Phone number ☎️ 08002888777 👆 is reported as a number linked to health assessments for DWP claimants, mainly for UC and ESA work capability reviews. It’s used by outsourced assessors like CHDA UK or Atos Healthcare, who arrange medical appointments regarding benefits. Callers often report poor communication, delayed identification, and aggressive tactics threatening to stop benefits if appointments are missed or contact isn’t made promptly. Some mention receiving calls despite filing for phone exemptions or needing home visits, causing frustration over lack of proper record checks. A few warn of potential data mishandling and highlight confusion due to calls being made to outdated or incorrect addresses. Others suspect scams or misidentification, noting unanswered voicemails and repeated calls at odd hours. Overall, it’s tied firmly to government-related benefit assessments but with mixed experiences.
Reports on phone number 08002888777
3 yearsThe people doing the health assessments for DWP are from CHDA. Their phone number is usually printed on the letter you get about your ESA or UC claim. Before this call, you should have already received a letter telling you when and where your appointment will be.CHDADWPUCESA3 yearsI got a call from this number and it turned out to be the CHDAUK helpline. They're the third-party assessors who speak to people claiming UC and ESA to check their work capability.Universal Credit and EmploymentAllowance3 yearsI haven't a clue who this person is, but it's definitely a bit dodgy.5 yearsIm pretty sure that number belongs to one of the dwo's departments.DWO6 yearsGot a call from 0800888777, reckon it's the DWP. They left a voicemail.DWP7 yearsI seen this number pop up few times, it says it’s from the DWP Disability Assessment Centre but when I tried ringing back, all the lines were tied up with no one to talk to.10 yearsA strange set of calls has been coming through to our folks’ old number, even though we haven’t resided there for a good five years now! The callers, claiming to be from the DWP, were prattling on about some benefits matter (which is odd since I’m not receiving any, mind you) and urged us to ring them back with my National Insurance number. So, I did return the call, only to find out it concerns a Health Club. Just ignore it, I say! Utterly fishy! When I looked up the number online, all I found was this site! Seems like they're trying to lure you into a premium rate call when you pause to chat with someone, and it seems like they’re doing their utmost to make you do just that. No thank you very much!DWPNational InsuranceHealth Club10 yearsI just received a call from 0121 779 8700, but they hung up before I could say anything. It’s not the best way to go about things, is it? Are you certain this number is linked to the DWP? I only heard back from them last week after our accident, and now I'm dealing with life in a wheelchair.DWP10 yearsI discovered that this was ATOL Healthcare. Their location is Tresco House, 65 Lisson Grove, Marylebone, London, NW1. When we called them back, they promptly confirmed our appointment for April. Out of curiosity, we looked up the address online, and it turns out it's actually a DWP office!ATOL HealthcareTresco HouseLisson GroveMaryleboneLondonNW1DWP10 yearsReceived a call intended for our son. I let them know that she doesn't reside at this address, yet they insisted on her calling this number as it was supposedly the Department for Work and Pensions. The moment she dialled it, she was greeted by a voicemail for a gym instead. Quite the mix-up!Department for Work and Pensions10 yearsJust a quick note, we recently looked up our 1471 service and discovered that the number that contacted us was: 0121 7798700.10 yearsThis telephone number belonged to the central office of Tyco Healthcare, who were responsible for evaluating the health status of individuals claiming incapacity for work or disability benefits on behalf of the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP). Their approach to communication left much to be desired; they often failed to clearly identify themselves until at least the third or fourth call. Moreover, they have a rather alarming habit of issuing threats to suspend your benefits if you don't respond to them within a fortnight. If you neglect to get in touch, they simply arrange an appointment without your consent, and if you don't show up, they proceed to terminate your benefits entirely.Tyco HealthcareDepartment for Work and PensionsDWP10 yearsReceived a repetitive ringing on my phone around 8 in the evening several times. Quite peculiar, really.11 yearsJust like Matt, I reckon these folks rang an unlisted number of mine. Seems to me they're chasing debts or something similar.Matt11 yearsWhat really annoyed us was that our file clearly states that we're unable to use the phone and require home visits (as certified by a doctor), yet they continue sending out the usual letters as if everyone can just pick up the phone and call. Do these folks actually bother to read the information or is that too much of an ask for those employed by the DWP? It’s honestly baffling!DWP11 yearsI can assure you that this call was legitimate. The ring in question was linked to Atos Healthcare (not to be confused with Atol, as mentioned previously). These individuals operate on behalf of the Department for Work and Pensions, coordinating medical assessments for those claiming incapacity benefits. Ignoring their communications might result in the suspension of your benefits. If you're looking for more details, their official office is located at: Four Triton Square, Regents Place, London, NW1 3HG.Atos HealthcareAtolDepartment for Work and PensionsFour Triton SquareRegents PlaceLondon3HG11 yearsWe've had a call from this number before as well. Unfortunately, we didn’t jot it down and asked about a different person. The person we needed wasn’t available, but it seems to be related to pensions or some sort of benefits inquiry-something along those lines.12 yearsThis number belongs to the switchboard of Tyco Healthcare, which is responsible for conducting health assessments for individuals claiming incapacity for work or disability benefits on behalf of the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP). The way they reach out is quite poor; they withhold their identity until the third or fourth call. They then proceed to threaten that your benefits could be at risk if you fail to get back to them within a fortnight. If you don't respond, they may even schedule an appointment without your consent, and should you miss it, they are quick to terminate your benefits. It’s rather concerning, to say the least.Tyco HealthcareDepartment for Work and PensionsDWP12 yearsShe's been receiving support from the Department for Work and Pensions due to her ongoing health issues.Department for Work and Pensions12 yearsJust a quick note to bear in mind: ATOS has had a mishap with some data loss. There was this report in the Financial Times about a memory stick that went missing, and it apparently belonged to a staff member at Atos Origin. They're the ones running the government’s online Gateway, which is a platform for people to sign up for various public services such as tax and benefit claims. It’s probably wise to exercise a good deal of caution regarding this matter.ATOSFinancial TimesAtos Origin12 yearsIt’s worth noting that, according to DWP protocol, they should be the ones to reach out to individuals initially. This way, those concerned can arrange appointments together, rather than receiving a letter that could potentially catch someone off guard about the appointment. After all, telephone numbers are provided on the claims form you submit, so there’s a clear line of communication established.12 yearsWhat truly baffles us is the information on our records clearly states that we’re unable to use the phone and require home visits (with medical documentation to back it up), yet they continue to send out these generic letters as if everyone is capable of making calls. Do the individuals at the DWP even take the time to go through our details, or is that simply too taxing for them? It’s quite infuriating, really!DWPSubmit Your Own Report (0800 288 8777)
