.
So angry and upset on your behalf.:mad:
Do please make sure you write to your MP while you are still angry, the treatment you have received is beyond disgusting.
Hope you and hubby are feeling abit brighter today, don't let it get you down. FIGHT xxxxx0 -
Hope you've got over the trauma of yesterday and the anger didn't cause any problems for OH
I agree with the sentence 'how bl00dy dare they'
Some people are just incompetent beyond words
