PIP assessor walked out!

Hi Dan

I would still go forward with your complaint to IAS. They are not always thrown in the bin. Indeed one member recently had their whole decision over-turned by IAS because of an inadequate assessor and assessment. I would ring them first, (if you're comfortable with doing that) and then I would follow it up with a letter. Then it's harder for them to ignore your complaint. You could complain to the DWP, but they will only refer you back to IAS, because the issue is with the assessor/assessment. You can use the online complaint form - it depends on how much you want to say. In my experience, the online forms often crash and there is no facility to save them.

I know you have spoken to every already but I would contact IAS for an update, have they returned your file without a report being produced or has a report been submitted.

Depending on the result of your first call contact the DWP, either to find out what they are doing if the file has no report, make it clear you expect to be able to provide your own account of what happened and if a report has been produced, to ask for a copy to be sent to your.
