Hi all, I've just been awarded pip standard daily living after a mandatory reconsideration. I've heard that I should be entitled to severe disability premium as I live alone and am on income based esa. I'd like to use it to engage some support with attending appointments etc. Is it possible to apply for it in writing as I find phone calls impossible?

Yes you are eligible and you should call ESA and apply on phone your severe disability premium and they will ask you few questions and they will pay you back dated when your PIP started hope it will help
