Jobseekers Benefit payment question

I pick up my JB payment every Wednesday. Say I get a job that starts on a Monday, how do I (or DO I) receive JB payment for the preceding Thurs/Fri ?

Grand, and you would normally go to the post office to collect the payment right?

Or did you always get the payments sent to you?



On a side note, what's with the INTREO offices never answering their phones?

I tried ringing 5 different offices around Dublin at various points in the day and let the phone ring out for several minutes each time.
