Hi and 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
You don't say who you are trying to contact. Is it DWP or one of the assessment providers? The assessment providers (ATOS, Capita, Maximus) are contactable by email but not DWP.
If you are trying to contact DWP, all I can suggest is that you try them at 8am as they are often quieter then. Other members might have suggestions from their own experience.
As an aside, your MP might like to hear of the trouble you are having. They might be able to speed things up for you if all else fails but I would hope you manage to sort something out before that.
If you have further questions please reply to this message and we will do our best to help. You will find it easily in future if you bookmark/favourite it on your web browser now |
