    Hey SeanPaul,

    I had the same trouble with my Mum when her decision was made. I happened to call up on the day the decision was made and the letter had been sent out, and was told that in basic terms it takes 24 hours to update on their system once the letter has been posted and they can't actually access a digital copy of the letter for a day (no idea why!).

    I called the next day and they told us what my Mum had been awarded smile did you happen to ask when the letter had been send out?

      Well that is bizarre!! I can't imagine why they wouldn't tell you even if you had been awarded or not - when I called they could tell me my Mum had been awarded but just not how much until their systems had updated in 24 hours.

      Having said that, I've also had experience where certain call operators will do things that others won't, it's like some of them adhere to their own rules you know? It may be worth calling to get a different operator, and simply state you are confused as to why you aren't being told anything smile

    The same thing happened to me, but it was because the computer had not been updated.  I first rang on the Friday, which was the day I received my letter and had to ring again on the monday, they told me then.
