    @rainbow58I have been where you are now. However until things change and the assessment companies are got rid of IAS will not accept any wrong doing. I got a letter very like the one sent to you but persevered and wrote back focussing my complaint on the written assessment report. 5 months later I got a 6 page letter from IAS rejecting my complaint. However this enabled me to transfer the complaint to ICE who are the Independent Complaints Examiner. You have to go through the IAS complaint's procedure before you can do this. You could try contacting ICE now, the number is on the Gov.uk website and see if they'll accept your complaint but they may want you to go back to IAS to make them do a full investigation. I have to warn you that ICE are snowed under with cases and it would take over a year to have your case looked at. So I'm not telling you what to do just giving you more info. so you can decide for yourself. There's no point in complaining to DWP at this stage as the complaint is about IAS.
           In the meantime concentrate on your claim. Don't make a big issue of your feeling to DWP just go through the process giving them the evidence and facts they need to review your claim. But do tell them you've complained. Hope that helps.
