I never did since it seemed pointless but my friend did and he just got pushed aside. Our Job Centre is pretty bad though, they won't help you very much and after 1 or 2 sign ins they'll just refer you to this education place which apparently you aren't meant to go to unless you've been on JSA for a very long period of time. They just wash their hands of you really.
I'm glad I took myself off it, I'm earning more then I did when I signed on and I'm only applying for jobs I have a chance of getting instead of being forced to apply for ones I'd never get to satisfy a bureaucratic tyrant.
