Hi there 

You have to contest the decision. Ask for a mandatory reconsideration immediately do not hesitate to do so. Gather all the required evidence. Also ask your local CAB office for advice and support. 

Paddy has just had a Tribunal hearing and failed to get the minimum number of points for an award.

Well just back from the tribunal. Went from 2 points to 7 . 1 point under what can I do now . Give up and start again . Or can I contest the tribunal and how . Feel so let down 

I'm sorry to hear that. Only way to appeal this decision is if an error in law was made. You'll need to ask for the statement of reasons and 

……….and record of proceedings

Ya best get your new claim filled in properly. By the charities . Such hard work 1 point out . Not gonna let them win probably in a better position now as more meds and help blah blah . Are the records from this claim held for a new one 

I would strongly suggest that you do seek help somewhere asking for them to give an opinion on the merits of your entitlement. It is possible that you are not entitled to PIP  
Yes they are kept by the DWP. Putting in a new claim so soon after failing at a Tribunal will be hard to get past the DWP unless the new claim is so well completed with good evidence.

Asked for the statement of Reason . Ya the charities gave me 12 points pre tribunal so from 2 to 7 getting somewhere ??
