DLA to PIP 'The Call Back'

So, I had my assessment and received my rejection letter on 18th, with all sorts of invalid reasons and lies as to why I'm not entitled to PIP. So in tears I call them, explain what I think is wrong. They stated that I would get, what they call. 'A CALL BACK' within 24hrs to five days. Trembling with anger I have to wait for this call, stewing on what's been said in the letter and the number of inaccuracies. By the 24th may, no call, so I call them, was told they have to the end of play on 25th May, to call me back. So the next day I wait for this call and at 17.45 I end up calling them, they apologise and state I will defiantly get a call either 26th or 27th, so guess what, no call, I called them yesterday 31st may, was told they will escalate this, I'm still waiting, in the meanwhile I'm running out of time to ask for a reconsideration, not to mention the stress of my dla stopping next week.

I am sorry that you are going through this

I think the call-back, even if it does come, will not change any of the material facts. I would recommend that you get on and submit the Mandatory Reconsideration request without waiting. I would think that waiting for the phone call should be accepted as 'good cause' for late submission of the request - but why take chances if you don't need to?
