PIP Mandatory Reconsideration

Hi everyone
I have just been awarded the lower rate for Daily Living and nothing for Mobility. I completely disagree with the decision, however I am wondering whether it’s worth asking for a mandatory reconsideration? I was intending on doing this but I’m now apprehensive after reading that a reconsideration may result in you getting a lower rate or nothing at all!!

How likely is this to happen and on what grounds can they change from giving you a low rat to nothing at all following reconsideration?
Many thanks for your help.

If they can give a higher award after mr then it makes sense they could also make lower award tho as above most stay unchanged
The claim is looked at again by another decision maker so they may come to a diffrtent outcome
If you don't try you won't get and you have to do this first if you want to take it to tribunal where the success rate is a lot higher0 -
