random telephone call was created by reds123
hi mods, i received a telephone call today from dwp 0800 number they left a message to say they were from dwp so my wife tried to call them back on the same number but got message saying we tried to contact you today but were unable to make contact, you do not need to call us we will be in touch again if we need to. i sent my pip renewal back to them in november and had telephone assessment 3 weeks ago do you think this call was in relation to pip or is that unlikely after only 3 weeks. has anyone else reported similar calls.. many thanks bb

Hi british bulldog,
I know these are strange times, but I have yet to discover that they are so strange that the DWP is ringing up for no reason. I am sure if they do need to communicate with you they will either ring again or write, but if I was in your position I would not be able to resist ringing them on their normal number and telling them your story. I have recently heard of people being rung up with the outcome of PIP assessments, so that is possible.
Hoping it is good news for you
