8 months wait and finally got my PIP Assessment but........
Hello Helony, I take that you are dealing with ATOS not CAPITA If it is CAPITA ask about a home visit, they are quite good like that.
If it is ATOS you will probably need to get a GPS note stating that you need a taxi. You would have to phone them and ask, You might even get a home visit out of them its worth trying,

Hi Sue,
Yes it is with ATOS, I shall ring and dicuss with them tomorrow. It talks about refunds for travel on the letter bt from experience I know this isn't always guaranteed!
I don't know, how they think I would get there, obviously don't thunk about people who find it hard to walk and travel! Grrr.
Thanks for your help!

Agree ask for a home visit or a taxi.
Thanks Betty67!
Hi Helony
I hope that you are well today? I am with the other just ask for a home visit, they can only say one of two things? So ti is really worth a try?
Good luck with your assessment

Hi Ken,
Having a frustrating day today, how are you today?
I am worry if I ask they will say no and it state clearly on letter if you do not attend you will be disagreed!
Waited so long, why can't they make it easier!

I know exactly what you mean, I often wonder if these things are done just to test the legitimacy of a claimant, so if you turn up without requesting anything it may look suspicious? So please do not be afraid to ask, it may be the best thing to do? x
Helony, I asked for home visit and got one!!!!! The thing is if you get a taxi by urself they will use that against you, plug for home visit. Its said to say you have to play them at there own game!!!! Good luck hun xx
