The Disability and Carers service is part of the Department for Work and Pensions.
It has an advisory group for which Terrence Higgins Trust are a member and have been very good at escalating issues from contributors here to the DCS - thank you.
The have just released the report on their "Customer Service Survey 2008" - click here to view.
"Those receiving or claiming Attendance Allowance (AA) are consistently the most
satisfied group of customers and the most likely to speak positively of the DCS.
This is likely to reflect the older age of AA customers. Carer’s Allowance (CA)
customers are also highly satisfied with the service they receive from the DCS as
shown through the positive ratings of the CAU. Customers receiving or claiming
Disability Living Allowance (DLA) are consistently the least likely to be satisfied
with the DCS overall as well as various aspects of the service and are also least
likely to speak positively of it.
DLA customers are considerably more likely to have experienced a difficulty or
problem when dealing with the DCS than both AA and CA customers and are
more likely to mention a range of improvements to the service."
