Lease extended whilst PIP claim is processed But.....

.........what happens if PIP not decided before my extension date?

My lease expired end May 2016 - but extended till November.

What happens if PIP claim not decided by this time frame - do they extend again or remove car from me ?

Don't worry, Motability Operations will continue to extend the car until you get a decision. if you have any concerns, please call Motability customer services on 0300 456 4566

It makes a lot of sense to extend your Motability lease-hire while the PIP claim is processed. Even if you get a positive result you should be able to continue the extended lease up to 5 years if it meets your access needs.

And in addition in the event that your PIP application is declined and you are unsuccessful at appeal, Motability Operations will make a transition support payment to you of £2000 if you joined the Scheme before December 2012. I believe they will also support the cost of hand control etc if you need them on a replacement car. So all in all it's definitely worth hanging on to your Motability Car until a decision is reached!
