The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) has shared more details of the new ‘online apply service’ for Personal Independence Payment (PIP). The service is currently only being offered to 60 new claimants each day who call the PIP phone line to start their application.
DWP Minister for Disabled People, Tom Pursglove MP, explained in a written response to Labour MP and chair of the Work and Pensions Committee, Sir Stephen Timms that “only those claimants who are able to apply online, and feel comfortable doing so, are offered a digital application” adding that “call agents offer this voluntary option to new PIP claimants within scope of the current service until the daily limit is met”.
This would suggest that anyone keen to complete their whole application for the disability benefit - worth between £26.90 and £172.75 each week - should call the dedicated ‘PIP new claims’ phone line on 0800 917 2222 early on in the day, before the daily cap is met.
Sir Stephen asked DWP who was taking part in the "small-scale test of the digital PIP service" and "whether organisations supporting disabled people would be able to offer to contribute to it".
Mr Pursglove replied: “As we test the new online apply service for PIP, it is currently being offered to a small number of claimants who call the department to begin a new claim. Currently, we are offering the service to 60 claimants a day.

Michael Schneider Variety Editor at Large Let’s travel back to the summer of 1989. I’m 15 years old and have just put two large movie posters on my wall: One for Tim Burton’s game-changing take on “Batman,” starring Michael Keaton, and the other for “UHF,” the theatrical comedy debut for the one and only “Weird Al” Yankovic. It’s now 2023. Keaton is back as Batman in next month’s “The Flash.” And Weird Al (always Weird Al, not just Al Yankovic!) is the front-runner for this year’s TV movie Emmy, thanks to the Roku Channel parody biopic “Weird: The Al Yankovic Story.” “1989 is back again! It’s all cyclical,” Yankovic says in his signature cheery, upbeat tone. Tell my 15-year-old self that one day he’ll be recording a podcast with Weird Al, and first he’d say, “what’s a podcast?” But after explaining that it’s essentially a radio show, my 15-year-old self would lose his mind. And ask about 2023’s flying cars. Sorry kid.

Todd Spangler NY Digital Editor It’s the big launch day for Warner Bros. Discovery’s Max — and the newly revamped streaming service appears to encountering some technical problems right off the bat. On Wednesday morning, subscribers took to social media to complain that they were having logging in to Max, which is replacing the three-year-old HBO Max service. As reported by users, the issues spanned the Max.com website as well as mobile apps including iOS and connected-TV apps on Roku and Samsung TV. Of course, there are bound to be some problems in migrating millions of customers over to a new streaming platform. A Warner Bros.
