Post by: ozzycat on 04 November 2016, 17:09:00
dose anybody have any knowlage of pip as ive had a letter this morning saying that my dla is finishing and that ive got to aply for pip ive rung them like it says gave them my name and address and permision to talk to my dr they said i might have to fill in a form and maybe will have to have a interveiw i spoke to my quack told him to expect a call or letter about me he said i shouldent worry about it as i may not have to fill out a form as im not swinging bthe lead and after hes finished with them i wont need to fill in a form
one thing that made me laughwas they asked for the name of my consultant i sad which one he said the one you see at the hospital i said i know but ive got 10 he went very quiet then said er ok put them on the form if we send you one ad put the phone down
i would be grateful is somebody could give me some info on it

As far as I know Ozzy it's basically the same thing under a different name, the only difference is if you have services paid for via council / government etc then that money now comes to you for you to decide how it's spent.

You need to speak to someone at citizens advice, Ozzy. You must be told what you are entitled to, not what DWP want to give you.
