Had a shock yesterday.

Had a letter from DWP Re: PIP Yearly Update..

I realise it's blatantly obvious, I presuming that I have got P.I.P., and it is higher amount than when was DLA.

But was expecting ( and I haven't had a letter yet) a more informative letter explaining the award.

Also and I am ashamed to admit this but the Mobility Component. I was expecting more?

Spastic right leg and gout in left big toe, renders me virtually Immobile when I get this

Is the Mobility element a low rate?

The daily living amount is higher than the.Mobility, and really emphasised about my leg and walking problems.

But the letter in my opinion belittles my disability/leg/gout problems. 

Or should I keep shut?

I emphasise again I am extremely grateful for the ward (presuming I have read right( a bit of paranoia))

Also Under the old D.L.A., award I had my car tax paid as  part of my entitlement to D.L.A.,

I also get Bus Pass and Bl

Does this new amount entitle me to any future tax exemption?

If any of you could.please enlighten?

Did you apply for pip and go to the assessment? If not this is probably still DLA isn't it? 
The pip award is detailed in what you have/ haven't got.
It's standard or enhanced. There is no low rate.
