    @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..    @Kizzie58 no idea about your payment or esa, but do hope you hear soon , yes I got both enhanced again till 2028 a year more than previous,  such a relief,  please let scope know soon has you hear ,fingers crossed for you 😊

    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.

    I would like to add my own experience of when my PIP was to be reviewed, I had sent the forms back with up to date evidence (which was from the hospital ) this would have benn about October 2023, I waited for 4 months I did ring but was not given anymore information, I did get a letter saying the PIP had been extended for a year then about a month later I got one of those official PIP letters stating what you get etc, and I was thankful that it had not been reduced, then as I read it the next review was in March 2028, I don't know if this time they were just being nice, after the last review which all I will say is they put me through hell , so I was not expecting this outcome to be good.

    It doesn't matter if they've lost it you've got proof it's been sent & delivered
