Hi there
Most cases you are notified of your assessment by letter but sometimes they do text but as you haven't given your mobile number they cant do that
On occasion if they hot a cancellation and you have said you would take a little notice assessment they may call however if you dont answer they will leave a message or call back0 -
Thanks janer1967 I would like a little notice to have paperwork and someone with me so I can be prepared , thanks again0

You do usually get notice and if offered cancellation at short notice you can refuse
You can also change your assessment appointment once if it isnt convenient1 -
Hope the above helps @joethebee
As mentioned, you do normally get notice so hopefully that will be the case for you. Best of luck with the review, let us know how you get on0
