I had my pip tribunal yesterday over the phone and I was successful in overturning the DWP's decision I was already in receipt of part1 mobility and was challenging the decision not to give me daily living the judge was very sympathetic and told me they had already reached their decision before the call and the doctor said I needed to be bumped up to the higher rate mobility aswell so it was a great result and I must admit I shed a tear or too. The DWP make you feel like utter etihs. If you're in the same position keep fighting ☺️

    brilliant. Still awaiting MR decision. Now 4 weeks since they uploaded it onto their system.
    so just hoping it doesn’t get to that stage but it’s worth knowing 
    Good luck ? don't give up ....
