Pip questions in award letter don’t match what I gave
So I received my award notice to be told that I don’t qualify for pip. The reasons it gave don’t match what I said. For example, it says I don’t need pip because I can walk more than 200m. I can and I told them I can walk no more than 100m. It goes on like that throughout the whole list. Help!
