    Then, obviously, they will tell you all about it the next time you sign on.
    Horray! Can't wait! :mad: Still haven't seen any leaflets about it though

    When did you see them?

    Yesterday when I signed on, they were on all the job points, there were also notices on the job points informing you what to do.

    LOL So how can someone see them who only signs, let me think one day every 14 days? You stated they are all over my job centre and I must have seen them! Deary me.

    Why did you not see them before yesterday?

    There are leaflets in your JC, you will no doubt say you havent seen them and know nothing of UJM, but the fact you are here moaning about it suggests you know all about it.

    Also, you claim you search the site all the time, well it tells you all about the changes on the first page you see.

    Pleading ignorance wont work.

    As I have said, you can claim ignorance, say what you like, argue all you like, if they dont buy it, you get no money.

    Have fun paying those bills!:rotfl:

    Oh how funny you are! When did you FIRST know about the new site? weeks ago?

    I got a leaflet this morning when i signed on and there was notices on all the job search machines.


    As it only went live yesterday, your JC will tell you i'm sure the next time you sign on :idea:

    I am not doubting they will but aparently I have seen the leaflets at the job centre already.

    As I am now on the work programme I do not know how that will work as I know you have to report your job seraches to the WP who are not on the dwp system so will not be able to check jobs.

    First time anyone spoke to me about it was yesterday. I saw the message on the website about a week ago or so, when it started appearing.

    I wasnt sure what it was all about so called them today and spoke to someone about it and got it all explained so I can now sit back and relax and not get stressed by reading all the scaremongering going on from people who dont understand it.

    As someone said to my post explaining what I had been told, it all seems reasonable. They wont snoop, they cant snoop if you deny them access, they just expect you to have registered so you can use all the features of the site, which they consider to be a minimum requirement.

    Maybe they/we do not understand it as wait for it, we do not know what it is an no one has spoken to us about it even though you think I have seen all the leaflets everywhere

    thanks

    Im on the WP also, it makes no difference. When you sign on you have to show you have been looking for work, they cant tell if you have used Jobsite or similar, but they can see if you have used their own site. If you cant prove you have been using it fully, you get the electric chair:eek:
