A question about : Working from home, is it genuine??

I have always come across many adverts from the web and local newspapers about working from home claiming you can earn Ј200 - Ј300 per wk.. They usually ask for your personal details and an information pack will be sent to you. I have never participated in this as I’m often quite sceptical about it, assuming that its all a scam and none of this is genuine. Has anyone actually tried it , and what does it actually involve? And is there any cost involve too?

A question about : Jobseeker Direct

I'm trying to find out Jobseeker Direct's geographical telephone number.

A request through saynoto0870.com has proved fruitless so far, so I was wondering if fellow MSE'rs could provide further assistance.

The darn thing seems to be well hidden!

A question about : Work Life Balance/Part time working

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this so feel free to move.
I'm hoping someone on here can help me. I work for government and recently transferred departments. To facilitate the move i had to increse my hours from part time to full time. This was not a problem at the time but now my personal circumstances have changed dramatically, in that i am now a single parent. My childminder has also given up work so i am in a predicament there too!

Hi People,

Im a student on a placement year, and just have had my P60 form for the last tax year. Before i ring my local tax office, can someone please confirm that i am entitled to a rebate.
