But you still have nowhere to check how the entitlements are worked out. You can provide all the correct information, check they have it correct, but with no information on how the calculation is done, you have no way of checking whether you receive the correct credits.

No, I see your point, but what I am saying is the OP can appeal if the information (ie her oh's wages) on the award is correct.

If it is written incorrectly then it is up to the claimant to point it out and, as such, the chance of a successful appeal is minimal.

The amounts can be checked via entitledto and the tax credit calculator if people are worried they are way out, but essentially, if the information suplied is correct and written on the award correctly, then it would be a calculation error and, in that case, the overpayment would very likely be written off.
