Well Recived PiP Decision

19 Replies

And not very happy as it’s been reduced from both enhanced to standard rates.

Clearly am going to appeal AS they seem to think I don’t suffer leg swelling even tho I get surport stockings for swelling of my doctors.

Also the say I don’t have muscle issues YET am under bone doctor for wasting muscle issues.

It’s funny how sat here feeling quite sick AND pip reduce my help as am apost to be much better.

So guess am just waiting for call to return my car.

Looks like GP is going to have to come see me AS this no way I can walk there.

The are disgrace

Hi

Contact mobility sooner rather than later, depending on the length of time you have been a customer, you may be entitled to a transition payment, which you can take , or use to extend the lease If you are asking for reconsideration. If you take the cash and return the car, you can still rejoin at a later date. Speak to them soon keep them in the loop as to your intentions.

in reply tostone-UK

Hi stone thanks for reply ... I was thinking same as in later part of your reply might even be plan.

Sorry to know this but it seems to be more and more the case that people have their payment reduced or taken away or just not given in the first place. It's really outrageous. I know you've got a lot going on with your own health and your dad's and you really don't need this extra hassle. Good luck with your appeal 🤞

in reply toHungryHufflepuff

Cheers n thanks am just hoping get over flu for now not got it in me to stress over that but have thought about my meds appointment’s.
