ugh today.
Went to the bank. Wanted to take out £2k and transfer it to my building society account for saving. I can barely hear the guy which wasn't helping but he kept saying he didn't have enough money and i'd have to wait while he gets more. He gets it and then asks for some ID from me because of how much i'm withdrawing. I don't drive, and i don't leave the UK so i have no ID. Everyone is blank. In the end the manager took my dads driving license as a ~special case~ Christ.
Then we go to the Job Centre to ask about how i get my hands on the proof that says i'm allowed to get free pharmacy prescriptions and dental checks and stuff. Woman tells me i need to fill in a form but ~*~They don't have any forms~*~ so she tells me to use their phone to call some number and ask. I do as instructed. Woman on phone is basically like 'the job centre are talking absolute pomegranate and we can't help you and they should know this' We go back to the other woman like the pineapple? She leaves us on a sofa while she finds someone to help.
We get assigned another lady, who gives me a print out that just says how much i get paid a week and says that's my proof. It ~might~ run out after 3 months and i have to come and get another print out depending on who i show it to, but shes not my dentist so she wouldn't know the rules! .... ._.?
We get home. I have a headache and my Dad is talking about how vague and unhelpful the job centre were. eesh.
