    Hi @magsmary and welcome

    Alas it is not unusual for MR not to change a decision, your next step is to appeal to tribunal where the success rate if you attend is around 70%

    Hi @magsmary welcome to the community! Sorry to hear what has happened, have you checked out the information provided in our appealing a DWP benefit decision? This advises you what steps to take after a Mandatory Reconsideration :)
