hi all
its been one month yesterday since my review and I had been waiting 11 months before that. I got paid my normal PIP yesterday.Which is standard mobility and higher daily living. I called PIP this morning to check if the award was the same for next month on the automated service. It said I was receiving  £686.19 next month so I assume I have been awarded again and my mobility has gone to enhanced? 

My question is that when I add up the rates it doesn't quiet add up. Its only off by literally a few pounds and I don't mind at all. I just wondered if this money could be something else other than my award and I've just assumed I've been awarded? 

Any thoughts? Sorry for waffling on. Its been a long road to get to this point and I just want it all to be over.

thanks so much

    The PIP automated phone line is known to have it's problems and isn't always accurate. The best way of finding out would be waiting for a payment in your bank account and reading a letter that will be on it's way, if you can't wait for this then if you phone PIP back and hold to speak to someone then they'll explain if you are due a back payment and check if you have been awarded higher.

    That being said, I do hope it's good news.
