Username_removed said:Ditto a telephone hearing. It bears no resemblance to a court hearing. It's a chat. Often a long chat but treat it as a chat and you'll be fine. Best advice is to not use it as an opportunity to "have your say" but rather to answer the questions as they come up.
It may be your opinion that 6 points is not correct but at this point that's for the tribunal to decide. Some WRAs take appeal cases simply because they have been asked i.e. without assessing the merits but based on the not unreasonable idea that everyone deserves representation. Others, assess a case and pursue it to appeal because it is winnable (albeit with no guarantee it will win). You need to talk to your WRA and understand which they are and what your case is. There is absolutely no better way to lower anxiety in these circumstances than learning something new and understanding your own case.
As I said earlier, forget this forum for this. You have an adviser. Go quiz them. -
@Username_removed
You need to mind the tone of your replies as not to be misconstrued as bullying. It is wrong for you to say someone is writing a mess just because you disagree with them.
FYI, the words "inquisitorial" and "adversarial" are interchangeable. Yes, the Tribunal would have to ask you lots of questions to take evidence but your opponent (DWP) can also produce evidence to prove you wrong or the Tribunal may choose not to believe you perticularly when your credibility is in doubt. Besides, if you don't oppose what the DWP is saying about you, it will be taken as you accept it. My point is: The Tribunal is not as "informal" as it is cracked up to be.

(Note, I apologise if any of this post appears to be missing or incorrectly formatted. I have just seen that part of the comment is missing when viewing it on the community, whereas it appears normal in the text box.)
While disagreement is natural when it comes to a subject like this, I'd like to remind everyone to ensure that is done in a respectful way towards each other, and in a tone that maintains a constructive discussion for everyone involved, most of all the OP.
I'm sure that Mike didn't intend his comment to come across as bullying @Peter99, and in fact he clarified that it was just his opinion. But I acknowledge that comments such as "Which may explain the mess you keep posting about on here. Oh dear" do not represent the kind of remarks conducive to a supportive and welcoming environment, so I'd just like to remind you @Username_removed to ensure that you consider how your tone may come across through an online forum.

Can I just say as a member, I wouldn’t have said that @Username_removed post came across as bullying, more as pointing out that a poster had given wrong information. Mike gives the best advice on here, as he has years of experience and clearly knows what he is talking about. I’m sure I speak for others when I say that we would hate to lose Mike on here.My opinion of course.

Thanks @Leigh14

I agree with @Leigh14 - I had a long comment typed out this morning commenting, amongst other things, on the value of "objecting to everything DWP says" (as advised by @Peter99).
I've chosen to not comment on the other issues, but I still think it is important to note it may be unwise to make statements like that as some members have Autism-related conditions which means they will take this advice literally and could potentially argue even when DWP concede a point!
On a personal level, I have found @Username_removed ' s advise excellent if a bit "too the point" at times - but do we have to acknowledge Mike brings a wealth of experience and he does this free of charge, often into the wee small hours!! :-D -
