Can anyone recommend it is worth paying the £19.99 for the membership to get help with PIP mandatory reconsideration?

    Hi @msaysh

    I've edited the title of your thread to reflect your poll question.  Are you thinking of paying for help with a MR?  If so, what part of the MR are you struggling with?

    To reassure you, there's no need to pay for help as there are many sources of free support available otherwise.  From asking on our community, to speaking with an independent local welfare organisation which you can find via Advice Local. 

    Please don't feel that you have to personally fund advice and information - disabled people already face so many barriers to accessing support, and you could spend the money saved by asking us on something else :)

    @Cher_Scope thank you for your support. I dont know where to start. Do I need to start from the beginning or just answer the questions which I feel was not awarded adequately?

    The Citizens Advice Bureau helpded me with that and I cant praise them highly enough. My local branch has a specialist benefits advisor but Im not sure if every branch does. Maybe somebody on here would know.
