  • If people spend at much time looking for work as do trying to find ways to argue with the WP/DWP the unemployment rate would be 0.

    Would it?

    Official figures...roughly 0.5 million jobs available (most not full time) and 2.5 million unemployed (the reality is much worse).

    Idiot! :rotfl:

    The WP tell you what to do and that is what you should do. They wouldnt lie about anything.
    is that why they have signs up stopping people recording what is discussed? because they wont lie and have nothing to hide.

    'proof' gathered while you should be looking for a job
    NO PROOF I HAD TO SUPPLY TO THE DWP TO STOP A SANCTION ON ME BY THE LYING WP!

    ie a letter with the dates of the appointments that I attended and the WP telling the DWP I didn't attend!

    I dont need an economics A level to see how much time is spent on here when should be spent out looking for work

    My 'adviser' there couldn't even be bothered to use the phones to ask his colleague a basic question after he virtually accused me of lying so it's stuff like that an many other reasons why people can ask stuff on sites like this
    Plus haven't you heard of multi-tasking? Having a life?

    A good way of them not sanctioning you would be to do as your told, and of course, controversial as it may seem..........get a job.

    What is your problem? People have proof of what happened whilst they did look for work so why are you so anti?

    OMG you are an idiot

    I did do what they told me and turned up for the appointments as per the letter they gave me.

    They then told the DWP I had appointments on OTHER DATES and then when challenged and shown the letter THEY GAVE ME they said oops sorry we made a mistake!

    People are trying to get jobs but the WP 'providers' are not always correct
    Plus there was the report that the people are standing a better chance of finding work without the WP
