RESULT !!

YES! I was due to have the dreaded ATOS medical regarding my ESA migration but got a letter today saying I no longer have to attend because they have enough information ! RESULT! NO MEDICAL !
They say that the DWP will send me a letter soon telling me which group I will be in .

I am so relieved! Joining this group was the best few quid I ever spent and advise anybody trying to claim benefits to join.I filled my forms in with minute detail using the guides.
This process has so far taken a month from receiving the ESA forms to this .The worry has been terrible and me made feel horrible.I lost a lot of sleep.
Now it's just the waiting to see which group I will be in..here's hoping for the correct decision.

Great news! Thank you for posting this. It's always welcome when people post success stories because it's inevitable that a high proportion of posts on a forum like this will relate to problems, so it helps to have reminders for people that there are good outcomes to be had.

Hi Mr X,

I can see how happy and relieved you are, and deservedly so.

Let's hope now that you are put in the correct group to match your limitations.

Let us know.

Well done

cheers

Thanks guys ,yes it's a MASSIVE relief ! I was literally worried sick.
I sent in a about 20 extra pages of typed information regarding my problems and my Dr helped a lot too.I think it's vital to have a good Doctor on your side.The greatest help was the guides from this website.
I will let you know which group I end up in , hopefully very soon.
cheers !
Mr x

Congratulations, you sound over the moon and I can tell it has been a huge worry for you. I am in the *worry* stage myself But I feel some hope reading this so thank you for telling us.

I know the relief! We first used the B&W guides to successfully apply for DLA for our grandaughter who lives with us permanently. We have just used them again as my wife is being moved from IB to ESA. We supplied lots of evidence, including a GP’s letter, and she has been put into the WRAG without a medical. Not sure what will happen in one year though when I understand contribution based benefit will stop.
