@Kizzie58 oh I hope for you too, I rang them this morning and they told me over phone ,very happy that the decision stayed the same , hope its soon for you 

@Kizzie58 hi have you heard anything yet?

No nothing from PIP yet.    I had £250 put into my account this morning from ESA   no idea what that is for.    not heard anything from ESA about it ending because of the pension starting but I gather that is half ESA and pension will do the rest when I get my first one.  but no explanations,  even my ESA would not have been due until Tuesday .     but I guess they know what is what so that's all that matters  😂

Did you get any surprises or disappointments?  

I was so hoping to get enhanced mobility so don't have to worry about a car or repairs etc.  But  I don't think I will get it and this would be my last chance. It's just a huge shame I didn't know how to answer some of the questions and took them at face value..

I'm also still waiting after sending my review forms back in May. My award was originally meant to end in January and I've had 3 update texts so far so I wonder if they'll go long enough to need to send me a 4th.
