Hi this is my first post.
I had my PIP telephone assessment last week and called for the report this morning.
The lady on the phone told me "You can't ring up with any discrepancies of your report until you have the final decision" has anyone had this said to them? 
I'm slightly worried now the assessor has gone against me.

    Hello @lauste

    Welcome to Scope's forum. It is great to see you have joined us. How are you today? Thanks for reaching out to us. I can hear how nervous you are feeling. Unfortunately, PIP is not an area of my expertise. This means I can only hope someone with more knowledge in this area will be able to respond to you soon.

    In the meantime, I mainly just wanted to respond to greet you and let you know that we hear you  :)

    Hi and welcome to the community 

    When you call you are ringing an outsourced call centre and not always given best advice 

    After getting the report don't forget it is only a recommendation and not the final decision and as such you can't put in for a mr until you have the decision 

    But you can provide further evidence after getting the report b4 a decision is made
