Received letter from ESA - still no decision!?

Hi everyone
I've received a letter from ESA (I done the medical assessment about two months ago)
Basically in this letter they are saying that based on the medical and my gp forms, I may not be eligible to receive this benefit. If I want to send more info I have 17days to do so.

Has anyone else had this? Do I send something back or do I just wait? Are they just sending these scary letters out to everyone because they need more time?

:o

    This letter is not a delaying letter/ sent to everyone. They are saying that on the information they have at present, you are likely to lose your entitlement. Do you have any other evidence to send them - consultant reports maybe?

    Yes I've given them absolutely everything, including consultants reports from hospital , my scan results....everything..
  • Then give them a call and ask what other information they are looking for.
