So annoyed!
 

Stupid Job Centre, I'm so sick of them

I've been trying everything I can to get a job. I've sent so many application forms, letters, copies of my C.V. to countless people but haven't managed to get anywhere yet so I've been claiming Job Seekers Allowance. I have not missed an appointment, have signed every two weeks when I needed to and was never late.

Anyway. A few weeks ago they referred me to some other place which I wasn't too happy about but the woman there was lovely, much more helpful than the people at the Job Centre were. The lady I saw at this other place was sending me on some job search course thingy which, after I agreed to it, I realised I had something important going on the week I was meant to go. So I rang them up ASAP and let them know. Again, very understanding, she said she'd send a form to me and get me on to the next course.

So I filled in this form and took it to the Job Centre Monday to make sure it didn't get lost in the post or anything. I gave it to a man who said he would sort it out and I didn't have to do anything else.

But the woman from the other place rang me this morning to let me know the Job Centre had rung her because they'd signed me off! Argh. I was so annoyed. I rang the Job Centre to ask why this had happened and some very rude woman told me they hadn't got the form, I hadn't filled anything in so they'd stopped my money. I was sooo angry because I had filled this form in and taking it in but obviously the man I gave it to didn't bother giving it to anyone to sort it all out for me. So I said to the woman "so I'm supposed to struggle without any money because of something you've done wrong?" and all I got was "well it's not my problem". FFS!

I am so annoyed that they've done this and really want to complain but don't know if I have the right to.

*deep breaths*.

Do I complain about this or just let it go and hope I find a job soon or something?

That sucks so much.
I can understand why you're annoyed and I would say that you have every right to complain. They messed up and now you're not getting any money, which isn't right. This is their fault and they need to fix this.
I hope that you're able to work things out and I hope you get a job soon. I know it's really frustrating doing everything you can and just not being able to get work anywhere.
*squishes*

i would say you do have a right to complain.
they need to fix this and you need to get your money.
i understand how frustrating it is because something similar happened to me.
hope you get it sorted
