I spoke over the phone it took 2 3minutes roughly requesting mandatory reconsideration
But today got a letter that it doesn't relate to any activity within work no new information supplied but still the first decision some of the comments are wrong they have statementsome from my doctor that I am unfit to work health care professional has a different role from a GP

Welcome to the forum, you might want to have a look at the following FAQ which explain where everything is
Welcome to Benefits and Work
The ESA Appeal guide has links to the SSCS1 form that you will need to complete and the Submissions guide has a complete example that you can use to help you fill it in, you do not need to provide detailed reasons at this stage for your request.
www.benefitsandwork.co.uk/help-for-claimants/esa1
Once your appeal is accepted the DWP will prepare their submission to the hearing and send you a copy, whilst you should wait until you receive this to finish and submit your own, you should start to prepare your own case, an increased award will only be made by your showing that you score the extra points for one, so I would start by going back through your PIP2, the assessment report and the PIP Claim guide to see how you might show this is the case.
ESA has very specific criteria that the claimant has to meet for an award, your post and the response from the Decision Maker suggests that although you have explained your problems, what you have included does not relate to this criteria and this is why your claim has been unsuccessful.
I would start by going through our ESA Claim guides to understand what you are being tested against , compare this to your answers on the ESA50 you complete to see whether you have explained yourself correctly.
If you have further questions then please reply to this post and we will do our best to help.
