I'm Not Paranoid They Are Out To Get Me!

Hi Rachel,

I wouldn't worry too much about the post office and liability - I'm sure they've got themselves well covered to avoid responsibility.

The important issue is: did you, in all the circumstances, take reasonable steps to do as directed and can you prove that you did so?

If you complete your form and send it by a method that is guaranteed to be received by the addressee within the deadline, and you can prove it, then failure by any of the other parties involved in the transaction should not disadvantage you.

As I said in the other thread on recorded delivery, it would be a great shame if people failed to provide all the evidence they could at the ESA50 stage simply because they rushed to return the form for fear of failure by the post office or Atos/WP.

Hi Dave,

Well spotted that it's a Monday - I agree with your suggested date.

Can anyone help me to advise me as to what form I could get from my Doctor to take to the Medical to improve my chances.

There is no form you can request, but you can ask you GP to comment on your condition.

They might be willing to write a letter or if you are very lucky, a report, in either case, they may charge you for doing so.

Hi all,

on Friday I had to drive to Bridgnorth (3 hrs each way) to take my children to their fathers funeral. As you can imagine, it was a very emotional day.

We got home just after 10pm and guess what was waiting for me? My new ESA50!

Anyway, my question is, if it's due in on 19th Sept and I pay for next day delivery, what date, at the latest, can I risk sending it?

Many thanks,
Rachel
