Christmas sign on dates

Hi guys . I've just been to sign on today and that went well. I was given the date of the 13th jan to return to sign on. I was placed on weekly signing so I asked about that and my advisor said you don't need to come in next week. My jcp is closed on 24th 25th and 26th. I would have thought I would have to sign on the 30th but no I dont.

Does anyone know why I don't need to sign on the 30th as they will be open anyways.

    Aren't you glad of getting sometime away from the JCP and signing on.

    Just be grateful. Am sure you would probably be here complaining that you do need to sign on that day if they said so. You just cant please people.

    Why dont you call DWP and ask them why you dont need to sign on.....

    You can't win on here. If I was like woohoo don't need to sign il be bashed to pieces by people who work more than 16 hours. I'm just wondering and wondered f any of you have the answer.

    I wouldn't be complaining if I had to.

  • Signing is suspended from 22nd Dec right through to 2nd Jan. DWP can the allow more staff have leave. If you are weekly signing I would think you have to sign on 6th Jan. Did they give you something in writing? If not double check.
