    Hi there @jacla_7172 and welcome to the community.

    That sounds like a tricky situation, I'm sorry. The DWP wont be able to check your Whatsapp messages, but if she's agreed not to contact you as a goodwill gesture, it wouldn't look great if she was to go back on her word. That's just a personal opinion of course.

    Unfortunately as I don't know the details of the situation or what was agreed, I'd be unable to say what is and isn't allowed, it would be best if she spoke to the DWP investigators.
