I'm really, really sorry this happened to you. The system is horribly unfair. Just please remember that this is a govt wishlist of what they want - it's not guarentees of what will happen.

I'm on contribution based as well as I used to work - also I'd really love disabled people who working made their illnesses and disabilities worse (this is what happened to me). Do you mean your assessor lied?

RE assessments, they are designed to catch people out - disabled people aren't really an investiment for govenments because even if we work, we cost them money - like children, pensions and internation aid - they don't see the value.

With my assessment there was a YouTuber who was really helpful that I used when filling out my PIP, I'll try to find her on line she specalises in getting people PIP, doing tribunials etc and gets PIP herself so she understands, I think she's called Charlie Anderson

I never received 4 points in a the care element but did receive enough points to receive the care element. I did believe I should have got more points in a few categories but because I didn’t want to rock the boat I left it. It looks like that decision is going to come back to haunt me!

I tried to cut the second part of your question in the reply. Sorry. I my reply was in regard to this:

"Well I just checked my PIP award and I did get a singular 4 in my daily living, so as long as I get the same score in my next review then I should be fine I think?"
