    WHO AM I:
    My name is Charlie and I am disabled. I live with chronic illness, I have a severe form of Psoriatic Arthritis and its crap! I am in pain all the time and always battling fatigue. BUT, I will not let it win. I love to learn and to laugh (even though it hurts my arthritic rib cage LOL). You will often see Ollie (she) my black Labrador. She is currently my trainee assistance dog! We are together, literally ALL the time.
    As there are a number of awful people who target us - the vulnerable - here is a link to my personal LinkedIn account. You can literally see the past 25+yrs of my career, people who have recommended me (as a Logistician as Disability Specialist is very new for me).

    I am so greatful for people like you.
    I never thought that being chronically ill with a health condition would mean that u have to constantly prove that ur ill to literally everyone all of the time whether professional or personal and all of these new benefit changes and plans have frightened the life out of me!.
    Being chronically ill or disabled is like living on a knife edge but ur videos have been helping me 😢
    Its extra difficult if u dont have a mum or dad who can help u.
    This really is a stressful time for everyone and its horrendous 😞

      I know. But Tory supporters are flooding news sites with fake news, to try to get the public to turn on disabled. A distraction technique. Despite claimant fraud within PIP system, being almost zero. The only evidenced fraud I've seen appears to be organized & overseas (Bulgaria). Involving those who haven't even set foot on our soil.

    I have helped several people that I know with their PIP (and ESA) assessments, I still find the whole thing hugely stressful but have gained the PIP they needed at either MR or Tribunal stage, none of them got me involved before except my Husband, and the assessors blatantly lied about everything. Although after a complaint was put in even before his MR they suddenly awarded higher rate of daily living and lower of mobility, both were approved at higher rate on MR. So I think I can fill in the paperwork and forms etc but I just hate doing them, each of them has taken me many hours and I am tired of having to fight when it’s for people who absolutely are entitled to the benefits they now get. I don’t have the amount of energy to do this I need and it’s people I know who are totally desperate..

      Re the lies, you can record your interaction on the phone. They usually record theirs & tell you so prior to speaking to you. Under Data Protection law you can request & view any information gathered on you, written or recorded . Anyone I meet in person , i take notes during that meeting. I then email them afterwards confirming what was said & agreed by both of us: & asking them to confirm they agree or feedback if & why they disagree. Legally this is going to give you a massive advantage if they lie or misrepresent what you said.

    Asking for a friend, who has Fibromyalgia, multiple symptoms...fatigue of course, feeling like every nerve ending is on fire whike outwardly looking normal. I believe that he's entitled to PIP, he's tried once and been knocked back and seems to be leaving it.....I think that it's worth making another PIP claim (past time for MR) .... I believe that he's entitled to some help ... I would say... I Can't believe that he got neither component ... except that I'm going to my second MR in 4 years atm and I did have a lifetime award for DLA 🤷‍♀️ they don't play fair and ppl need someone to help explain the process , as Charlie is 😅 ....thanks

    I have autism & fibromyalgia etc. I'm usually bed-bound. I never leave my home. My DLA was stopped. It took 18 months just to get a home assessment. Due to the nature of my autism I rarely saw a GP. Was not diagnosed with autism until 31. And never see any professionals to be able to evidence my problems. It took another 2 months for DWP to agree to let me record. They also wanted a copy of it. I can't communicate face-to-face. Even communication with my advocate was all via email. I had help creating 2 pages of info; that answered questions they were likely to ask. My advocate explained my autism & inability to communicate face-to-face. I was unable to speak to them throughout. Yet I got zero points for face-to-face/communication. Ironically I got full points for many other categories. Probably mostly for being in bed & not letting them touch me. And I got the highest payment + backdated. But it does make me angry that if I'd just had autism I'd probably have received nothing & been forced to work. When even with much support; I could barely even function before the fibromyalgia.

    Should have watched this and the other videos before I applied. Had a telephone assessment. I found it hard to get through without crying. Not because of the assessor, but it was the realisation of how physically disabled I've become. I also cried when I filled out the form. I cried when I went through my answers with my wife the next day. I am a 6ft 54 year old man who should not be crying for what seems like no reason. I didn't want to apply for PIP but was talked into it by others around me, some of whom have chronic conditions and claim PIP themselves. I don't want to be a burden to anyone.

  • @leaperrins8373
    @leaperrins8373 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    Interestingly, an AMA on reddit with a couple of PIP assessors highlights that the issue is often with the auditors, not the assessors. The assessors try and put people through for points but get told to mark down and correct the points by the auditors. They also report that they get in trouble if they are repeatedly requested to do this. To begin with, ALL of their cases are audited, after that it's the odd few.
    I had no awareness of this before the AMA so it's an interesting view into the weird world of the DWP.

    Whats going to happen if and when they introduce the new severe disability group? Unlike pip it will depend on your conditions. One of the categories is syndromes ofbpain and fatigue i have fibromyalgia i wonder if that will get me in the group. Worrying times folks. 😔

    Hi Charlie. This is my first claim for PIP! Would you recommend the paper form or online. They sent me the online form, but you can not go back and edit the information when they ask about 'telling them about your condition.' Frustrating.

    I agree with you it's not difficult if you are really disabled I got it in 2020, and I think if something Inpacts your life so grately you want to find out what it is I didn't but should of called an ambulance in Feb 2020 but was to scared of catching a so called killer virus so as I could breathe mostly which is all I had I didn't want this to be in jeprady by this killer virus so I waited till I was able to see in more ways than one🙄, different hospital doctors to tell me what's wrong had xrays paid for mris and even though I've had 2diagonis I'm still not satisfied so will continue to find out all that's wrong with me so people should also try to gather evidence for their case but this can be very challenging with our health system especially now and I understand this is not always needed for a pip claim.

    I tried for PIP years ago ,I have lumbar scoliosis,they wrote back saying the curve in my spine was'nt curved enough?How do they know what pain I get,were they even doctors who looked at the information I had sent them?we now exist on my husbands pension as doing too much gives me back pain,I can walk but after a while theres pain and bending hurts,yet this PIP form asks if you can walk!

    • @voiceofreason6686
      @voiceofreason6686 16 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Therein lay the problem. You're being too British. We're taught to grin & bear it. You have to put yourself first. Pain is a warning to stop. The form will have asked if you can walk 20 metres, 50 metres or 200. You should answer only with what causes no pain. So, if you can only walk 15 metres without pain, then you can't even walk 20 metres. Don't be a hero. The average person would not expect to be in pain. If you are, then you can't complete the task. And if asked to walk that far by the assessor, refuse on grounds of chronic pain.
      Note: If you have not already had a PIP claim, you will need to claim attendance allowance instead, if over pension age.

    PIP should have another name " Disability Discrimination " even the United Nations has this !!!!!!!! I've been through a tribunal where I was awarded my PIP however on my next review PIP Review Board took that against me because I'd gone over there heads.
    I'm now filling a PIP form for the third time, DLA was much simpler for people and organisations to fill in and get a decision quicker and route out genuine from those trying to beat the system. Before I retired because of ill health I used to teach Economics and International Business Management with Sales & Marketing at Manchester University , I find it difficult at the way the PIP Advisors speak to you
    ( Attitude ) I never spoke to anyone in my working life like they speak to there clients ( us ) I just cannot understand there attitude.

      Did you have a home assessment? That will help. But working from home is a thing they'll now consider as a viable option. Did you emphasise your inability to function neurotypically? Not being able to focus, unable to sleep, exhaustion, panic etc? Things that can make working from home also impossible. Don't worry about it now. What's done is done. There's always appeal if it doesn't go well. And many win at appeal. Good luck 🍀

      If you have never received PIP before you will need to claim Attendance Allowance instead. But you need to have had the difficulties for 6 months because of your condition. I believe with PIP it's only 3 months. So some things are slightly different.
