Hi,

I am sorry to bother you yet again but I have tried altering the original number as advised in the forums   0208 271 5000 to exchanging the last digit to 1/2/3/ etc but that didnt work and just redirected me to 0845 604 3719.  I tried on the search as advised but that redirects me back to my post and not to any lists so maybe I can go no further.  

I am struggling with the search engine - perhaps I am doing something very wrong but cant seem to progress any further.

Thanks

GG

I cant find the number for Bromley Job Centre and I didnt find the search facility very user friendly.  Can anyone help?  How do I access the database for previous entries- doesnt like the word Jobcentre!



All you have to do is put the number in the search and you will find the number you are looking for on the database..... 020 8271 5021 which is in the verified list Roll Eyes

Thanks. Good to hear you've found it.

It is worth pointing out that the entries for Jobcentres will be found by searching for
jobcentre
, that is all one word. Putting a space in it will return nothing unless there are recently entered unverified entries that have been submitted that way.

I check every day or so and change any entries that have been submitted as "Job Centre" (with a space in) to be just "Jobcentre Plus".

Does anyone have an alternative to 0845 6060 234.  I have some jobs I want to apply for on the job centre website but it'll cost me a fortune to call them on my mobile  Embarrassed

0845 6060 324 is the 'job enquiries' number.

I quote from the Jobcentre booklet 'Our Service Standards' (DWP1018), page 7, 'When you phone us':

'We aim to answer phone calls within 30 seconds. Our staff will give you their name and the name of the office or section you have called.

We will ring you back if you are concerned about the cost of the call or if we can't answer your question straight away'


It seems to me that if you call this number from your mobile you can expect to pay for no more than the time it takes to give them you mobile number and tell then that you are concerned about the cost of the call and require them to call you back in accordance with their service standards.

If you do this, and they refuse to call you back, file a formal complain, (the form is in this same DWP1018 booklet). If you get nowhere with that, complain to your MP that they have not done what they have promised to do.

Good luck with it.

We haven't found an alternative for 0845 6060 234 which I believe is Jobseeker Direct or whatever it happens to be called at this moment in time.

I suggest that you find a number for your local Jobcentre and ring them about it. Look in our database to see if your branch is listed. If not, follow the guidance I posted previously and let me know what you find by posting here. If you find a number, I will add it to the database for others to use.  Smiley

Welcome to SAYNOTO0870.COM.

I'm not sure why you've posed the question I've highlighted.

Based on the text you've quoted, I presume that you have taken it from the Jobcentre Local Office Search at los.direct.gov.uk

If the social fund is based at that same address then we need to look for the numbers that go to that address.

At present there is no entry for St Helen's Jobcentre in our database. Therefore, follow the guidance I posted previously.  The starting point is the old main number for St Helens Jobcentre which is 01744 698000. Thus, I suggest that numbers are probably in the 6980xx range and possibly higher; i.e. 6981xx etc. The number of numbers they have is likely to depend largely on the number of staff they have at that location.

Let me know how you get on by posting back here. Once you have a suitable number that they will deal with calls on, post here and I will add it to the database for others to use.  Smiley
