Hi jama

As it is a Tribunal decision, you need to look at the decision letter from the Tribunal, it will give you the date from when the decision starts from , it should also tell you how long the award is for.

You need to make a note of this date so that you do not forget when to re-apply, we usually advise claimants to contact 6 months to a year before their claim ends.

Hi
I have got a text "We tried to call you about the bank details for your child's Disability Living Allowance claim but could not contact you" from dwp and despite calling/waiting dla for many time was not able to talk.
Does this indicate a successful claim or still application is in process?
Thank you.

Hi Jama

I can't be certain, but normally they want to check bank details because they want to be able to pay a claimant money.

Are you phoning the number from a DLA letter you have received or the one on the DLA home page

OR

one contained in the text?

If the latter then I would check it against the DWP numbers and if different then this could be a scam to gain access to your bank accounts,

As a general rule, never use links or telephone numbers in texts, messages or emails, always look the information up on the companies official website.
