where to send sick notes for ESA?

Hi everyone. My husband's ESA has been stopped all of a sudden. No warning. We rang today and they claim they never received the new sick note. I have proof of postage. Thank God! After a long debate they have now told me that the sick note needs to go to Glasgow office and not local office - is this correct? Does anyone know an email address for the ESA people? I'm planning to call later so if I found out I will post it. Do you think we will get the allowance back paid - i am planning to resubmit the copy of the sick note today.

Also, this will make you all laugh. He had an ATOS assessment last week but it was cancelled because the doctor called in sick.... isn't that one for the books? :rotfl:

    It needs to go to the benefit centre dealing with your claim.
    The address will be on any award letters or other correspondence about his ESA.
