Hi@Alex friend went cab in Winsford as no help at Northwich , but because he had no time to find help he needed filled in the form himself for appeal , of which CAB. Advisor did think would not help to get points back ! Be better doing fresh claim ! In the mean time friend is down on the money front and struggling , as become ill with the stress of it all and sunk into a deep depression his skin complaint as become acute bleeding and big sores all over is body making it impossible to move or do anything without pain . His hands are a mess to . He won't be able to keep his car on the road costs , that's him isolated now . He needs a car where he lives it's in the sticks a bit he cannot walk about ! I'm worried about him , he's on verge of nervous breakdown !! fiiled in a form on line for welfare rights to help still await there visit ! They don't reside in the council offices at vale royal anymore as were told ? It's awful the way pip claimants are being treated face to face they didn't look at records Ect surmised not in pain ? It's making those already iLL far worse it's so sad .
