As you may be aware. Though this is our blog for the community.  I also run forums elsewhere in various other community's that have an interest including the wider disabled community.

Today I heard from one individual who I have been in touch with.  In February of this year there DLA was withdrawn and they decided to appeal.  Today they told me the decision had been overturned and the payments back dated to February.

Whereas we always encourage you to press for a re-review and/or appeal (Oral is best).  We know it is a decision you have to take with some thought.  We have always supported people in whatever they have chosen to do as we fully understand the issues.

However this demonstrates that the process does work sometimes and is one of many cases on this blog.
