Agreed. I earn what I earn which means I get paid no tax credits. Somebody gets paid x amount less and gets enough to bring them upto my wages. Benefits systems gone mad.
As far as I can see the only reason for 'Contribution Based' JSA is to stop the 'uninitiated' from claiming it - anyone would expect that after paying into the system for X amount of years they should be entitled to something back in their hour of need. Not so. If you claim 'Income Based' JSA (supposed to be for people available for work and on low earnings, ie no savings) you can get housing benefit, council tax relief, free prescriptions, free dental care, vastly reduced price college courses etc etc, none of which you get with the 'Contribution Based' one.A tip for anyone signing on - make sure you sign on for Income Based Job Seekers Allowance - YOU WILL GET MORE of EVERYTHING
Ahh, you know most of the regular claimants then...! Thats why they have guards all over the place.jst say get me check now or il wreck the place
