PIP result back but not the one I wanted

So sorry you didn't get the reward you wanted.  There is no harm in you asking for a MC?  I am sure someone with experience on here could advise you how to go about it.  I have never asked for one before so not sure how it works.

With regard to your ESA, that is a seperate benefit so it shouldn't be effected unless ESA contacted you to reassess you and then you were deemed as not suitable for the group you are in.

You should call the DWP for a copy of your assessment report, if you already haven't, then you can look to see where you got the 12 points and where you think you should have more.

Doesn't 12 points get you enhanced componant?

A person who scores 8 or 10 points when their level of difficulty with these activities is assessed will be entitled to the standard rate of PIP mobility, and a person who scores 12 or more will be entitled to the enhanced rate. See the assessment criteria below.

Just checked and 12 points should get you enhanced rate so I would call the DWP!  Maybe they have made a mistake!

Hi maestro, you won't lose your esa premiums because you are entitled to those even on standard pip living componant.

As for asking for a mandatory reconsideration for your pip, that really is up to you if you think you can convince them to give you that extra 1 point.

Good luck with whatever you decide.
