DLA to PIP

Posted , 7 users are following.

I am on DLA high rate mobility & middle rate care.  I have had the assessment a week ago for PIP.  Today my DLA was due to be paid into the bank but it was not. When a phone call was made to the DWP they said that there was no reason why I should not of been paid today & the payment would be put into my bank in 5 working days. They also said that they had received the report about PIP from the assessment which was made at home by a member of ATOS & a decision has not been made as to whether I will be successful in my claim for PIP.  I do not think it is coincidence that my DLA payment has not been paid today. I believe that they have decided that I do not qualify for the DLA to be transferred over to PIP.  If this is the case, how they can possibly say that I do not qualify for PIP seeing as the disabilites I have are worse now than they have ever been & will only ever get worse, never better.  If they have decided I do not qualify for PIP what can I do to ask them to look at my case again?  This is totally mentally cruel for me to have to go through this.  This so called change over has been going on since the beginning od December.  I am at my wits end.
