Hi I just reviewed a email from tribunal to say they have made a decision and will be in the post 2nd September. I only had my tribunal on the 23rd Aug. Is this normal for such a quick response or does it mean its not good news as its Bern really worrying me.

    Hello @oceanblue68 and thanks for reaching out, I know it's a bit of worry when the result is still uncertain, but if you can, try to focus on things you enjoy, and which help pass the time between now and the 2nd September. 

    I'm afraid there's no way to judge what the result will be based on the speed of response, but whatever happens, the community is here to support you :)

    How do you feel the Tribunal went on the day?

    Hi
     I have already messaged scope regarding how it went. I feel it didn't go to well as I had trouble explaining myself properly.

    The tribunal usually make the decision the same day as the hearing. When hearings were face to face the decision was usually given to the claimant before leaving the hearing venue.
    Information I post is for England unless otherwise stated. Rules may be different in other parts of UK.
