Hi Missy,

If you recall when you asked for advice on who to complain to, I did include an e-mail address in This thread

Glad to hear you now have a new Pathways to Work Adviser, hope they treat you much better

Best wishes.

Jim

I have sent my complaint to the Chief Exec a couple of weeks ago using the contact details found on this thread, but have just come across this page www.direct.gov.uk/en/DisabledPeople/Fina...lsupport/DG_10034232 which says this is only the place to complain if you are concerned with

"Covered benefits

The Disability and Carers Service deals with claims for the following benefits:

* Disability Living Allowance
* Attendance Allowance
* Carer's Allowance
* Vaccine Damage Payments"

Have I complained to the wrong person as I was asking about ESA in my original query?

As far as I'm aware Terry Moran is the Chief Executive of the Pensions, Disability and Carers Service which includes pensions and all disability related benefits, including IB and ESA.

If I'm wrong, don't worry, it will be forwarded to the correct authority.

I think perhaps I should have sent it to the chief exec of Jobcentre Plus as my complaint is with the handling of my claim.

oh now, u did the right thing because jobcentre plus actually take your complaint seriously when it goes through cheif exec, wel they did mine anyway.
