PIP mobility mental health change Nov 2016

I had an appeal first tier tribunal back in July 2016 for my mental health. I qualified for mobility lower rate DLA but not PIP. The law changed in Nov 2016. From this time I qualified for standard mobility. It seems that because I had an appeal beforehand , am not entitled to the back payment promised.
Anybody else in the same position?
Any suggestions?

Hi Jean

Welcome to the forum, you might want to have a look at the following FAQ which explains where everything is.

Welcome to Benefits and Work

The MH ruling took effect from 28 November 2016.

Claimants who have had a tribunal decision that would have considered the judgment. These cases will not be reviewed.
