Hi Phrank,

I'm just not witty enough to think of a humourous pun but I do like sending vibes!

Sending you a "they'd better award you the correct length of award or else!" vibe.

Not entirely sure what the "or else" would be.....but I'm hoping you get the general idea. You've had to really throw everything at this and, like all of us on this forum, should absolutely get what you are entitled to.

Pulling for you Phrank,

Susie

Hi Susie,

Thanks so much for the 'vibe' once more!

You've got me a bit emotional with your latest post. Nice - and thanks.

I suppose the 'or else' would mean in my view '.....or else I will keep on bombarding you until you take notice and finally see sense'.

I feel a decision is not far away, but I am apprehensive - and yet hopeful.

I will let you know as soon as I know something.

Kindest regards,

Phrank.

Hi all,

I keep reading the same 'news' snippet on various sites like google and it refers to a change in law for all benefit claimants.

The bit that interests me is something about PIP claimants and assessments. It says something on the lines of reducing PIP assessments and not reassessing people who's conditions are not going to improve. It says that this includes most PIP claimants over state pension age.

Have I been dreaming, gone stark raving, or have I misinterpreted it completely?

Any feedback would be appreciated thanks.

Regards,

Phrank.

Hi phrank

No you have not dreamt it or gone stark raving mad so you cannot claim any additional points ;-)

The news has been out for quite a while, it's called a light touch review and on going. www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/news/3970-exis...ch-review-from-today

Hi Gary,

Thanks for your reply. Yes I am aware of the statement in the link you sent with your post.

What I'm referring to is something new I have read over the past few days, something to do with a 'Green Paper' which affects all benefits including PIP.

I don't know if anyone else has read the same thing but it keeps 'bumping into me' so to speak on the internet.

Any ideas, anyone?

Kind regards,

Phrank.
