I have moved your post to it's own topic.

Please don't post your questions in other member's topics, it makes it impossible to provide you with support, especially when you questions bear no relation to what is being discussed in the original topic.

To answer your question. The rate of revision at the MR stage is quite low but it does happen, most usually because the claimant is able to show that there was a fundamental error in the original Decision.

The DWP can reduce or remove an existing award when carrying out an MR.

A Tribunal can do the same but the are required to notify the claimant if this is a possibility so that they can withdraw their appeal.
