    Hi @monty1234, I've moved this discussion to our PIP category, which you might like to have a scroll through. You may also find our information on appealing a DWP decision helpful.

    Hi monty and welcome

    Although complaints about assessors, assessments and the DWP are important when you have been unfairly treated, the only way to achieve an award is to show that you meet the criteria for one

    Hi Monty
    Is this a change from DLA too PIP ?
    If you have a PIP award what rate are you getting ?
    Do you get the mobility component ?

    Unfortunately this is a common occurance, but complaints will not win you your award. Your job is to show that you meet the criteria for an award

    Have you asked for a mandatory reconsideration ?

    This is the first stage that you need to go through to challenge the decision

    It is very important that you are aware of the rules retating to the mobility component if this applies to you.

    When you reach 65 the mobility component that you have can never be increased even if your needs change

    As this is your change over from DLA to PIP it is the only opportunity the set your mobility needs for the future

    Sorry to hear that

    The tribunals are independant and will have looked at all the evidence not just the  HCP report.
    Have you asked for a statement of reason from the judge ?
    If an error in law can be found then you might be able to challenge to the UTT.

    Hopefully one of the advisors might be able to give you some help

    Can you claim Attendance allowance ?

    @monty1234 You do not have to be living with someone to apply for Attendance Allowance as it's based on the help that you need not the help you get. However there is no mobility component so it may be better to continue your fight to get PIP. Expert benefit advice would be a great help for you. Try ringing the Scope Helpline or contact CAB in your area.

    It is a long shot but you could try getting your local MP involved

    Sorry but I am at a loss now to find any other way forward for you, Hopefully one of the advisers may have some suggestions

    Hi @monty1234, I've moved this post into our Ask a Benefits Advisor category. Our advisors are receiving a large volume of enquiries at the moment, but somebody will be in touch ASAP and hopefully able to advise you further.
