kward,
That doesn't sound right. The mobility rates of PIP are exactly the same as for DLA. The middle rate care component of DLA is the same rate as the standard daily living component of PIP, and the high rate care component is the same as the enhanced daily living component.
Because the care component isn't directly comparable to the daily living component I would double check what rate you are actually getting - is it standard or enhanced?

Hi I was on high mobility middle care now I’m on standard for both pip components I’m down about £152 a month1

Your mobility has dropped to standard so the difference will be a drop from £61.20 to £23.20 per week, a difference of £38.00 x 4 =£152.00 loss0

Don't think there is a lot I can do

You could ask for a mandatory reconsideration, a month from the date on the decision/award letter, but up to 13 months if you have good reason for not asking earlier.
Did you get copy of the assessors report from DWP showing what you scored?

Hi @popstt, I'm sorry there has been a drop. How long have you had the PIP decision? If it was less than a month ago then you may be able to appeal the decision.
Here is some information about appealing a DWP decision.
If you have any further questions then please do not hesitate to ask0 -
Hi Chloe I’m just worried if I appeal they might take it all of me
