    Hi,

    I'm sorry to hear this. Sometimes they do go over with assessments because each persons case is different and there maybe more questions to ask some than others. This also happened to me once and it's very frustrating.

    Hopefully your next assessment will go ahead as planned and hopefully you're not waiting too long.

    I'm so sorry to read this @misstracey, that must have been really upsetting. If you'd already arranged a separate room to wait in, it does seem very unfair they weren't able to offer this on the day! 

    Like Poppy, I hope you get your new assessment through quickly and it runs more smoothly.
