@Penfanackapan @TraceySpicer nope. They are the rules. They say I have to apply for 20 jobs a month even though I am effectively volunteering full time. There are not 20 remote jobs a month that I can apply for, so I tell them that. The guy from Centrelink told me to lie and just write businesses down. Nope.

@caitysempire I hope your #Centrelink problem has actually been solved. It's important to apply a high degree of vigilance; too often, I have checked back later and no action has been taken, or the action has failed to update the system.

Just off a phone call with the complaints line at #Centrelink where we actually got a problem solved by an incredibly helpful and kind staffer, and now I am going to collapse in a corner from sheer relief.

It’s labor being criticised for helping the rich that we should really be outraged about

@TP_OZ @margo694 @AdamBandt Centrelink needs a revamp. That is true. To start albo could put forth legislation to cap rents based on the average income of each suburb, that will bring rents and housing prices down. The cost of living HAS NOT DECREASED... it's affecting EVERYONE.

@AngelComrade @shanebazzi @Centrelink Not a lawyer either, but I think that’s the doctrine of acquiescence: if you know about an issue & do nothing within a reasonable time, you give up your claim. But I reckon there’ll be legislation that protects Centrelink from collecting debts for an outrageously long time.

@shanebazzi @Centrelink I'm having a similar issue. I underreported 1 week in 2020, immediately called and rectified, they said it would be sorted when debt recovery came back. Instead of getting the $160 difference to pay back from that week (fair) they decided to say I was in debt for $550 covid supp

I'm baffled by the accusations & the lack of info on their platform with statements like "That's not written down here & you never told us" I'm starting to think that they've lost their database.

The "working cl***" does NOT pay for Centrelink, it pays for politicians, roadworks, Medicare etc.
People on "welfare" have NO CHOICE but to put money back into the economy (GST) because there's no money left to hoard.
