I understand that it is rare for a DWP mandatory reconsideration decision maker to change the decision of the first decision maker. DWP like to make it as hard as possible for claimants to get the PIP rates to which they are entitled. However, over 60% of appeals to a tribunal are successful. But before you can appeal to a tribunal, you have to ask DWP for a mandatory reconsideration first.

Thank you so much for your replies. My husband got his decision this morning along with the report from the capita accessor. His pip payment award is the same low rate as his dla even though since then he has suffered a heart attack and the aneurism in his head has grown. Then when I read the report from capita all I can say is it is total lies. It's like reading an assessment about someone totally different. Both my husband and I are so so annoyed over this. More so about the lies in the report than the award
