Changing my jsa address??

. . . . So I have just been to the job centre to sign on today, And whilst I was there I enquired about changing my address as I have recently moved house - (Although I have only moved about half a Mile down the road, So I am still at the same job centre and everything). The woman I signed on with changed my address on their system and told me that I also have got to ring up the benefits place which for me is the Preston Benefit Delivery Centre and change it on their system.

The trouble is That I do not have any access to a landline telephone, Nor do I have any money for a pay phone, And I do not have any credit on my mobile to call the 0845 Number, And T-Mobile will not let me use my free minutes :cool:

Is there a free number that I can use? I am due to get my money now on Friday Night / Saturday Morning And I am just worried that If I do not hurry up and get this address changed then I will not get the money and then I will be unable to pay my rent this week. ??!!??!!!?

    :p Regular savers earn 6% interest (HSBC, First Direct, M&S) :p Loans cost 2.9% per year (Nationwide) = FREE money. :p

    Can I do that? I thought that the job centre phones were just for calling the Job seekers Direct Number? Silly Me! :o

    Use the phones in the jobcentre as HappyMj says -or borrow a phone and ask for a call back. They will oblige if you ask nicely :D

    Your payment will already be on its way to your bank so unless your address change has been flagged as a problem it wont affect your payment this time.
