I'd seriously consider giving you the tenner fare to Rotherham myself  :)
But if the interview is in Rotherham, where's the job ?
How the hell do you do a day to day job in Rotherham when you live in town and have a kid  ::)

Is it a case of, if you don't go to the interview, you're not showing your willingly seeking employment ?
This country and dogs springs to mind  :(

The job is in chesterfield, but apparently the chap that phoned me can't do interviews being a Deputy manager so i have to go here and there. Was Alfreton last week. The jobcentre would want to know why I didn't go to the interview and i'm not sure if they can stop your money. They will stop it for anything these days :|. The job is at Brighthouse (again)

Emma, you can claim all expenses, (within reason) for attending a job interview but keep your receipts / tickets then ask the job center for the relevant form. My thinking is that your CV must be Ok as you keep getting these interviews, so be positive, and good luck. (Have you tried Debenhams)
