Hi, I've just had a text saying my Pip review is complete, which is great, however, my Blue Badge has just discontinued my Badge saying my moving around section is not enough points to accept me for a BB!!!

This has worried me as I'm concerned Pip review hasn't been accepted. I don't know how BB was able to access my current Pip review report. I'm currently waiting for a review letter after a telephone review last week.

    With Blue Badges often you have to score under certain PIP criteria, it isn't always about points.

    You'd need to look at your local authority website.

    It's possible to get standard or even enhanced mobility PIP but not score under the right criteria to qualify automatically for a BB.

    There should still be discretionary criteria you can apply for, if needed.

    Your GP can sign your blue badge form as mine came through my GP along with seat belt exemption.
