Can a Decision Maker be overruled?

Had my MR looked at, was told on the phone by a decision maker that she was going to overturn the original decision and award me the standard rates for both daily living and mobility (previously awarded neither).

However, it seems like the arrears have not been authorised yet as I am yet to receive a payment in my bank account, despite it being a week or so since the phone call.

Is there examples of somebody overturning a decision like this even once it has been looked at? Because at this rate, I will receive my 'award letter' next week having received no payment, and we all know what that means... :(

    Hi there 

    Ir takes a while for the payment to process it needs calculating , checking for any debts then authorising and paying then clearing in your bank 

    So I think you just need to wait a bit longer for the payment and letter 

    If you were told what the award would be then that will be correct
