Apart from a necessity to get benefits, has anyone found Jobcentre Plus useful?

Not really, but I didn't find much else useful either.

No. About a much use as a chocolate fireguard.
Unemployed for 6 months about 5 years ago. Threatened to stop my dole because I had not filled in my 'form' correctly. When I pointed out, as nicely as I could, that I did not qualify for dole because I had a military pension, so how could they stop something I did not receive in the first instance, she accused me of being aggressive and I was ‘requested’ to leave the premises.
Best thing that ever happened to me; went self employed, 6 months later I had an employment offer from one of my clients and in the same time frame a competing company made me offer that sufficiently attractive for me to sell out to them.
Yes they were pi$$ed off and no they are no longer trading. Recession
