Is it worth Contesting the Assessors Report (pip review) prior to a decision being made? Has anyone had a positive outcome from doing this please?

You would be best talking to a benefits advisor. It's mainly to do with timing as the DWP may already have the report. You can call PIP and put in a complaint about the assessment. This is a hard one to answer.

Hi @grandmaof4. I haven't been through this myself. Do you feel the assessors report is inaccurate?

Unfortunately yes. Most of the details were recorded correctly in the FH part of the form but then it didn't correspond with the descriptor points :(

Apparently a decision has been made before I had chance to send my letter off.

Just waiting for it to arrive and then it will be a MR :(

Ah sorry you weren't able to do anything before the decision was made. Hopefully you'll be successful with the MR 🤞

I literally wrote it all out ready to send special delivery the next day and then got the text 'your review is completed' the bext day :(

Rachel_Scope

Oh no! Such bad timing. Let us know how you get on with the MR and we're here if you need any help 😊
