backdated payments

i have been on reduced rate since 2013. i won my appeal eventually in nov 2015. i was only backdated till july 2015! after speaking to the dwp they told me i was disallowed in feb 2015. ive had doctors notes the whole period . from 2013. have they created a loophole?

Was your claim closed/disallowed?

it was disallowed gordon

i went to another tribunal and lost. so was disallowed . i instantly appealed against the decision.

I'm sorry but you will have to provide a more detailed time line.

You say that you received an award at a Tribunal, what was the date of the Decision that you appealed?

You suggest that you originally claimed in 2013 was this a continuous claim until the date of the above.

Do you know what the DWP are referring to?

hi gordon. its been an ongoing claim since sept 13. i got in touch recently to ask about my backdated benefits. they said i went to an appeal feb 15 and was disallowed. i instantly appealed again. got a mr off the job centre and continued again until nov 15 when i went to the tribunal and i was granted the decision. ive been constantly having to reclaim housing benefit, cos my claim closes re-opens. its been how one person has called it. the revolving door. im now considering going to an MP.
