hi can someone please advise? My son has a pip review telephone assessment in 2 weeks time.I rang the pip telephone number to ask if he could have a face to face appointment as it would be easier due to his austium etc,the gentleman on the phone said they are not doing face to face due to covid issues I said ok my son will struggle he said looking at the system I see dad is his appointee he can do the assessment I questioned it again but he said the same thing . He stated a lot has changed with the process so don’t worry. Any thoughts or has anyone had the same response please? Many thanks xx
