"I am afraid that both the DWP and ATOS will follow the process for a new claim in its entirety, your previous claim will not be taken into account."
Pauline had her previous claim refused for not attending an assessment, she is appealing the Decision but as ESA is not payable when there has been a technical failure, she has made a new claim for ESA, this is also not payable until she attends an assessment. If she wins the appeal on the original claim then the old claim will be re-activated and the new one closed in favour of it.
