It will show your username? Erm no - where is the site you are registering on? What is the link to it? There is nothing at all on http / jobseekers.direct.gov.uk to allow you to pre register.

I am going to guess here? http: // www. gateway.gov.uk/ I have a piece of paper from the Jobcentre telling me I can per-register here before the 19th. I will upload some photos very shortly. Sorry can't link yet properly, please remove the spaces. Page will not load without the www. ... probably a Windows web server.

That was my 10th post, can post links now? http://www.gateway.gov.uk/

Hope this clears a few things up. I am still very keen to find out if this is actually required yet. I think I might go and get a photo of what is in the job folder at the jobcentre as well next time I am in. These 3 sheets are the handout they gave me on my signing day when they told me to sign up.

that links only says

Register as an ‘Individual’ for services for personal use such as view Council Tax, Self Assessment Online, Carers Allowance and Tax Credits Online

Nothing about job searching

In fact if you go here

https://myaccount.gateway.gov.uk/Pages/Common/HelpPopup.aspx?content=Whitelabel_RegisterOrLogon_HowToRegister|Whitelabel_RegisterOrLogon_RegisterWithCert|Whitelabel_WhatServicesAvailable|Whitelabel_RegisterOrLogon_IsItSecure&lang=en-GB#Whitelabel_WhatServicesAvailable

and then look halfway down it says

Employer Direct Online service information (external link)


when you click on it, its a OLD link that has not worked for years so I am not sure this is the link at all as on http://jobseekers.direct.gov.uk it says the Universal Job Search will be on the same link

Oh I see, I hadn't got that far, because I didn't want to attempt starting the registration process yet. Thanks for showing me. They told me at the Jobcentre you could do it right away. It looks like this is going to be messy.

Yes but where? It's not active yet and if this is the link they gave you then heaven help us.

What were the photos you posted then as they never showed up on here?
