Now all of a sudden my payments have stopped without warning me. If my PIP was awarded to 16th Dec 2016 why has it stopped. Is this right. I rang the PIP helpline and they told me that because I sent in a new claim, even though it was a re-claim, they can stop my money until the decision makers have decided what to do. Surely this isnt right. Please advise
This is wrong although a new Decision can change or end your current award early, but until a new Decision is made your current award should remain in payment. I'm afraid you need to contact the DWP again and if necessary escalate the problem to a manager, this usually requires a call back.

Did you contact the DWP again, as advised?
You did not mention a DS1500 in your first post but also say that you are in remission, was the DS1500 recently issued?
