NOT GOOD Especially for disabled people! Did you know that your TAXICARD has an expiry date connected to your ESA/PIP claim? Well l certainly did not. As a TAXICARD HOLDER my card was suspended without any warning or advance notification! Apparently due to my ESA/ PIP claim terminating but it has not terminated and if LONDON COUNCILS used it's access to the DWP database effectively this suspension would have been avoded. I was due to travel using my wheelchair to go in a taxi to my hospital appointment which l missed because of this companies action. Shoddy treatment of disabled people, the telephone representative, just to be even more obstructive, said it takes 10 WEEKS to process and she was almost smug about it. Nothing being done by this organisation to promote disability so disabled travellers please beware of this loophole it does not appear to be widely published. The action to suspend a disabled persons taxicard takes away their ability to travel, engage with the community potentially impacting their mental health and failing in its duty to promote disability equality; which is the whole point of the card!! Absolutely disgusting policy directly affecting ONLY DISABLED PEOPLE should be ashamed of yourselves London councils because my ESA/PIP was appealed and now has indefinite status !!
