Pip decision

Posted , 13 users are following.

I've had my face to face consultation over 3 weeks ago and firstly I received a text message to say they had all the info needed to decide my pip claim and will receive a decision letter once it has been made, then recieve another letter 2 weeks later saying they have all the info and reports needed about my condition and they are sorry it's taken longer than expected to give a decision on my claim but they will contact me as soon as a decision on my claim but they will contact me as soon as a decision is made. Is this a good or bad sign and has anyone else received this type of letter and what was the outcome

Cheers

      Hi Kett

      Those words are exactly the same as the one I got , do you know anyone else who has received one , I've already asked on here , people are saying everyone gets one so don't build my hopes up I'm glad you have one and it just goes to prove that not everyone gets one in the case of your misses, but wait and see is all we can do.

      Hello David and Kett,

      butting in on your conversation, I had the same letter and rang them on a Friday to see if a decision had been made.  The chap who answered the phone told me that a decision had been made, but it wasnt showing on the computer so he couldnt tell me what it was and suggested I ring on the Monday, which I did, but it was still not showing on the computer, but when I rang the next day, Tuesday they were able to tell me the decision. 

      Good luck both, I hope you hear soon.

      Hi David and Kett,

      I was on DLA for almost 20 years MRC and HRM.  Like everyone else I was really worried about changing to PIP and really thought that it would be taken away from me, but in actual fact I was awarded enhanced rate on both care and mobility.
