I do know that some of these aren't static call centres so it may be that there isn't one. Hell they even setup a Call Centre for our HR, and that is an 0845 with no geographic equivalent(so they say) even tho it is located near Blackpool.

All 0845 and 0870 services
are attached to a Geographic number, not necessarily the same one all the time. They can be re-allocated as required as I have explained in other postings.

So just tell me how the pseudo email address finds its way to you ? That's easy! It's attached to your TRUE email address. The same thing applies with the 0845/0870 number. It has to be attached to another number or else how does it get to its final destination Roll Eyes

Sound reasonable ?? Good ! Now go and kick hell out of them and tell them what I've told you and demand the truth . . . . No, you'd better not. It might upset them. Cry

Just root around a bit until you find it and let us know if you can. We promise we won't tell anyone else. It'll be OUR secret, HONEST Lips Sealed

Jobseeker Direct
Reply #4 - Jun 15^th, 2005 at 1:17pm

Hi everyone

I'm trying to find out the geo number for Jobseeker Direct, 0845 6060 234

I'm helping out a few people getting a job and past experiences meant major queuing periods. I'd like to use the service from home through 18866 so, using a geo, the call would be free (well, 2p... )

The search facility comes up with 0151 353 4701. This is Jobcentre Plus 'New Claims' which is quite useful, but not Jobseeker Direct.

Can anyone help?

Many thanks.

The number in the database is for New Claims but they can transfer you as they're in the same building. I know this because I just asked them (spent 10mins in a queue).

For those wanting job enquiries then just say that your local jobcentre gave you this number and you have already been in a queue and they'll transfer you like they transferred me (I then had to spend 5mins pretending I was after another job - lol).

As I know they are based in the same building, I'll over the next week or so, try different number combinations to see if i'm lucky and get the number for job search enquiries.

What I've managed to find so far is that they operate a number range from 0151 353 4701 to about 0151 353 4780 and then random tests after that appear no luck until I get 0151 3534801 (which this appears new claims as well). I'll keep trying every now and again for higher ranges (the lower range (.. 4650) appears to be used by Hugh Baird College in liverpool).

Maybe some did before but now they don't
