Changing dates

There have been several discussions elsewhere about a so-called regulation saying you can only make one change to date,etc. when arranging an appointment.  Someone pointed out that this is not true.  If anyone has a problem, can I suggest you contact your MP immediately.  Most MPs seem to have appointed one of their staff to deal particularly with this type of problem, and when I phoned up they were incredibly helpful and dealt with problem efficiently and got an apology for me too!

    It is widely accepted that you can only change an assessment date once and I haven't seen any evidence to suggest otherwise, it also has to be said that most MP's have only one member of staff to deal with everything, and some are better than others.
    Be extra nice to new members.
