Pip Tribunal success backdated ESA???

miserableindebt

Hi everyone,hope I am in the right place. When my husbands Pip renewal was declined in October, it affected his ESA payment as well.

We have now been to tribunal for PIP and won and had his PIP money reinstated and backdated to October, but we still haven't heard anything from ESA.

I know they tell each other information, because when PIP stopped, ESA changed the week after.

Just wondering should we be getting in touch (hard to get through, have tried) or will it just come in time.

I don't understand this because PIP and ESA are completely different benefits. Did he have an ESA assessment?

Presumably it was the disability premiums you lost?

Just call ESA and advise PIP now back in payment and they should sort it.
