Support Group was created by 007zac
Hi following the medical assessment I have recieved a letter confirming that I have been placed in the support group, however no time-scale has been given. I am relieved that I don't need to send sick notes in anymore.

Hi 007,
That is great news just in time for Xmas !!!!
The ESA Support Group (SG) Decision Notice letter that you speak of does not include the recommended period before reassessment (The Prognosis) nor does it include the reasons why you were placed into The SG.
Further information on obtaining this information can be found on a previous post of mine : Here.
Cheers, and thanks for letting us know !!

Hi,
This is the first time I've posted here, so excuse me if I'm in the wrong place.
I am in ESA Support Group and I was called up for a medical. I first of all said that I wouldn't be able to manage the stairs in the venue, so they then changed the venue to somewhere else where it would be level ground. So I then requested for the medical to be recorded so they then cancelled the medical saying they didn't have the equipment to do that.
Now I am concerned as I've not heard anything from them at all, and this is now 3 months ago, do I just sit quietly and wait for them to contact me or should I contact them ?
I'm just worried now that I may have a mark against me for being difficult, but I only did what I had read on here about having it recorded so they can't twist what I have said etc.
What should I do ?

Welcome to the forum
In case you are not aware, your real name appears to be showing in the forum, if you want to change this then follow the instructions in the following FAQ
My full name is showing, how can I stop it?
All I can advise is for you to contact ATOS for an update, they have a limited number of recording machines and it may be that they are struggling to get hold of one for your assessment, but the only way you will know for certain is for you to get in touch with them.
Contact ATOS
