Careless company and their ‘work placement’ programme, that was aimed towards the youth, was a horrendous waste of time. Was told they would help me find a job however they were more focused on m... See more

Absolute diabolical company. Yet another year of cock-ups regards incorrect pay and HMRC details. They clearly don't understand the timesheets or bother to read them. I had incorrect figures and paysl... See more

I had the misfortune to be at the Wolverhampton office, Selena was my advisor. I actually Sat down with this waste of space once in 6 months. All other appointments I waited 30 minutes every time due to her incompetence watched other people wait while thier consultants laughed made personal calls. In the end I complained to the manager. Obviously nothing was done. Ofsted is my next port of call. Why have the Dwp and People's plus doing the same job badly? Absolute waist of clients time.

people plus Service bulling threaten …

people plus bulling threaten service unprofessional staff forcing unemployed to seek any jobs and attend job search daily, they have no respect to anyone and if complaint they will take revenge as they did to me by forcing me come to the office daily and to apply for minimum 4 jobs daily. The reason they do this because DWP gave them power and they treat unemployed by force like slave, this is government plan from bad to worse Britain

Peopleplus Kings Norton completely …

Peopleplus Kings Norton completely bullying people, blackmailed me telling me I had to take a job 30miles away for £7.50p/h or I would be sanctioned for 13weeks after adding up travel costs & rent I would be £50 a week in debt = I have the sanction then cause I would rather starve than starve & be in debt. These people offer no help they are a bullying agency. I was made redundant from a £40,000p/a job & the stupid little bully thinks I'm beneath her

People plus Thanet avoid

Awful. Bullying in Ramsgate is par for the course. Anything to get you sanctioned. Being baited and antagonised is fun for some of the staff. One or two good ones spoilt by the nasties. The sooner DWP kicks them out and those staff -Sara L- are stuck in the benefit queue themselves I shall laugh my butt off. Some very nasty people work at people plus. Very nasty. Avoid!

Kelly at High Wycombe

If you have the misfortune to see Kelly Champion at the High Wycombe office be prepared for unwarranted DNAs and general incompetence. You visit will be a waste of time you will probably have false allegations to counter with the Job Centre. Worst of all she thinks she is always right and you are always wrong.
