  • I was recently on JSA and I had forgotten a small detail. The person interviewing me said that it wouldn't be a problem as long as the system 'wasn't playing up' (whatever that meant). But as long as you declare it ASAP, you should be fine. I think problems begin once you start receiving the benefits still not having informed them.

    Perhaps a more polite tone might be appropriate in future to others who like to help and support? :rolleyes:

    Perhaps checking your facts before giving out incorrect information might be appropriate in future? Thank you please. :p

    (Has someone with 62 'Thanks' just tried to tell me what to do? :confused: :rotfl: )
    Gone ... or have I?

    He is nonetheless correct though. You did misquote him, and are being impolite!

    Well I didn't realise "Thanks" quotas were a measure of someone's expertise.....go you. Really can't believe you made such a ridiculously pathetic remark on a public forum but I guess it takes all sorts.

    As for your command of the English language, clearly you are lacking somewhat, so I will explain s.l.o.w.l.y. for you. I did not "give out" inaccurate information. I stated what I felt might be correct with the limited knowledge I confessed to having on the subject. This was backed up with a strong encouragement to seek further advise. If you can manage to misconstrue that as "giving incorrect information" then you are clearly as ignorant as the responses to me appear.

    I really don't think it is too much to ask for you to adhere to the forum etiquette over on the right >>>>>. If you have a response to this issue please send it to my pm inbox. :rolleyes:
