  1. No you have until feb 2016
  2. Yes they do that at most jobcentres i was asked to apply for 14 a week
  3. Claimants Completing Work Programme before April 2014 totally left in the dark and regime varies in different areas even down to different jobcentres within an area lol
  4. Its based on your local authority alphabetically then jobcentres within the authority
  5. How come my local authority is not listed in any list? My authority is Wirral ?
  6. Its not companies keeping hold of job applications or not that bothers me it would be having my jobsearch digitally sent to another dwp worker to check without me being present that would really be alarming
  7. Im worried about when signing goes digital and a different office checks your jobsearch without me being present - i dnt trust them at all
  8. I just right the job title down n ref num if the job doesnt automaticaly let me send an email of my cv when i click apply an takes me to another site that i dnt hav my cv saved on im stumpd coz im useless at this pasting buisness
  9. Its somthing to do with my skills matching or somthin im not that good with computers
  10. Since october but from then till christmas i was only expected to bring evidence of jobsearch in- and i also found out its not just the one woman advisor i kept seeing being awkward to me as the new advisor from a larger jcp new i was attending the jobcentre weekly coz it must be written on the computer as she appeard to read it as she was sayin to bring in my ujm login details the weeks i dnt sign on - but i remember reading in the guidlines ages ago bout people who didnt go on help to work schem coz they finished the work program earlier could be reviewed after a minimum of 26 weeks of post work program support so im thinking it is to do with that
  11. My advisor also wants to check if my UJ is set up properly too ?
  12. ive also been told to bring in my UJ login every other week that i dnt sign on as im doing weekly signing still - ive been given a new adviser who has come from another larger branch in my district shes worked for the jcp for a lot longer than the staff at my local jcp and she said shes going to put me on one of the jcp computers every other week for an hour of assisted jobsearch ???
  13. Yes it was the jc who pushed me into the interview coz i had done tele sales before even tho i said i didnt want any job to do with meeting stressful sales targets as i had lost my job i had before when they moved from being in the showroom as it had gone quiet after the credit crunch to do tele sales cold calling where i didnt Meet any of the targets after a year or so they let me go - i had worked in the showroom before that for nearly 5 years and did really well
  14. The interview went ok anyway i didnt get a job coz it was for high end tele sales with a lot of pressure to meet targets and i pointed out that the old glazing company i workd for i had workd in the show room for 5 years then coz of the credit crunch i was moved to cold calling due to lack of ppl entering the showroom and i struggled with the pressure an was eventually made redundant so the employer said he didnt think the job was for me -and best thing was no jobcentre staff were on that floor as it was 12.20 they were all at lunch appart frm 2 security staff
  15. Yes that was what i was worried about - jobcentre staff askin for the ins an out of my interview an if they didnt like what they heard sanctioning me or making me go on pointless "confindence booster" courses
  16. Anybody ever had an interview with an employer at a jobcentre before? Do the jobcentre staff try to get involved or have any input at all or do they just leave u and the employer to it? Any info would be much appreciated thanks
  17. Even if you fill in a sick form they will just send you back to mwa when your 14 days is up
  18. Yes they will refund you your travel costs - so does that mean you have to visit the jobcentre every day now? It may have been better just going onto the mwa coz in a few months they will probably put you on it anyway
  19. I did read some guidelines and it saying those who finished the WP before April would stay on pwps but after 6 months your advisor can review that as can the jobcentre plus branch manager and they can decide if they want to change things so that must be what that ment when she said at my stage of claim im expected to attened weekley - the guidelines just say they are to discuss it with me which i guess what she said could count as that ?
  20. No i was told by my advisor a fortnight ago that he had messae on the computer flag up that he had to make an appointment for me to see him then he wrote it on a little green jcp appointment card an stapled it to my white Book then i had my appointment last week an he just said it was to spend more time with me to see how im getting on than just the usual 5 mins on signing day - hes a nice advisor hes on first name terms with me an he seems more friendly-i think its to do with him having a hearing disability and that i used to always make him feel relaxed when he first started there i was one of the first people he saw an let him take his time signin me on -anyway then i had my appointment last week which still lasted 5 mins with him anyway then when i signed on this week he wasnt in so i saw a woman an she said i was too early to see her an i said i sign on at 9.30 then she said the time changes each time now an she had a look and said yes your advisor ian has booked you in at 9.30 the first time i came back from post work programme at the large jcp in town coz then they let people go to the small local jcp offices go bk to our local offices for pwps - an she shown me he had wrote my signing times at the back of my book which were like 9.30 ,, 9.40 . 9.15 so i had been goin in for like 9.20 thinkin they were all the same an he hadnt said anything coz i was always there around the right time but this week he had booked me to sign at 10.20 for some reason so she kicked off when i came in nearly an hour early - so maybe she was just sayin i had to come every week to be awkward and booked me an extra appointment for next week maybe it is just a one off thing like my advisor made out it to be but then she got her knicks in a twist coz she was havin to see all his people aswel as her own with him being off work and then i roll in an hour early an push her over the edge
  21. Yea she told me to bring in my ticket and they pay travel costs for the week i dnt usually sign on - also they no longer give a fixed signing on time now - everytime i go in they book me a time for the next signing on date so its the same day but not the same time every fortnight
  22. Also while i was there i heard the staff asking each other if for example "joe Bloggs turned up for his intervention" - god knows what these interventions meen?
  23. No i mean weekley appointments but they did make me sign the same document that u sign when you go to your usual fortnightly signing to prove that i did turn up - they had booked me an appointment that i had last week on my non signing week which it was told was one of the case load appointments and wouldnt happen again for a while but the advisor i saw when i signed yesterday said that appointment was an "Intervention Meeting" and people who are at the stage where i am at are now required to attend weekley
  24. If anybody has any info it would much appreciated thanks
