Oh well at least that's done now! Had the home assessment for PIP this morning. man was extra lovely and very kind.

Appointment only lasted 20 mins and he didn't look at all the 'evidence' I had, said he didn't need to take it away. What do you make of that?

Did you send the same evidence with your form?

No. I told him, at the time I sent the form away, I forgot to send all the evidence but here it is now.. and he said its fine he doesn't need it?

So I rang up PIP toady to see what was happening re MR. This is because over the weekend i received a letter from the complaints department saying it went straight to the dm due to length of time i have been waiting. So she says we got a supplementory report from ATOS yesterday in light of the evidence i sent them. Why didnt they just ask for a supplementory report straight waya. Does anybody know what this means with regards to my MR?

I would have thought you would have an answer by now.

I'm having serious doubts about my own assessment now. Looking back I know he tricked me on 2 questions.. he only stayed less than 20mins after being 2 hours late and didnt even look or take all my evidence.

another 6 weeks for a decision seems a lot! I would just keep calling them every week.


I was going to give them a call next week to check on my decision, don't think I'll bother now lol

They can do wot they want I contacted my mp last night maybe he can do something to hurry them iup I've got a letter saying they have all the information they need sorry for the long wait from the decision maker dated 16 then they said on phone they didn't get all information until the 23rd they are full of crap :mad:
