    Yup i've been claiming PIP for 3 years, even had my review last year. Never had any problems, with either of my claims. Award was increased last year and got given 3 years instead of 2. Mobility was increased to Enhanced, and assessment report was 100% truthful.

    I'm on enhanced for both care and mobility for 10 years. After appeal. But was already in receipt of DLA then PIP since 2014.

    I'm on High rate PIP for both and had absolutely no problems, was seen and assessed and informed 2 weeks later that I had been awarded them both.

    I was on low rate DLA prior to change over.

    3 year award.
