Social welfare office closed on Signing on day??

Bruce Buffer

I went to sign on yesterday but when I got to the offices it said "closed due to flooding in the area".


Will I be automaticaly signed on for this month??


I've been trying to ring them all morning but no answer.

Thats bad form if they didin't have a notice up to say when they can sign-on.

The sign said:

Office closed due to flooding in the area
Next sign on day 03/11/09

I took that as Id be signed on for this month.

Walked for a half an hour in lashing rain yesterday to get to the offices to find out they're closed :rolleyes:

EDIT:Anyone here that's signs on in nutgrove shopping center see the sign. Nearly 100% sure that's what it said.

I would take that to mean signing was excused for yesterday, and your next sign on day is 3rd November. They cannot penalise you for not being able to sign on a day the office was not open.

I'd read it that I didn't have to go back until November as well.

Off topic, but isn't the Nutgrove office up a flight of stairs? How deep was the flooding?

Flooding could have been via a roof leak ???

If the flooding was in the area it could have kept the people who work there from getting in safely.
