Jubilee JSA payments

Hey guys,

I usually sign today (tuesday) but with the jubilee i need to figure out whether i am due to be paid wednesday or by the weekend.

I am concerned as i need money to pay bills and stuff.

Shorty :)

    I've just been to my job centre in Falkirk as no letter or info was given to me about this and the job centres is shut.

    I'm actually starting a new job on Monday so today would of been last time of signing, i hope i still receive my payment on Friday?

    Very concerned as i cant go through the weekend with no funds.
  • Today is a Bank Holiday so they wouldn't have been open. Go see them first thing tomorrow, they should let you sign on as you can't do it when it's closed, can you?

    I am planning on seeing them tomorrow but in Falkirk today the councils are still open, shops and businesses. I receiverd no letter or info on last time upon signing. I receive my JSA on a Friday so i'm thinking if i do sign tomorrow it will be received on Monday which is not good when you have 2 more days to get through with very little money.

    It's not the end of the world i know, but with the councils being open and other businesses i would of thought they would of been too.
