"Why do you care?" is another valid answer.

OP, if you're a Universal Credit signee: stay strong, just be polite and cordial with the in person sessions and they'll do their best to work the system as much as they can.

Trust me, being polite and positive with the person in the Job Centre brightens their day as it's a break from them having to deal with the dregs of society.

It's a shitty system but having been there before at my lowest time in life, it can get better.

This looks exactly like the UK government website

When I’m signing up on a site with a mandatory telephone number and I don’t want to share mine, I always look up their number and use that 😎

I find most businesses don't like any communication that is not one way them to you.

Gen X here.

In business we don't do random calls - that's reserved for "shit's on fire". Calls are scheduled, because we know everyone is as busy as a one-legged man in an ass-kicking contest.

Teleport did that and more. I supplied a spambox and made sure i'm in no lists, all checkboxes off, yet they still spam me weekly. And they REALLY wanted the company name, my position, income and more to "create a special offer". All that ao I could get an approximate annual cost for their services, given the number of users. We voted with our wallet, that kind of marketing alone was the reason we did not progress with their service, even though the product is great.

I think I get a little stressed every time I see this specific styling.
