Hi @dannyboy1990, and welcome!
Sorry to hear this- I'm not sure of the answer myself! ESA and PIP are usually considered two separate benefits so it may be that your PIP isn't affected, but it might be a good idea to be prepared for this just in case. What was the appointment you missed and did you have a good reason for doing so? Our community members may be able to advise you further with this. -
Hi dannyboy and welcome
ESA and PIP are separate. if your ESA is stopped you will continue to receive PIP as long as you meet the criteria
