@@itsmephil2255 yup agree, i have been called a faker even though i have all the medical evidence to back it up, it was some pondlife scumbag that lives opposite me!
It's a nightmare to get, if you get it you deserve it. MP's get far more benefits than you do & the rich syphon far more money & benefits than you're ever likely to see. The whole "claimants are spongers" rhetoric is just a useful distraction perpetuated by the governments because it keeps these real spongers & their scandals largely out of the light.
PIP is not awarded for your condition(s). PIP is awarded if you meet the descriptors. Did you read, understand and meet each descriptor? If you didn't meet each descriptor or just a few, you won't be awarded the necessary points. Again, PIP is not awarded for condition(s).
@@itsmephil2255 The expert would have gone through the descriptors with you. And then he or she would ask you the same questions again but worded differently. This is not to 'catch you out' but to ensure you meet the descriptors. You said you answered honestly which would mean you don't meet the descriptors and the points required.
I used a free Pip claim specialist won my claim with ease and flying colours after a 4 hour interview she filled all the forms in honestly & correctly for maximum points. My claim did take several months buts after receiving a letter to say had been awarded Pip the next week I received 2 large payments totalling over 3 thousand pounds as wining my pip claim meant also my ESA monthly payment was increased.
Appeal straight away. It's says wait a year .... but that is nonsense. I have applied twice (both refused) & they say usually it is 3rd time lucky. Tip though ..... don't lie, but when you take that call, you have to "imagine" whilst you are talking to them, that you are on one of your WORST days, not as you feel the day of the call. There are also staff at councils who are employed to help people with the process (well there is in Sussex) & if you can find one, they can make the call on your behalf for the appeal call (whilst you are there) & they know what to say. Still no certainty, but worth a try.
PiP is designed to stop those who really need it from getting it & keeping it. That same overcomplicated system designed around triggers or "descriptors" also makes it easier for scammers who just need to hit these triggers. That said people are also always inflating the number of scammers which plays into the anti-benefits rhetoric.
Don't be fobbed off by the non qualified nerds, who can't possibly understand how your medical issues affect your daily life, fight the decision at lot of these no's become yes on appeal.
@@itsmephil2255 No, but they have a culture that leads them to doubt the validity of claims, call it a negative attitude, so many claims are upheld on appeal that you should at least try
Just been awarded the higher rate mobility , took it all the way to a Court of Appeal...if you believe you have a genuine claim don't give in.
@@geebee6737 well done on getting that 👍🏼
You must appeal the decision also ask your doctor to help
@@kevinhowells5810 that's a good point
I had a serious brain injury and that's a standard letter of refusal, I had to fight 5 years to get my PIP.

I'm on enhanced pip, I hate it and i feel like a sponger but I do welcome the fact i am one of the genuine cases.
@@And_Zo there are definitely genuine cases that should be given help

@@Spyder6664 thanks for the advice 👍🏼
You got to be careful what you say to the DWP and their Assessors they will find a reason to refuse your PIP claim
Even if you do or you don't get PIP why broadcast it in a video on You Tube? Its private and confidential. Keep it to yourself.
@@darrylashton8428 I know what you mean but not giving too much personal information
He's simply pointing out the need to reform an unjust system.
