Need to find out about some UC deductions, client authorised me to speak via usual method on her UC journal. Will DWP debt management be able to see this though? Cheers

They should but Debt Management are notoriously bad - I have a client who has had 5 letters regarding an overpayment each with a completely different amount!

Sounds about right!

Cheers, I didn’t want to wait on hold for an hour only to be told I had to post in a form of authority as they couldn’t access the client’s journal to see the third party auth!
