You are an angel, Gordon! Thank you so much xxx

Please forgive me for asking this again ... but I just want to make sure that the JC+ agent gave me the correct information: Will I be put back to the suport group straight away without a medical?

Thank you for being so patient with me, Gordon!

Providing they accept that the 12 week linking rule applies, I've no reason to believe that this would not be the case, then you should be put back into the SG without an assessment being required, however, it is not unusual for the DWP to initiate a reassessment after a claimants ESA is put back into payment.

I am an idiot!!! Arggghhhh~~~~~ I am shaking with disbelieve!! ...
I just called JC+ just to double check the date my ESA was closed. I was told it's 27/01/16. How could it be?! The letter I got (the only one ever since my move) on 21/03/16 says:

A CHANGE IN THE EMPLOYMENT AND SUPPORT ALLOWANCE RATE PAYABLE
" We have looked at your claim again following a recent change.
We have worked out how much your Employment and Support Allowance is. It is £0.00 per week and it's due from 17 March 2013."
......
We cannot pay you an allowance from 26 January 2016. This is because:
you have not given us the information we asked for.
....."

If my ESA was closed on 27/01/16, why were they telling me how much my ESA was due from 17/03/2013. .... 2013?!! why 2013?

Moreover, after so many letters and calls, no one actually told me my ESA was NOT closed

Sorry, my last message was accidentally sent while I was still writing it.

I was half way of saying: After so many letters and calls to JC+, no one actually told me that my ESA was NOT closed on 21/03/16 (on my letter of MR request and letter of complaint, I consistently stated that my ESA was closed on 21/03/16)

Since I started my MR request, and made a complaint about their maladministration, it has been over 2 months but I have not got any written response what so ever. On 31/03/16I asked a written explation about the closure of my ESA , I have got noting back about it either.

I am shaking like a leaf .... I really don't know what to deal with this
