Hello,  I have had an arranged call from a DWP Conpliance officer. I was given a short interview over the phone. I was made aware that, someone had ,reported me as working & having excessive savings. This isn't the case, I have a carer,  & in poor health. I realise they have to do checks, but this is the 2nd time now. Can any member, advise, on how I would go about, making a complaint relating to the informant ?. I now know who the informent is, but want to use discretion.......

    Hi @Bigtoe12 and welcome

    I doubt that there is much you can do, there will always be petty jealous types who just have to poke their nose into anyones business. Try not to let it get to you, you know the truth but DWP do have to follow up on these things. Life is hard enough without these busybodies
