I seem to have been awarded PIP. Help.

Hello!
I applied for PIP 73 days ago on the 5th of July and got my first payment of £1,569 today on the 16th of September. I am a little puzzled because I did not get a phone assessment, but did provide a lot of evidence and told them that it is difficult for me to speak on the phone. (I have autism and OCD for anyone wondering) Does this happen often? I didn't think it was possible to receive PIP without an assessment, but I am very happy and grateful because they seemed to have listened to me and my healthcare providers.
Also, I believe the letter will follow soon, but I was wondering what rate I received. I am expecting the daily living component because I do not have mobility issues.
Thank you.

Hello, I would say that amount you have received is 10 weeks of enhanced daily living and enhanced mobility
