@twonker @yadnad - so what should they do then?
Any positive advice other than giving reasons why claims fail? (and having the obligatory pop at the assessor!) -

OK reasons why claims are awarded? Do exactly as Wilko says to which I agree.
And along the way just ignore those that through no fault of theirs make a hash of the claim in all ways including the assessment? They don't count because everybody should be able to follow the claiming procedure to the letter
Those who fail - what should they do? Appeal that's all that is left for them. Ignore the stress and anxiety that they have to suffer for 12+ months and lack of money. It's their own fault isn't it? They should have followed the claiming procedure to the letter and by doing so would not have had the stress and anxiety. Oh what a perfect world we all live in.
