Refused PIP? See how we’d argue your case, free.
Tell us about your decision and the activity you find hardest. Within 3 hours, your free PIP preview arrives by email: a six-page review of your case, showing where you stand on points, your deadline, and your hardest activity argued the way your full letter would argue it. £0. No card details. No obligation.
Why is it free?
Because we’d rather you see the quality of our work before you pay for anything. If the preview helps and you want the full letter, it’s £49. If not, you’ve lost nothing.
- No card details. The checkout total is £0.
- No phone calls. We only ever email.
- No pressure. No timers, no made-up deadlines.
- Yours to keep. The preview is yours, whatever you decide.
Refused PIP? You don’t have to decide blind.
Most people who are refused PIP don’t know whether their case is worth challenging. The free preview answers that, using what you tell us about your decision and your daily life.
It isn’t a leaflet. It’s about you: your points, your deadline, and the activity you struggle with most, argued the way we argue it in a full letter. Then you decide.
Deadlines still apply. You normally have one calendar month from your decision letter to ask for a Mandatory Reconsideration. Your preview shows your date.
Four things your preview tells you about your case.
Written for you, from what you tell us. Not a template.
Where you stand on points
Your daily living and mobility scores shown against the 8 points for the standard rate and 12 for the enhanced rate, so you can see the gap.
Your deadline, in plain sight
The date your request must reach the DWP, worked out from your letter, with what to do if it has already passed.
Your hardest activity, argued
The descriptor we would argue for, why it fits, the reliability test from regulation 4(2A), and what to be ready to say.
What the decision probably missed
All twelve activities checked, and the errors in your decision we would challenge first.
The same question. Two very different answers.
Your preview argues your hardest activity the way your full letter would. Here’s the kind of difference that makes.
Preparing food: “Can you prepare and cook a simple meal?”
“Yes, but it’s hard.”
What the DWP hears: you can do it. That usually means no points for this activity.
“I can’t use the hob safely. I’ve burned myself twice this year when my hands gave way, so I use the microwave for almost everything.”
Safety, how often, and what happens: the reliability test the decision has to apply.
Where are you with your PIP?
Your next step: a mandatory reconsideration.
The preview shows your deadline and how we’d argue your hardest activity. If you go ahead, the PIP reconsideration letter is £49.
Your next step: a tribunal appeal.
The preview shows your appeal deadline and your hardest activity argued for the panel. If you go ahead, the PIP tribunal letter is £49.
Either way, the free preview is the right first step.
Six pages. All about your case.
This is what lands in your inbox. Free.

- Your hardest activity, argued in full — the descriptor we would argue for, why it fits, the reliability test, what the decision missed and what to be ready to say.
- All twelve activities checked — which ones are worth looking at, and the errors in your decision we would challenge first.
- What your full letter would add — a clear list of what we’d do with your documents, if you decide to go ahead.

Built from your documents
Long COVID & Chronic Fatigue
“DWP conceded two weeks after my submission was filed. Never even had to go to the hearing. Enhanced rate on both components — I had no idea the written submission could do that.”
Fibromyalgia & Depression
“After two failed MRs writing my own letters, I used PIPAppeal for my tribunal. The submission was completely different in tone and structure. Won on the day. Got 18 months of backpay.”
Bipolar Disorder & Mobility Issues
“I was terrified about going. But the submission had laid everything out so clearly that when the panel asked questions, I just had to confirm what was already written. It felt like they were on my side.”
