    The DWP is terrible. i still have panic attacks. Every time they send me a letter, they put me through hell once, and i still can't get past it. My last assessment went ok, but i was lucky to have a nice guy for a change

      I think is the general fear people have of the DWP the Brown envelope dropping through the door, its like they want to control your life and ruin it just like that, you must of had a good one which is amazing to hear! they are very far and few between.

      Just want to say ..love your vids with advice and such.... I had a phone assessment yesterday , and I have to say it went great... it was a real surprise 😮 .. she was a nurse and was kind and emphatic, any way long story short...I recorded it... she knew , and at the end she actually said she would recommend help for me in her report and would be very very lucky surprised if I was to receive nothing.. ( my recording says it )... so I must have had a good one....assessment was at 11-45 ...got a txt from dwp saying they have received report and may take up to 8 weeks for however much ..standard or enhanced ... but really really surprised at outcome.... so just gotta wait n see now 👍

      @@davewilson4477 Hi dave! thats good news, just please throw caution to the wind however as many assessors do pretend to be polite and nice in the need to trick you up, its happened to myself twice!! if it wasnt for the fact i recorded everything and then cross referenced her report they would have got away with it, not saying shes done this but a good 85% do and id hate that to have happened to you, please let us know on this post though when you find out!

      he's changed his tune it seems now, he wants to get all of the disabled back to work etc or work from home, reality is there isnt work or employers who are willing to adjust and ammend to the level required for some disabilities.
      instead of trying to remove benefits to save 1 billion, look at those billionaires who dont pay tax and go for them instead. they dont need the money trust me lol

    A male assesor asked me how ofen i chnaged my knickers ! I was mortified . He lied several time about my assement said i refused to do the physical assessment when i didnt he said to me its a waste of time so didnt do it . I so wished i had recorded it . This was for lcwra . I didnt get it and appealed and got lcw . Im now awaiting another assessment, and it's already affecting me having to go through this yet again 😢

    • @DynamicDuoUK
      @DynamicDuoUK  2 месяца назад +5

      Thats disgusting!! please record the next one regardless to what they say to protect yourself! a man should not be asking another woman how often they change their knickers?! the assesment should have been done by a female for starters if this is the case, thats so so wrong.

      That is indeed a disgusting & deplorable question to ask a woman during a PIP claim, not to mention the fact that it came from a male accessor! He should be ashamed of himself and should be given a written warning by his manager, no doubt he won’t, cos it’s the DWP we’re talking about isn’t it, hope your ok Wendy, take care & best of luck with your claim for PIP🙏🙂

    First thing to do is bring all the assessments in house away from the multiple companies leeching on the social funds.
    Next would be to extend the time between assessments to ten years.
    Next would be not to stop claimants awards until it is proven that the claimant is no longer eligible.
    Keep up with the good work thank you.

      I agree 100%. And they should be made to sign reports and any and all forms or correspondence with their name. Not just an agent. As they do now.they know if they lie and sign it they can be sued as an individual. Which is much easier to do than suing a corporation.

    Just because a person hasn't been sectioned or has not been sectioned for a few years it shouldn't be assumed that they are well enough to work and function well on a day to day basis. Some may have needed the extra medical attention when they are in crisis and not get the help they need. So called "Crisis teams" leave a lot to be desired and try to keep people out of hospital as long as possible due to bed shortages and a shortage of staff.

      Hiya, just get all the current medical evidence you have from your GP or whoever assists you with this and put this together as your evidence and explain to them how you feel now not before and if its worse its worse, genuine people like yourself should be treated with respect and care especially if you have had this previously and nothing has changed, try not to worry or panic i know its easy said than done beleive me, but you got this!

    See how they like it jokes aside. I'm literally working at the moment just not enough hours getting treated worse than being unemployed. The system is broken. And the WC saying this works part time she told me also probably getting top ups on UC. Crazy or what crazy people working in the DWP.

    They need to support people more,on things give them help,support more advice let people know what benefits they are entitled too instead of not helping them. All benefit a should be fairer. Pip needs to be done differently as it isn't a fair benefit to start with. The points system is a stupid idea. Stop treating normal people as criminals. Keep the nice staff get rid of the ones who treat people unfairly maybe employ people who have been through certain situations as people are or have been on benefits. As none have a clue about health problems etc. Need a decent fairer benefit system instead of a courpt one.
