    I had a good day here in wet windy Cornwall.

    The sea was really wild with a the tide in and massive waves.

    It really is so beautiful here.

    ABSOLUTE NIGHTMARE

    UC NEVER RANG I GOT A VOICEMAIL

    I'M IN a right state

    My phone never rang

    Got voicemail

    Said this is Douglas we had an uc review appointment at 230 you didbt answer

    That's because my phone never rang

    So I. Rang alternate uc number. On hold 30 mins to be told they can't transfer my call

    I left a message for Douglas in my journal

    He replied saying do I have another phone

    No I dont

    I adked can. He call me on a different number he says no

    Then I got a message saying failed to attend appointment grr

    I didn't fail I my phone never rang

    I. Trued to call him back but wouldn't let e through

    I. Left me saying I can answer all questions in my journal

    Now what do I do

    Not my fault phone didn't ring

    My phone works

  • Amberpearl

    I got rather an abrupt message in my journal from Douglas saying

    If I don't sort out my issues with my phone I will have to supply an alternative phone number or my payments will stop

    Is that his way of telling me I need to buy a cheap mobile phone so he can ring me on a different number?

    I'm. Upset and disgusted

    My phone never rang

    I restarted it trued other numbers it works. Ive not blocked them

    I feel like he thinks I'm a liar

    Hey everyone, I've had a mixed day. Had a few tech problems today, don't we love tech when it has its wobbles lol? Anyway I worry a lot about things going wrong so just been worrying about it, especially as it's only nearly a month old. I also went out for lunch today which was nice - I had a jacket potato with prawns.

    Oh @Amberpearl that's horrible, I'm so sorry. I know how much that appointment had been stressing you out. The same thing happened to me before, I sat there with my phone on my lap for an hour beforehand and the phone didn't ring, it just went straight to voicemail. I left a note on my journal and they rearranged the appointment for me and that call went through ok.

    Were you using your phone for anything else at the time, like checking emails or browsing the web? I'm wondering if that might've stopped the call coming through somehow?

    Could you ask for another appointment? Or for someone at the job centre to give you a quick courtesy call, just to make sure the calls are coming through? It may have just been a one off glitch.
