UC Overpayment MRN - is this really enough?
hardly
anydecision made by a public authority should enable the person to understand the decision
in this case, it should enable the person to know
1. why claiming UC resulted in an overpayment
2. what it is s/he is said to have been overpaid
3. in what amount
4. and for what period
and so on.
this doesn’t even say what it is was overpaid, let alone anything else
therefore, the claimant doesn’t have sufficient information to understand, and challenge if necessary, the decision.
clearly a trip to tribunal required
It’s unlawful, plain and simple. It’s derisory. It’s insulting.

Yes!!!!!! Exactly so.
I am very worrierd about the standards of communications from UC

you mean they have standards of communication? you could have fooled me….
Although I was glad to note that reg 51 UC (D&A) regs still requires the DM to give written notice of a right of appeal I am sad to note that it is not included in this notice.

To be fair to them I may have left that bit off as it was on an extra page.
The last one I saw from UC (a R2R case) said he had a right to appeal/ask for an MR but did not give any address to write to or suggest any other method of actually doing this…
