Hi and welcome to the community
Your letter should tell you how to do mr
Always put it in writing not just on phone as you are relying on the call handler noting down everything you say
Doing it in writing gives you more time to think about it
Take each descriptor you think you should score more points and details with real examples what happens when you try and do the task
There is a form on internal to do a mr0 -

Welcome to the community @Snow92 I'm sorry that you didn't get the PIP award you were hoping for.
You might like to read through this page on MRs on the Turn 2 Us website to get an overview of the process, and how you can go about submitting one. This also has a link to the form Janer1967 has mentioned.
As Janer1967 has said, it's important that you focus on making your evidence and examples the best they can be, rather than focussing on whether or not the assessor may have misrepresented what you've said.
Here's a link to the PIP descriptors on pipinfo.net, in case you need to look back over them, and here's a link to a page on the Benefits and Work website that explains some important concepts if you scroll down to 'additional information'.
Perhaps you could give this information a read over, and then let us know if you have any questions?0
