ESA Appeal can you beat me was created by Gary
Can you out do me?
If you get zero points for your assessment and zero points for your MR don't give up.
I was at a ESA appeal Tribunal this week, the appellant whom I assisted initially had zero points for the initial decision and awarded zero points for the Mandatory Reconsideration.
We had no additional evidence to send in to the Tribunal.
At the Tribunal the Appellant was awarded 63 points and 3 sch 3 Support group descriptors.
Can anyone in the forum beat 63 points from zero, plus 3 Support group descriptors?

Hi Gary
Wow!
That is absolutely stunning. When they lose by that margin, I really think there should be some mechanism for someone going back to the original decisions and seeing just how far they got it wrong. 63 points is not a difference of opinion!

This is just one great example of many that shows how the DWP benefit system is not fit for purpose. Really hope it soon gets the attention it desperately needs to be turned into something that works for all.

It makes you wonder if the claim was even looked at or just tossed on the reject pile.

Hi Becky
The Judge did make a comment on the Decision Letter in regards to the assessors report, the language was quite strong.
