    Or has his business turned down business leaving it no choice but to make its employee redundant?

      I did JSA early years, only once.

      It isn't worth the effort (unless you and your company are totally skint).

      3 month's worth of JSA would pay you around £800-ish, I could earn that in a couple of days contracting.

      Enjoy life a bit while on the bench IMO - don't spend it filling out forms, or in queues or interviews in the Job Centre

          on reflection too unfair even for PC.

          However, last week you had a renewal granted it didn't pay well but it paid something. What on earth are you doing?

                Surely if you drain the warchest into personal accounts you will be over some limit for savings to claim JSA?

                  Your spelling is borderline criminal. I'd strongly suggest you get a pro bono lawyer ASAP.
