Hello Jilly and welcome
Can you tell us a liitle more about your situation ?
Unfortunately it is not uncommon for the HCP report to misrepresent our reality.
Is this your first claim?
When did you receive the decision letter ?
Have you asked for an MR ?
Be all you can be, make every day count. Namaste -

As @CockneyRebel asks above, have you asked for a mandatory reconsideration? We have lots of information about appealing a DWP benefits decision on our website which you may find useful, including the following video:
I hope this helps. If you have any other questions, then please do get in touch!Liam
