We have tel HAAS Appt scheduled for tomorrow pm ... feeling nervous
10 am today i got call from 0800 number. I missed it. Then i heard my son speaking to someone on the phone directly after the missed call. This is strange bec he isnt often awake at that time and he doesn't answer unknown numbers usually.
It turned out that HAAS called me and him. He answered. Call was :
-courtesy call to confirm and check that he would be ready for tel appt. I am his appointee so found that a strange question. i will be attending.
-they asked permission to record the call. I was surprised at that. Never been asked. always brushed off/ or request lost in comms
-they explained call maybe 30mins late. This is not surprising.
I've never had a pre appt courtesy call before. I cant imagine more resources avail to do this kinda scheduling logistics..... call me cynical but is this a tactic .. ie evidence re comms with clmt ?
Probably over thinking it right ?🤷🏽♀️

Sorry i had a momentary brain freeze n confusion - the HAAS call was for PIP not UC WCA process.
We still dont have a date for WCA assmt.
Do you think they will use one assmt for both processes ?

Hi Sum
No it won't be one assessment for both assuming it is done before 2031 and that would be after the next general election.
You will find information on this subject in the various BenefitsandWork News items as per below:-
