    Hi @nicnat68

    I'm really sorry this has happened, this doesn't sound fair at all!

    This is not something I am familiar with I am afraid but it may be worth contacting Motability Scheme customer service directly if you haven't already and explain the situation to them.

    I'm wondering if it may be possible to appeal the decision especially as you were in the middle of getting a scooter instead.

    The wheelchair and scooter division of Motability is a separate entity, or so I was told when I returned my car, in favour of a powerchair. Maybe this won't affect your ability to lease a scooter? You would have to call and ask.

    That is unfair. You can not prevent the named driver from using. Hopefully, you can get a scooter.

    It's a shame that you don't have the money or anywhere to store it. If you were able to afford a car someday at least there shouldn't be a problem with where to keep it as I take it there is a car park at your building?
