[QUOTE="ladybird64, post: 1024168, member: 29023"] The only reason I know how it all works is through personal experience ickihun, I have a daughter who is registered disabled and have had many fights with these barstewards over the years. I know it's humiliating and demoralising but that is the intention. Don't give up, no matter how **** it makes you feel as you have a right to help after paying your taxes. If you can afford a £20 subscription, this is an excellent site [URL]http://www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/join-us[/URL], they really have helped a lot of people and they know their stuff. CAB are generally good (IF you can get an appt to see them, in certain areas it's difficult), unfortunately in our case, they were absolutely useless and knew nothing about (what was then) the new ESA benefit. It took me 9 months to get a wrong decision overturned, and it was hellish, but it can be done. Get all the evidence together and get yourself some help, I noted that you said you had got no points so I'm assuming you have been turned down. Make sure you appeal, good luck xx [/QUOTE]
