!!!!!!! You havent signed on since they started notifying people about it, so obviously they will tell you next time you sign on!0 -
Then the "customer" who is sanctioned will take to sanctioning the advisor who stopped their benefits with their whatever part of their body they decide to use.
Today whilst i was at the jobcentre signing someone was escorted out of the building for hitting something. I didnt see who or what they hit.
Stopping peoples benefits ISN'T the way to get people back into work, creating jobs those people can do is, but this current government doesnt think that way.
Everytime i turn on the news all i hear is this company is closing, comets is going into admin, some bank are cutting 10,000 jobs yet only have 6,000 people in the UK, and some other company is cutting its work force. Yet according to Camemoron he is given tax breaks to new companies bringing their business to the UK. problem is this companies are bring in their OWN staff to fill the jobs they are creating.
But if camermoron wants the crime rate to rise especially attacks on jobcentre staff, more people on the sick due to ill health brought on by stress /worrying about how they are going to buy the food for the week, pay rent, gas, electric, water, clothing, and family, then his certainly going the RIGHT way about it.
And yes I have been sanction for upto 7months before now, i've been sanctioned about 30times in the past 20years, 9 of those sanction for 3 of the same reasons.
1 reason 3 sanctions applied 1 month after the innital sanction.
aka get sanctioned for 1 reason, wait 1 month and get another 2 sanctions for the same date, same reason, not a new sanction for something else, making a total of 7months.
Hell i even thru my signing book at them and didnt sign on for those 7 months only for them to try and sanction me for 6months again after i re-signed on 7months 1day later, "as i didnt do the 6month sanction" as the advisor put it. yet i still went 7months without any benefits. As i've always said Jobcentre Advisor LIKE STOPPING PEOPLES BENEFITS. and now thanks to the tories given them more power the ability to stop it for upto 3 years, I'm just waiting for the news to say Jobcentre staff member killed by jobseeker for having their benefits stopped for 3 years or 1year.
This has to be the most ridiculous post I have ever read!! You need to ask yourself why you keep getting sanctioned.
Plus attacking people who are only doing there job.....really!!0 -

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:
Ah the electric chair - be better off if I went that way to be honest.0 -

I'm sure many people would agree with you there!!:T0 -

Apparently according to csmw they can't see your activity on UJM, if you haven't given DWP permission to access.0 -
