Appeal result

hey everyone,
last time I posted for myself it was about the pip assessment fiasco and the resulting result being an assessment that was nothing like how the actual appointment went resulting in my losing ALL my motability points I went from 14 points to zero! Then the mandatorily assessment ignored every point I made resulting in my having to return my car and wait god knows how long for the appeal hearing, on my granddaughters birthday the infamous brown envelope was in the mail - I couldn’t open it I was soo scared of what it may say and when I would be going to Southampton for my appeal hearing so I asked my sister to open it for me, I was staggered they actually read what evidence I had sent when asking for the appeal and awarded me 15 points!!
why can’t they have let me keep my car I had to get a loan to buy a car and put myself into a financial bind!
it must cost thousands for the motability side to recall cars I only had mine 18 months and now I have won my appeal do so I restart the process of getting another car only to lose it in 18 months again???
so friends out there don’t give up hope I bit the bullet and went to appeal and didn’t have to go in the end because they actually listened to me and vitally important they read my evidence resulting in not having to go through the stress of sitting in front of 3 people and baring your soul and praying they listen to you!
I’m chuffed but also angry -it should NEVER come to this! Someone needs to see why assessors are not listening to the people they are assessing and writing their views totally different to what actually was said!

I imagine the thinking is that if they allow you to keep the car whilst waiting for tribunal then, if you lose, they would have to recover the cost from you.
I'd stick with the car that you've got - it's yours, and you don't have to worry about tribunal etc...

The assessor would have to draw her/his own conclusions on a statement like that by way of questioning and observation.
