    Hi.  I was in a similar circumstance.  I moved from Carer's Allowance to new style ESA and when I claimed they declined it from checking the relevant tax years.  I rang and explained I was in receipt of Carer's Allowance previously and the claim was then awarded.  I'm not sure if someone has to override something to award the benefit in these circumstances.  Good luck.
    Thank you.. That's really good to know. I'm glad you got it x
