Are you allowed to record.?

charlotte84

Good morning everyone, I’ve been wondering as I’ve heard and read lots of different stories regarding reports from the pip assessors are we allowed to record them with there consent? I no they record our calls.. My reason for this is I no they like to say things which sometimes aren’t true. For instance they might say someone didn’t seem to sound anxious or depressed on the phone when really they were crying there eyes out so upset and full of anxiety. I want to record my call with them so they can’t make out I was something I wasn’t if you understand me sorry I’m not good with words at all. Hope someone can help
thanks x

Hi there 

No you are not allowed to record calls without prior permission 

The assessor does not record the call either 

If you  do so you can only use it for your own purpose to recall what was said and not as any type of evidence
