Mandatory reconsideration.

Ok Thankyou so much for your help, I just want to get this straight in my head. So I started a claim for esa in February 2015 and had an assessment in February 2016. I received a letter saying I got 0 points in April2016. I then sent a letter for mandatory reconsideration and got a reply end of may saying that the decision had been changed and I was put in to wrag. I was paid til April and backdated money for the extra part. At the end of July I sent another letter saying I still didn't agree with the result And asked to be put in support group. I got a phone call 2 weeks ago from a decision maker saying she had enough info to transfer me to support group . I waited for payment but nothing came so I phoned dwp who say I'm not getting money as my contributions ran out in April ? So are you saying I should be getting paid even if the decision maker says she is transferring me to support group only from August. ? Thanks again

I've just phoned DWP again and again was told I'm not entitled to any payments as my contributions are exhausted, so I quoted what you said and that I'd like to speak to a manager! The guy then said to give him a moment to discuss with a colleague and when he came back he said it would seem I am indeed entitled to esa in support group regardless of contributions and that he will send an email so somebody will call me!! I did ask what would happen if I wasn't persistent would I just lose what I'm entitled to? He stuttered and didn't have an answer. I cannot Thankyou enough for the help you have given me throughout this process and I will let you know what happens next! Thankyou again

Hi, after another 4/5 phone calls and being told time and again that I will not be getting any payments, today finally after 3 more calls I have just been told my claim history is all in the right order and so I will be receiving payments and also backdated from 28th July. I really can't thank you for your advice and information as without it I would have believed them. Thankyou again.
