As expected the wait continues...

This is absolute bull sh*t! I can’t believe the wait continues. Well they rang me today, a Friday, at 3.30pm (after I had rung them at 3.00pm) indicating they need more information. MORE INFORMATION! WTF! What more could they want? (Can't you tell how angry I am???)

Firstly, they tried to advise me they hadn’t received my further doctor’s report even though I was advised, via telephone, on Tuesday that the report had indeed been received the previous week and that they should be able to provide me with a decision BY FRIDAY! So I argued, they said they would check again and ring me back. What do you know; they rang me back to tell me they had received the report...Dur!

Secondly, they want me to fill in another form, which is standard practice apparently. If that’s the case, why did it take 4 weeks to receive the form???? Thirdly, they want details about my previous pregnancy with Byron. Particularly, they want to know if I made a previous insurance claim with regards to this condition (which I didn't) and they also want me to confirm the period I had off work during that time. Being the insurance lawyer I am, this does concern me a little...but I will try not to worry about this too much until I have to.

I consider myself a ‘pleasurable’ person to deal with on the phone. I had decided not to be too pushy, but this is no longer!!! They can get stuffed...there will be no more Ms Nice Nicole...she has gone by the wayside, never to return again...they’ll see!
