Phoning DWP too much?

Hi all,

I wanted everyone's opinions on how often you think phoning the DWP after assessment is acceptable/sensible.

I myself constantly tell myself not to phone but tend to give in and ring for more of the same answer "No decision"

I am hit with both sides of the stick as I am in Northern Ireland, we cannot request a copy of the assessor's report until the decision has been sent out.

    I left it four weeks after my f2f to request the report. Got told while on the phone they had made their decision. 
    Two weeks after this the letter arrived. 
    I probably would have waited until the end of that month. 
    No news is good news in some cases.

    Hi everybody, once a week is often enough but if they promised to send a report uk only at present, and nothing arrives then you will have to ask to go to the next level and try to get the answer your seeking.
