My first question would be "How soon can you put that in writing and get it in the post to me" followed by "when do I get my money?" Hopefully, both will happen now and you'll get a bit of Christmas spending money.

I didn't quite understand why you were told that there were 20,000 appeals in the system.

Was that an excuse for not being able to find one of them?

I wonder how many of the 20,000 appeals are ESA appeals?

I wouldn't be surprised if at least 19,000 are appeals of this kind!

Nothing on this board constitutes legal advice - always consult a professional about specific problems
