    campaign against welfare cuts and poverty

    ...group I'm part of posted a link to a clip of Anna Soubry on the 'Last Leg'. Therein she talks about how she's disgusted with the whole capita/atos process. The usual blah blah blah from well meaning Tories. I say well meaning, because in truth it just wound me up. All it did was a) allow her...

    Ileostomy/Ulcerative Colitis, benefits?

    ...ESA forms . Good luck. I hope I've covered most of it. I think what I've written is correct but things do change. There is also the excellent ATOS thread here, I think it's in P and P. Help filling in your ESA50 form Claiming Personal Independence Payment (PIP) | Crohn's & Colitis UK ESA...

    Atos Medicals - Questions, Answers and Support

    ...given a date for f2f? I think you want to contact the assessment provider—off the top of my head that's Capita or Independent Assessment Services (formerly ATOS) depending on where you live—to request paper-based. Will his GP or another health professional provide evidence to support the...

    Supermarkets like sainsburies, airports, etc, spying on disabled and sick people

    ...audience, desperate in the knowledge that the game was rigged by the psycho-social model of benefit claim denial of multiply-prosecuted ATOS originating in the US. Even though the dreaded WCAs took place months ago, I am still finding it hard to silence those obsessive thoughts and hopefully...

    Help with atos pip assessment needed

    Please go right ahead. I'm just hoping the time I spent researching the subject can help as many people as possible, as is my friend who's edited claim I've included as an example. There isn't anything in there really that isn't already openly published on the .gov website, and my many years in...

    Atos Medicals - Questions, Answers and Support

    ...which supports my claim is a brief letter from my GP and a very long history in my notes. But I appealed. The nub of my argument was that the Atosser only asked about the week before the hearing. I'd had a good week, and said so. The rules say that the claim should be based on the 12 months...

    Farewell to the original Thameslink trains

    'Driverless' is in scare quotes which to me indicates it was not literally without driver. You have a superfluous apostrophe in your last sentence.

    Farewell to the original Thameslink trains

    No it didn't. The train had a driver. It even said so further into the article. Misleading headline and inaccurate terminology as the press feel.it must dumb things down / sensationalize etc. for the masses else fear losing them. What in fact happened is that Thameslink ran its first ATO train.

    ...remember the price of fags and the change from a tenner meant I was able to financially budget OK 3. The tribunal ignored the recording of the ATOS assessment which proves that the HCP was lying. 4. The tribunal ignored the DWP work psychology report that proves that my memory is shit (1 of...

    Interview under caution

    ...is a horrible thing to have to endure, it is, more or less, a way of addressing the short-comings of the standardised tick box system beloved of ATOS, Serco, GS4. The 'under caution' bit is, frankly, old-fashioned 'putting the frighteners on' behaviour designed to intimidate you - don't be...

    Atos Medicals - Questions, Answers and Support

    There's a lot of truth in what you say, but there's a downside, too. For many people coping with long-term conditions, part of the process of coping is normalising their disability as far as they can, and just using the resources they do have to get on with life the best they can. But when they...

    Atos Medicals - Questions, Answers and Support

    Yeah, but they take evidence from doctors into account, don't they? Evidence you provide, I mean, like letters from them and scans and so on.

    My sister has reapplied for PIP after being turned down and ATOS told her point blank that they don't even bother contacting your doctor or specialist they leave it down to the HCP. Yes my sister did record that phone call. :eek: :facepalm::mad:

    ...you actually are disabled, nor that all your actions are affected by your disability, but you must show that they are. This is not only because ATOS et al are despicable, but because they are not you. They need evidence, not just a feeling or your word. They do take doctor's opinions into...

    ...the disabled as an identity (this was something that was also mentioned when I helped work with a friend in the party on getting an anti-ATOS motion to conference). I one commented on their Facebook group that I personally did not see any issue with "person with disabilities" since I did not...
