Hi you wonderful pair, I just want to tell you . . . I was cut off today, after 2 minutes of the beginning of my assessment for ESA! The 'nurse' cut off the call after I told her I was going to record the assessment. She said 'you aren't allowed to record without first letting us know'. I said, 'I know my rights, and have followed procedure, and I am allowed to record '. She cut me off and ended the assessment. I had previously rang CHDA to tell them I was going to record and they told me I couldn't. They gave me the number of the assessment centre and told me to tell them. I rang the assessment centre, they told me I couldn't record. I said 'I'm allowed to buy law if I let you know in advance. She cut me off! I followed it up by ringing and ensuring that everything said was documented, she cut me off! . . . . This is the transparency and honesty of the institutions that are supposed to support us!
Hello! That's absolutely disgusting !! I've pinned this comment now to replace the previous one as this is something that is absolutely shocking!! You've followed the procedure and you're allowed to record and protect yourself by doing so, you've given plenty of time as well. Raise a complaint please online with the DWP about the process and explain you shouldn't be losing any benefit by a nurse not liking the fact you are recording. She didn't like it simply because she wanted to stuff you over basically.
This is the truth people take note !!
Will do a live show about this next week if okay ?!
Oh, they have knocked the anxiety out of me and I'm spurred on! There's not a cat in hell's chance they will win against me now! You two gave me the courage to do this! xxx
I forgot to say, that I had to wait online for 45mins. They did let me know and asked if I would like to wait or rearrange. I said I'd wait, but during this time the camera was left on! There was a message across the screen saying that I was waiting, and this was covering some of my image. But I'm not sure whether this was the case from their side. For all I know, they could have been watching to see I moved etc. I made sure I didn't get up and only moved for comfort etc. After 47 mins, the secretary came back on and said there was another 15 mins wait. All in all the appointment was 1 hour and 6 mins late! The whole thing felt like a set-up! They also rang me the morning of the assessment apparently as a courtesy call to let me know the appointment was going ahead! That's b******s ! Antagonising is what it is! ❤
I would complain in writing severely, an absolute disgrace.
You should have told the 'nurse'' at the end of the interrogation that you had recorded it all. Obviously they record it their end for everyone.
My partner had her assessment at her home as due to her disability is not always able to leave the house.
During it, the assessor asked multiple questions about my partners ability to use her mobile phone. My partner very rarely uses the phone as due to an injury she can't hold it properly. Anyway she had her pip refused, and the assessor outright lied and claimed that during the assessment, my partners mobile phone rung, she answered it and spoke for several minutes!
My partner then informed them that I was in the kitchen with the door closed and was recording the assessment. She was immediately awarded pip and told that there had been some mistakes in the assessment! They're vermin.
You absolutely have the right to record. They however must inform you! I always record, I also never inform them.
Very good… I would go one step further and like state everything the PIP interviewers do is a trick question. The will phone early or late to put you off your guard. The softening up questions like your name address medication etc are to get the client to relax and even the very friendly easy going and ostensible helpful manner is to pull you in. It’s actually a technique developed by the SS division ( no pun intended) in Germany circa 1942.
I liken it to an abattoir worker coaxing in the animal they’re about put a bolt through the head of. These self appointed ‘help professionals’ are incredibly similar in attitude to the abattoir worker. Remember every question is a trick one with these killers. Always record the conversations.
Im so goad im autistic, stuff like that from someone i don't know to me is overly familiar and highly offensive, i will go for my judgement alone if needed, but the one i had before i went with someone, from this it sounds like a bad idea, the whole things punishment for a pittance how i see it, man i will completely loose my shit with it, crap😮
I'm glad RUclipsrs make videos like this. This will stop so many claimants being ripped off by those awful people at DWP.
Thank You Andrew
Thanks for doing what you’re doing you two ❤.
After my telephone pip assessment I had a couple of strange Mobil phone calls the DWP were the only new people I’d given my number to.
The first call was asking where I lived because the person was trying to deliver a Pizza that I’d supposedly ordered, I told PIP in my assessment I don’t like using the phone because I don’t like talking to people.
The second phone call a few days later said I’d hit their car with mine whilst parking in a supermarket car park, that was funny because I’ve not owned a car for thirty + years.
I think both of the calls were from PIP assessors trying to catch me out! Maybe I’m just paranoid but it seems strange that in all the years that I’ve owned a mobile phone I’ve never had bogus people phone me before. Keep doing what you’re doing we need people like you ❤
I think its them
Thank you love the feedback! And yes that sounds like DWP tricks they've used these techniques in the past to try trick people out, they claim it's random however and only if they believe those people are dishonest. Still shouldn't be happening.
Keep at it you bloody legends
I know there are fools out there that genuinely believe everyone should work or die, but I have worked in places where people have been forced into work despite mental conditions
IT DOES NO GOOD TO THE FIRM OR ANY STAFF, the firm loses money and reputation when workers have a public episode - that they were warned about before taking them on
the worker loses out when the bosses inevitably try and blame/punish them for the conditions they knew full well about
the other staff lose out when the bosses use any episodes as an excuse to bring in unfavorable changes for all such as altered or increased hours
Thank you for the kind words honestly means a lot to us! Thank you for sharing your views as well on it we greatly appreciate it.
Never give up on anything ! ❤️❤️❤️
I had an episode at work once, aspergers not the sad, have that too but i keep that well hidden, wasnt taking phonecalls after that one😂
the dishonesty goes back 30 years that i know of
Absolutely crazy !
i had a pip assessment just after my mum died i was her carer and the stress of watching her die, caused me to have a breakdown, i had the assessment over the phone and was turned down because the woman said i was just a little bit tearful and nothing else wrong with me, stupid cow, she had no experience in mental health issues
Love that bit when you said the DWP are peed off!😂👍
😂😂 honestly there fuming it's unreal watching them squirm like maggots they are 😂😂
@@DynamicDuoUK yes. Serves them right!
I had no problems claiming for esa and pip. The guy at the job centre and the pip assessor were absolutely brilliant and helpful.
I must be the lucky one 🤷♂️
The majority are and also medically trained, the guy talks a lot of stuff which isn't true
I start recordings from the moment I get within a few meters of the assessment centre and if we are made to wait then every few minutes I ask the person I'm with something to make sure my recording has switched off. I use a Dictaphone and have it set to stop recording after 15 minutes of silence, that's why I ask the person I'm with something every 5 minutes or so to keep the Dictaphone active.
I was assessed in my bed upstairs where I have been for 12 years and got 0 points. I wonder how big her bonus was and was it worth it
At an assessment I was attending with a person the assessor was doing everything to try and deny his claim, his sister took care of his finances and they tried to make out he took care of his own finances, in the end I said strike one! and the assessor said what do you mean so I said get three strikes and we're out of here and put in a complaint. She tried to say that we couldn't do that so I replied try it and after that she didn't try anything else and he was awarded full rates on both parts. He had another assessment two years ago and was denied PIP but had it recorded but the disc was blank but he had done a covert recording as well so he knew everything that was said by the assessor and his replies, he received zero points but appealed and at the tribunal last year he was awarded full on both parts for 10 years. His condition had got worse and he was in a wheelchair at the tribunal which he wasn't at the assessment.
Richard Thank you Bro.
Disabled people needs to no what the Corrupt DWP are doing to Disabled.
Good on you mate, thanks for standing up for people. It’s utterly disgusting the tactics they use they tried several with my mum and I ripped them to shreds after scoring 0 points on most things it was overturned at tribunal to full PIP then they cut it off because they sent her a letter she did not get about a change of address. Absolutely sickening. I will always fight them for me it’s a case of I will never back down from injustice and clearly you see it the same way as I do. It’s pittance too, for gods sake give our national average wage instead of a measly 2-8k a year, then have UC for top ups for people who need help with rent etc. it’s not that the country can’t afford it it’s that politicians DON’T CARE. Their family don’t have to suffer so they aren’t bothered if yours do. They’ll happily send all our money to other countries to fund w a r s though, as they make so much money themselves from it. Horrible horrible people. Normally it’s just the people at the top, but in this case it isn’t at all, there are lots of people complicit in making the lives of people who need help feel like the depths of hell, and causing suffering, deaths, hunger and so on. I detest the system and I will always always fight them until the very end.
Thank you mate i appreciate it, were just trying to fill the void with a bit of advice when we can is all, not many people like it however but it's the right thing to do.
Also I know how much work goes into researching all the legal and work related contractual stuff that this entails . So it just shows how ignorant people are who say that what your doing is lazy and to get a job. Been times that you can be finding something out and it takes you 12 13 hours of searching online .Phoning the relevant organisations etc, arranging meeting and interviews. And then the travelling to and from those interview/meetings with new leads to follow.
also when you send further medical evidence and its not tracked they deliberately say they havent received it
100% agree always send recorded delivery then if they state no evidence received you have proof it was signed for by their team.
Yes. This is so true..always, ALWAYS track your mail you send them. They will try this trick..they did it to me and I won't fall for it again.
I had a phone assessment 3 DAYS after my mother passed away suddenly. I made a request to change to another day, as I was in no state to deal with them - not only was this refused, they threatened to close the claim there and then if I didn't comply. Of course I failed, and according to the "professional" I was perfectly fit and well and showing no mental distress whatsoever....
Some questions I have been asked: did you go to a mainstream school- even though it was over 40 years ago.
When you left school what career or job did you do even though I have been long term disabled/ ill from work 15 years,
I was also asked to add up some sums like arithmetic plus given a list of words to remember and then asked what the words list was a few seconds later. It was testing my cognitive. They watch how you come in and if you show your passport to the reception which you have to do and then they say you can talk to strangers ok, also if you grip a walking stick they then say you have adequate grip on a walking stick so again mark you down. If you refuse a medical because of pain they don’t like that either. Oh and don’t take a bag, carry it yourself or bend forward to get anything out of your bag because they use that as your mobility even crossing your legs is used against you. They will do everything and anything to catch you out. Sorry to be negative but you have to be very mindful. I have been to so many assessments now I think I have seen most tricks and I’m now waiting for my next pip review. Anyway best wishes everyone xx
You need to do a video on how PIP will try and get you to do their legwork for them with regards to your medical records, knowing that it will be difficult for you to obtain what they need, and this gives them a loophole to turn you down.
When I had my telephone assessment, i was told that i had to get in touch with my medical team to request various documents and proofs of tests and consultations etc in order to prove my claim. When I called my GP, he said "Absolutely not, Bubble! They need to call and request what they need. That's why you tick that box on the form giving consent. We cant supply them with anything until we know what they need. Tell them to call us themselves. That's part of their job!"
Absolutely spot on! They are bone idle and lazy and use it as an excuse and expect you as the claimant to do their job for them knowing full well half the time it's difficult or to request a doctor's note is around £30 it is up here anyway !
The box clearly says do you allow us consent to your medical records via a GP etc.
They even ask you this over the phone 🤣🤣
They are just too lazy to do any work apart from tick boxes and make excuses to not pay people.
@@DynamicDuoUK I also think its about time they stopped messing people about. Disabled people arguably are some of the most vulnerable people in society and many of them have conditions that will either remain fixed or deteriorate. They should amend the Disabilities Act to reflect that. If a PIP claim is for something that will improve with time/surgery etc then a short term award can be made, yearly or whatever. For conditions that will be permanent there should be lifetime awards granted with the understanding that you can review your award by request if your needs increase. That'd save both sides a lot of time and unnecessary effort. Why is it the most vulnerable are the ones that have to continuously beg the most and jumpthrough the most hoops for any kind of support?
It makes me so angry
The docs charge £30 per letter anyway. All a money grab.
My daughter recently went through the limited capability for work questionnaire and telephone assessment. I am her appointee. However, I wasn't present for the telephone assessment. She failed. Also, the mandatory reconsideration upheld their decision.
Now, I am a nurse of 47 years and had been a union rep for over ten years, putting cases together for disciplinaries. We decided to take it to a tribunal. I put the case together, sent in the documents (bundle). I literally ripped the assessment to shreds word by word, sentence by sentence, same with questionnaire. That bundle was sent by tribunal to DWP, who looked at it again. To be honest they must have thought, shit, we're going to lose this case. DWP decided to go in my daughters favour and have re-instated her LCW. They owe her £1320.
PIP is next on our agenda
Just as an FYI for all.. I am a 60yr old man, I have claimed money for one week in my life, as I was between jobs to feed my kids and my dog. I went without food that week myself to ensure everyone else got fed, so I am not a scrounger, despite being told at 9yrs old that I would never be able to do a days work in my life due to Crohns disease.
I was so ill recently that I could do no more than shuffle along, taking two minutes to get across the 3yrd living room. When I had my pip asessment I was asked how far I could walk.
Being clueless I stated that I could probably walk 25 yards, they then scored me 0 because I could walk (despite the nearest bus stop being 500 yards away) The correct answer would have been "I cannot walk" as I could only shuffle, so beware ! They also asked if i drove, and followed up with "do you drive a manual or automatic car" to assess co-ordination etc.
I got Enhanced PIP without a face to face Assessment. All it took was a letter from the Psychiatrist and my clinic letters. Awarded 8 years. Ive been on PIP for 10 years. I am a Paranoid Schizophrenic though. Im still claiming Legacy ESA, with the Severe disability premium.
It does pay out if your severely disabled. You just need the evidence.
Thank you so much. I’m stressed as I have my pip review. I have a lot of mobility issues and things and find it soo hard to stay firm but you’ve convinced me. Really appreciate your time. Take care ❤
Thankyou so much brother. My pips interview is tomorrow and this prep really helped me focus on it to hopefully get through it in one piece.
How did it go?
So Glad I came Across Your Help xxx
so keep up the good work you two because this IS work with a heavy cost physically and psychologically.
Thank you! Will do!
you are doing a great job of informing the pubic of the pitfalls when needing DWP help, anyone who Trolls you or tries to sabotage your efforts to help others need to remember a very important point of your channel Trolls themselves may need your
help any time at any age in the future themselves or for loved one ❤❤
At a face to face assessment I was asked about medication and I advised the assessor that all the information was in the papers I had already submitted to which the assessor replied very condescendingly that she didn't possibly have time to look through all of that! Then at the end she asked me in a very friendly manner if I had anything else planned for the rest of the day to which I felt I had no alternative but to tell her the truth was I was going straight home and back to bed!
just thank you for doing whout you do a huge help to everyone that are disabled .
Your welcome 🤗🤗
Thank you so much for this.
Thank you so much for this
I salute you for providing people with your very much needed knowledge! You are helping so many people! Thank you ❤
You are so welcome thank you for being here ❤️
With most chronic illnesses, nothing is predictable and its virtually impossible to do anything consistently ....its all so stressful.
Another favourite is the laptop is recording you and they say i need to pop out for a minute and leave the laptop running and recordings you to see if you are moving about and listening to every word you say if you have someone with you and when you leave they continue watching you to see if you can move better than you say. And remember sometimes is the same as yes to them. You can or you can't never sometimes.
that's good advice re: the sometimes. Thanks.
Wise head on young shoulders.Keep up the good work with your vital information.👍
Much appreciated and thank you 😁
many years ago i was on adv pip, but i was downgraded because i took a motability car and their reason for down grading me was that i can now get around, since then i have been house bound and i'm afraid to challenge them for the higher pip rate again in fear of losing it all, i wish i'd found you channel long before now, thank you for the advice
I got screwed out of mobility help, I got asked how far I can walk so I said pain free about 20 meters which reduces to 10 to 20 feet as the pain rises then I have to stop. I told them to get to my partners home it takes me around 1 to 1 and a half hours with repeated stopping, this is a distance that takes a healthy person 20 minutes. I got refused mobility help and they gave 0 points stating that I am able to walk for an hour, they blatantly twisted the truth. This is with having hip arthritis, peripheral arterial disease with a blocked artery and asthma. Now I have to deal with them again because of a diagnosis of severe arthritis in my dominant hand. They also said that as I drive I have no problem using the pedals and controls.
Oh my gos! They get £80 per failure? That's insane...
I know !
Good man. God bless you mate. I know wht kind of people these are. They horrible and cruel. It's good 2 know there is people out there such as your self to give good advice. Thnx mate on behave of everyone here 👍
I know someone that used to undertake the assessments for DLA, and I suspect this practice is still used today for PIP. He told me that he would set his assessment to take place in an office on the 1st floor, this would require the applicant to either traverse stairs or take a lift, he would ask the security guard checking in the applicant to observe which method they used to reach the required floor, if they used the stairs he would reject their claim before they had even met.
Sounds like allot of hard work this. To go through all of thos it sounds like each person has the capacity to become a lawyer
Another trick question they employ is 'Do you like watching soaps on the television?' This sounds like a nice general question but it is an attempt to see if you can follow complex plotlines along various episodes, so programmes such as Eastenders/Coronation Street etc.
ive just received my partners PIP form, this is our 4th attempt. We were two points away last time. A charity is helping us fill it in this time and they have a high success rate of helping people get the PIP they are . entitled to. My partner has a back problem due to an accident at work and has not been able to walk more than a couple of steps without having to sit down for years. He’s never been upstairs for years and sleeps in a chair, washes and does everything downstairs. This has caused depression,anxiety. So keeping our fingers crossed we get it this time. Thanks for the information it was a great help
What’s the name of the charity, please?
Your advice is golden dude🙏
Your very welcome my friend, i can't please everyone but if ive helped just one person then my work is done!
Star spelt backwards is RATS!
It is a good point that is addressed on the ME advice sheet. That if you do not provide details, e.g. to the pets question. They will assume and make assumptions, which is where the "Yes, but..." comes in. Then you use the STAR to explain difficulties.
Too late for me. I failed my PIP and I don't care any more. I cant go through it yet again. I've had 3 appeals in the past and won them all, but it's draining and I give up. I don't have any support thanks to cuts in services.
An absolutely brilliant explanation of what is required.
Unfortunately this is what we have to do to explain disability.
I have CVS, extreme breathing difficulties and depression caused by my CVS. It took me 18 years to get disability benefits. DLA years ago and now it’s PIP.
Would love to work? hell yes! Am I able to? absolutely not!
I was shocked when I eventually was accepted but I got lower on mobility only. They failed to take everything into account and gave me 0 points for most of my issues.
I called them out then I got higher on both which was what they should have done in the first place.
It’s a flawed system, unfortunately there are so many people trying to claim this without reason that the real disabled people are having to wait an exuberant amount of time to receive an acceptance.
Thanks for all you do for us.
Having experienced both a PIP assessment (DWP) and War Pensions Mobility assessment (VUK) which are the same as they are both benefits and they are exclusive of each other, it astounded me how differently I was treated during the War Pensions Mobility assessment, completely respectful, I went into a different side of the assessment centre and even offered a drink, I was dumbfounded afterwards when comparing my experience. Needless to say I don't bother having the DWP one anymore and I'm not reassessed.
Thank You for this. It is lovely to watch 2 honest lovely people who just want to help genuine ill but vunerable people.
I am currently on Enhanced rates of both Components of PIP
Brain injury, Strokes, heart issues, hearing issues, vision issues, short Term Memory etc xxx
Hello ! Thank you for watching our channel we appreciate it and it means the world to us we can help in some way or the other xx
hope you get better, God bless.
My partner has the same conditions you are not alone
Great information 👍
Thank you ! X
Wow, I lost all my points on my recent review. Going to tribunal to fight back, was a video assessment, said I was dressed appropriately - I was in my nighty.
there idiot's yet if we turned up naked and all the junk in the trunk hanging out they would say we are not following their guidelines for assessment, id be like well due to my mental health this is me sorry i like being naked lmao, honestly there idiots.
@@DynamicDuoUK yeah also used my psychiatric assistance dog against me.
Everyone in Britain should go to court
great info thanks.
Glad it was helpful!
I have been an observer during an appeal, when at the Citizen Advice Bureau, in the days when it was still called Disability Living Allowance, On the panel of assessors, they would be one lady who was paralysed from the neck down, and as the case worker from the Bureau rightly said , anyone appealing would feel intimidated by that person being there , because they would think "what have I got to complain about compared to her " etc Even the claim forms for DLA back then were consuming to some people of a certain age , who are putting on claims forms that they could walk 100yards, but they didn't even know how far 100 yards were
I've got a seething hatred for DWP staff, and they know it well. They class me as vindictive.
Why do you think the assessors act dishonestly? Are they paid bonuses for number of refused claims, or their jobs are on the line if their refusal rate is too low?
Interesting re pets. Perhaps my answer has helped me in the past. No pets but would love one but I honestly couldn’t look after a dog how I should or would want to.
I seem to be living in some kind of a dream world. I've not had any issues or roadblocks. The people who have, well, they deserve not just an explanation, they need recompense, and sharpish.
Great information on this video mate 👍
Thanks 👍❤️
Great info..
Thanks for watching!
Hi hun loved the vlog great couple. Thanks for the imput 🎉
Glad you enjoyed thanks for tuning in :-) Richard
I know at least 2 that are medically trained and would be Capita ATOS benchmark star employees.... Their names are:The (not so) Right honourable Matthew Handoncock MP,. Dr Harold Shipman, Nurses Beverley Allitt and her protégé Lucy Letby. Dr Shipman's inspirations are Dr Joseph Mengele and Sir Iain Duncan Smith.
Just found your channel... Hell Fire where have you been all my computer life? Nicely put together and as I have just turned 70 I feel that you are easy to follow! Keep up the great work. Many regards. David ..
Welcome aboard!
Great tips , thanks man :)
Happy to help!
What a country we live in, when genuine people need to be coached on the ways of the scumbags(not you two guys please), to actually get assistance
Thanks for the comment :-)
The biggest issue is maximus an american company who have been given a contract and then an extended contract in the states they are sued in different states for millions.for false reports . They should never have been selected , there assessors are not very knowledgable how can physio therapists no your mental and medical records which they always ignore. The bigger problem is a conflict of interest .
Thanks
Thank you for the support 💕❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Shared to Facebook main page, as I had the same situation today, I was in Jobcentre today,
Thank you for sharing! good old job centres or as we call them "the place where karens hang out and dish out torture" haha
@DynamicDuoUK I emailed the Minister for DWP as I did not like what was said yesterday at my appointment, they are going to cut my benefit
My brother went through this, we had a very positive experience. Im sorry guys if you went through stressing incidents. They came to our flat stayed on few mins, she was lovely. I should add my brother had a life changing accident he’s really badly broken.
Unfortunately, doctors only medicate. Medicate the symptoms and don't treat the causes.
Exactly, Nutrition and detoxification is real medicine. See Dr Max Gerson, Dr Max Bircher-Benner.
Then doctors do tests that don't find anything and accuse people of making it up or bad diagnosis.
Most diseases are caused by toxins: jabs, pesticides, heavy metals, fungal toxin sensitivity, forever chemicals, plastics.... many others.
Good advice that I got knocked back with similar things you just mentioned .
sorry to hear that, which ones did they focus on with you if you dont mind me asking?
i need my pet dog to even leave the house, support dogs is a thing for disabled people
100% agree, charlie our eldest is emotional support from when i had a major breakdown two years ago, he see's the slightest thing of it now hes into action immediately, it may not come under the same legislation as a working dog etc but to me hes still got a job to do and those people who have dog's like yourself should be taken into consideration, but the DWP are so rude and barbaric they don't consider this. Honestly wish i was an assessor, mind you id bankrupt the DWP in ten minutes if i did as everyone would be getting it lol
Thank you for all this, very informative!
Just a thought, If you can do a video on pip assessment when they ask “what if” questions, when they try to ask the tricky questions as-well.
Great suggestion! I'll look at doing a video based on information i know from sources who work within the DWP or those who have had this happen to them and try put one up soon!
Going for my first time claim and face to face assessment this week. Back pain and hip arthritis. Physio has done me a good supporting evidence letter but feeling very nervous!

Thanks for subbing!
Most important to quote how your feeling you can complete tasks on your worst day, and not when you are feeling at your best. Also if you are unsure how to answer a question don't feel under pressure to answer. instead it would help your case if you could have an expert in PIP at your side.
My understanding is its how you are most of the time. You need to be accurate or you can be tripped up by using black and white language like that.
I have a terrible memory, so absolutely dread it.
Are you able to have your paperwork with you?
Yes you are allowed to take all paperwork with you for any assessment to use as a reference.
@@DynamicDuoUK
Thank you for answering. That puts my mind at rest.
Glad you asked👍 I don't remember what i put on forms like that myself
New subscriber great info
Thanks for the sub!
Hi, i just had a pip assessment last week, they wanted to about hospital appointment.. steps from my front door to the car, did i have to take a break, how long the break was, how i felt. how long the journy took and what happened on the journey to the hospital. how many steps from the car to the doors at the hospital, breaks, times for breaks how i felt. then from front doors to reception deck then reception desk to the waiting area then to the dr's office and all the way back. Each stage was steps, how many breaks, times for the breaks etc/
It's great that you are offering guidance for people in this.
Speaking for myself however, I am done with all that. The assessors are a lot more than just liars. The one I saw was a card carrying narcissist who made it abundantly clear it was highly likely I would not receive a favourable outcome. Then went on to infer my best friend, who was along for the ride was a liar. That was within the first three minutes.
I am not the sort that takes offense at anything but throughout the rest of the assessment (sic) you could tell she tried her very best to do so, baiting us incessantly. Horrible experience and one I don't care to repeat.
To par quote Col William Ludlow. "I worked for the government once. I have seen nothing in its behavior since then that would persuade me that it has gained either in wisdom, common sense, or humanity".
All the best to everyone else though and my congrats if you succeed in your endeavors. ❤
I originally applied in Jun 2022, had the phone assessment in Jan 2023 and failed, scoring 0 on both, Mandatory Reconsideration was 0 and Nov 2024 Tribunal was 0. I thought I'd wait and then reapply from Day 1, so have been getting advice from several sources... including your channel, many thanks.
It's common practice 9/10 applicants we speak to always score 0 on both parts in the assessment and then in the Mandatory Reconsideration as well, mostly 70% succeed at tribunal.
However I was actually told by a DWP advisor if you score 0 in both parts but then wait for a tribunal then to re apply again ! It's absolutely madness to do so as surely that's causing a backlog if multiple people keep applying right?
They never get it right first time they've admitted this and said they need to understand why.... 👀👀
I was once interviewed by a DWP Doctor, she was actually lovely, I became so distressed by the box ticking approach, (which does not consider variables) that I broke down, she terminated the interview, they soon paid up.
Its funny how they use the STAR thing and don't tell people. So people are going to a gun fight with a rubber hammer.
I’m glad that I found this and some other people have had the same problem as me , I scored 2 points this time after a phone interview with an independent assessor called Ollie pretty much pretending to be my friend and talking about mountain biking,and interests and he basically tricked me into saying things were fine and he gave me 2 points… this is for Autism, Multiple Sclerosis, Eczema,Anxiety… Last time I was given 27 points just for having Autism, Eczema, Anxiety, and this time it’s Autism, Multiple Sclerosis, Eczema, Anxiety and I only got two points… I mean come on guys 🤷♂️so I have appealed and my doctor has filled out a form and we have letters from Autism Hampshire/ MS Nurse so fingers crossed 🤞
Thats how they get you, pretend to be your friend asking questions about your past life before illness or disabilities and what are you into, then they make up a story that your the next international star. anything to earn their bonus! disgusting dwp behaviour.
I am applying for UC, is it worth getting new style ESA? I don't think I will make it to pension age, so is there any point for the NI?
Dnt let anyone p u off top man ❤
Thanks for a great video....I was taking notes but I'll watch it again to get those responses learned.
I'm on contribution based ESA but it's ending soon.... what would my next move be to get Income based ESA?
(I'm on enhanced PIP in both categories too)
Many thanks, Ralph.
your welcome Raph all the best for the future!
I noticed that the questions appear several times in the different sections, in slightly different format but they're the same questions, designed to obtain different answers....it is trickery and psychological skulldugery.
I had a bad accident last year and damaged the circulation in my leg. I can barely walk and have to take taxis everywhere. I was awarded the standard daily living but NOTHING for mobility. Yet my friend who applied for mental health has been awarded for mobility.....not fit for purpose
Yeah, what is going on with this?
AlWAYS record it and take someone with you
Re earnings . The income from the channel should go into a business bank account to buy equipment and the business should pay a modest wage. The business can contribute to utility bills. Electric, broadband .
You can of course donate to a charity .
Example : I am setting up a cafe/bakery , but my employees need to be fit to move bags of flour , so I can contribute to an exercise class as part of a wellness program. For both physical and mental health , Team building .
Thank you for the feedback we will of course take it on board! appreciate the suggestions and comments it means the world to us! thanks!
Unless you know what to fill out regarding the pip forms etc,you have no chance, unfortunately some of the public have no clue,
Who knew filling out forms could be like cracking a secret code, right?
Just had my second renewal 3 weeks ago after waiting over a year for it, was a telephone assessment, got a txt saying they have made a decision and i will receive a letter within 2 weeks. I still haven't had a letter my anxiety was through the roof, I don't suffer with anxiety but i can only imagine what it's like if you do it's just cruel. If this has happened to anyone just phone them up and the automated service will tell you how much your next payment will be and you can work it out what you got. If i hadn't done this i would still be a jibbering wreck waiting for the postman everyday.
They couldn’t even get my gender right … ask for a copy of the documents, notes . It makes building a case that much easier. they referenced me repeatedly as female if they couldn’t even get the basics right , it made a easy win on appeal.
Worrying that is 😲
Hi Duo, had my pip phone assessment 1.5 weeks ago which was 1 hr 10 mins. I got a phone call today telling me they need to ask some more questions they'll be phoning Monday between 5-6pm Jesus Christ more grilling for me I have to keep calm. I wonder what they'll be asking I hear this happens to other ppl too asking for extra info
Hi there going to be calling you to go over what you've said originally to what you wrote down it's a way to try and catch you off guard and to award less points its a common tactic used, if they score you nothing and you have to have a mandatory reconsideration ensure that you note they did this and your aware it's a tactic to trick people up etc. if you can record it then do so! Hope it goes well keep us updated !
WE DONT WANT DIDGITAL ID DIDGITAL HEALTH PASSPORTS OR CBDC CENTRAL BANK DIDGITAL CURRENCY IE SOCIAL CREDIT PROGRAMME SYSTEM 🤬
Just gone through the pip questionnaire it lasted hr and 10 mins.
i went for a pip interview and a few days later i got a letter saying i had been turned down, but they put me on something called limited capacity to work instead, i didnt ask for this but they put me on it anyhow, who am i to question them huh
Had my phone assessment 3 weeks ago and felt it went well..i've suffered with anxiety and depression for 40 years...i stopped taking medication years ago as i felt it wasnt helping and started meditation Instead...i also have social anxiety and health anxiety..which means avoiding the docs at all cost....i'm stressing that they may refuse pip based on my original diagnosis being years ago...even though it states you dont need a diagnosis....other peeps are telling me i do....so stressed.
You only need a diagnoisis confirmed and proof from a GP or health professional, it doesn't matter when it's dated, if they go down the route its not up to date evidence go back to GP get them to confirm in writing £30 cost usually and then send it recorded delivery back to them under a Mandatory Reconsideration. also a note to point out, 48 hours after your assessment call the pip helpine and ask for a copy of the assessors report from the call to be sent to your home please so you can cross ref what was said between both parties, if there is something you disagree with you can call back to complain and say i want this looking at in my MR as i did not say this or state that.
95% of assessors will lie in the reports in their favour despite you saying one thing they change it...
@@DynamicDuoUK hopefully it won't come to it...but what's the best way to go about the mandatory reconsideration....I downloaded a CRMR1 form...is that correct ?....I've already requested Copy of assessment 2 days ago.
Pick up the medicine,u don't they will not award u it .they are lookin at how u are medicated ,not medicated isnt an option
