Hi
just to let everyone know the final outcome of mums case, after 6 week of going back and forth from DLA to DWP, the funds have now been released yestederday and should clear in the bank on friday, the amounr of back pay is & £9800.25.
This was not easy, in the end mum had to speak to a manager and this was resloved within 24 hours.
After recieving mum files,the manager said the decision maker who was looking at mums claim has decided that although mum was awarded mobility in 2003, she felt that she should at the same time, should had been awarded the low care rate too, this was based on the information they recieved from mums application form, dated the 9th august 2013.
mum told them, had she not put in a claim for help with care, she would have never known that she was entitled to this money, i think thats bad, how many others out there in mum situation???
oh well, its over now, money on its way to help her.
thanks for reading
