So today I had an unexpected phone call off an assessor asking me if I need someone for support when I have my phone call assessment I said yes and that was it. Have anyone else had a similar call. Thankyou

    Hi there and welcome 

    Not heard this before but I'm sure it won't be anything to worry about 

    They may have had a cancellation wanting to do your assessment without much notice but if you need support that wouldn't be possible 

    This is only a guess tho
