OR interview...is this normal

had a letter requesting a phone interview

it states it should be roughtly half an hour and is unlikely to

lead to a office interview....

is this standard wording?..or tailored for each person...

just didn't like the sound it could lead to an office interview

before i'd even started.

    I got the same wording and so did my husband, I'm not worrying about it :)

    Especially as my case has been handed to Hull OR, a zillion miles away from me

    Had mine FTF the same day 20mins or so after i'd been to court.....all pretty normal really preferred FTF myself as the OR could see how I was & gave me more time to reply to bits & bobs...NOTHING at all to worry about...IF the time ever came again (which I can assure IT WONT!!) i'd prefer FTF anytime

    Totally normal. Hubbie still answering a load of questions regarding his BR, but OR seems happy just to send letter with questions and we send back a huge load of info, last lot looked like War & Peace.

    So far OR been very nice & sure yours will be too - so dont worry :-)

    I had 2 hour 40 minute f2f interview a couple of weeks after my BR. Nothing exciting and the coffee was mediocre machine coffee. - nothing to write home about.
