hi,,a quick question iv just realised (becouse my wife takes care of all the bennafits).that we are on esa ,it was them that started this claim process becouse they sent us a letter saying we had applied for my wife to be my appointee,,we hadent and never had,we phoned up and found out our money had been stoped over the phone,,we then had a conversation with some guy on the phone and he reinstated our money there and then,,he was just a guy who awnserd the phone how he could stop and start payments at his own discretion isbeyond me,,anyway we thought we had sorted it out they wanted me o have a face to face at home to see if i needed this appointee,..so the next thing a fortnight later we get the letter to claim pip,,,,i sort of expected it,,my question is this will i also (now iv claimed for pip),have to go through a seporate claim for esa,,or have aface to face for esa??,,im very worried about this as the pip process is killing me,,thanks in advance ,,,thank you john,

sorry i forgot to say that we are allready on esa,and have been for a long time now,,i was just woundering becouse on here iv seen people say they had to have both,,at the moment im on esa,,,dla,,thank you gordon,,,,,,john
