    I think the OP is on a wind up.
  • I'm not interested in the OP's spelling skills. You have been extremely rude to him. You don't have to read this thread. Why not just move on and leave him well alone?

    AP007 has been more than helpful to the OP, and shown a great deal of tolerance when the OP has been deliberately obtuse. You seem to think anyone that is not all {{{hugs}}} is rude, when in fact the questions asked by AP007 et al have just been trying to get the facts of the situation.

    I would suggest it is you that needs to leave well alone - all you are doing is feeding a pretty blatant troll!

    Well, thankfully some of us are more tolerant and less judgemental than some of you have show yourselves to be here. You're all so courageous whilst typing on your keyboard and hiding behind a screen. There's a word for that - BULLYING! I wonder whether you'd be as rude and aggressive in person.

    Yes, I was suspicious last night, but the further posts this morning have convinced me it's a hoax. To those saying the OP is unintelligible, I say read more carefully-there is definite evidence of proper sentence construction(just no full stops!) and it's only the crude attempt at "mimicking" a Scottish accent that makes some of the posts difficult.
    If the OP is really after help, I don't think internet forums are the place to start.

    I have not been rude or aggressive, and nor have the other people you have accused as such. You are the one that is calling people names - perhaps you need to look at your own actions?

    Thats where I would disagree as I dont see the replies by Jacques or AP as being bullying, they have tried to ask what the sanction was for on numerous occaisons.

    The OP doesn't really know, as advice centres don't know, as DWP has only just started implementing a retrospective sanction after 6+ months of delay.

    The background to the sanction is serious enough to be at the Supreme Court.

    Maybe the DWP are bullying the OP - I don't see anyone here doing it

    Where is everyone else's advice on what to do now?

    My advice was dismissed, apparently the OP feels his lack of literacy skills are not important. I'd hate to see what his application forms are like :(

    Always assumed the letter would state the reason for a sanction.
