I still get my DLA and Pension Credit.
The only thing I can suggest is that you contact yur local Citizens Advice Bureau. They really helped me get my DLA.

However if you have got DLA before you are 65 (like me) that just continues.
Am I wrong here ?

PIP came in on 8th April 2013, that is the date they are asking how old you were on that date.
I was 62 on that date (16 - 64) so I will be reassessed and invited to apply for PIP.
However they have not assessed me yet, I am still on DLA. I will be 65 on 10th November this year.So if they have not assessedme by then I will be 65. My understanding is that because I will be 65 I then cannot apply for PIP anyway as I have to be (16-64)
How can they still be assessing people l now?
Suppose they assess someone now and decide they are not eligible.They have still had their money for the past 2 years as DLA.
Let's not pretend any of this is going to make any sense.
I have recently decided to put my DLA money into a new adjustamatic bed paying over the next 5 years.
So if they take it off me I'll be camping out!!
