Mandatory reconsideration and 2 under payments

So I wrote another thing out sending a M r off and today I got a phone call saying I had 2 underpayments due... But she didn't want to tell me for how much as they send it off to debt management Incase they need to deduct any money off. 
I only challenged the care component due to the report said i said I'd never been percrubed hearing aids which was untrue and I felt I should have had 2 extra points the whole claim. She did say I was going to get enhanced rate for care now but my question is....cause I know they look at the whole claim again when doing a mr. Rather than just the bit I wrote about is it likely they may have changed the mobility aspect of the claim ( I didn't ask on the phone as I didn't even consider it till I got off the phone)  and thought why are there 2 underpayments ? 
I know I will find out in the next week anyway I just wondered if anyone on here had any ideas. Thanks in advance

    My question really was if they had a successful Mr did the care underpayment and the mobility underpayment get payed into their bank accounts separate.

    She told me I had gone up to enhanced on the care but I didn't even ask about mobility as I didn't consider it until I got off the phone and though why am I getting 2 underpayments 
    Thanks for the reply

    To answer your question, both elements were increased via my MR.  I received only one backpayment covering both elements.

    Thanks for replying and I'll just have to wait and see I guess. I'm an overthinker so brain never shuts off ha. X
