I answered your question and suggested how you might overcome your problem. Have you not heard the phrase thank you?

They do need consent to contact the employer and its the consent form but if someone else says different go with what they say.

^ This is why if you really don't want WP to gain from your employment you don't tell them or the JC any employer details. Just sign off, you don't have to give a reason.

too late now, they asked for the details before they were willing to help me with my travel costs, once they got the details the "help" turned into a loan of one weeks travel costs, when I need 4 :mad:

Yes you don't have to tell the JC where you are going to work

Go to the jobcentre and see if they are offering workwise in your area, it's 8 weeks worth of public transport costs ie bus/train/ metro. It's not funded through the jobcentre but by the travel companies so usually wp customers are still eligible.

thanks but I don't live in the areas covered by this scheme, the info I have found on workwise seems to only be available in Birmingham, Coventry, Solihull and Wolverhampton.

Sorry about that maybe worth seeing if there is something similar where you live. Otherwise simply say to the wp if they can't help you then you'll be unable to start so they won't get paid... it's in there best interest to help
