My full name is showing, how can I stop it?



I've moved your post to its own topic, you replied to a post from several years ago..

No, you don't have to wait if you reasonably think that you would receive a higher award under PIP than your current DLA one then you can contact the DWP and ask to be transferred or you can just phone the PIP Claim line, there are details in our PIP Claim guide

Be aware though, once you start the process then you cannot stop it and retain your DLA award, so think carefully before you initiate it.
