ESA SUCCESS! was created by clairbear
I just want to say a BIG THANK YOU to this site. I recently received the ESA50 form to complete. I was being transferred from Incapacity to ESA.

Following the forums on the MS Society, I clearly saw the problems & difficulties everyone was facing. So, as you will probably guess I was dreading the form coming through the letter box. In the meantime I decided to subscribe to this site and start swatting up in preparation.

The form came and we completed it and sent it off within 2 weeks. I received a brown envelope in the post this morning! I felt sick when I was opening it :S ! And to my suprise I've been put into the Support group, without a medical! I couldn't believe it! I very much doubt this would have happened if I hadn't subscribed to this site! Once again THANK YOU, the work you are doing is FANTASTIC! :cheer:

how long did it take from sending off the paperwork to getting confirmation of your award?

Hello

Well done in getting into the support group without a medical.

I was put into the WRAG group without a medical last week, and although I think I should be in the support group, I havent got the energy to appeal, and just want to forget about it all for a while.

I'm just not looking forward to being summoned to a work related interview
and hope they forget about me , because I know I couldn't cope with work.

Best wishes

Well done clairbear.
It's really nice to read on B&W that some people are not having to face a medical or the appeals process.I hope to read many more successes like this.
