Pip success story!

Hello, I just thought I’d share my PIP success timeline because I know there can be a lot of doom and gloom with regards to applying for PIP but my experience really wasn’t bad at all.

Thank you so much everyone at B&W for your guides, It made the whole process so much easier.

April 15th- Called PIP to apply
April 22nd- Received form
April 27th- Pip received my application form.
June 26th- Telephone assessment. Lasted nearly 2 hours. Assessor was lovely!
June 27th- Assessor called again to double check some things.
July 11th- Got a call to say I’ll be getting awarded enhanced rate for both!

So 3 months in total.

I’m so relieved this is all over now, I had prepared myself to go to tribunal.

Good luck to everyone who is going through the process at the moment.

Unfortunately I’d agree that having a nice assessor is the exception. The last time I applied my experience was a lot more negative than this and I had to take it to tribunal. Ditto when I applied on my son’s behalf.
