gemfyreBut this time it was kinda amusing.
I haven't been getting rent assistance. I've filled out the forms and see no reason why I'd be inelligible, so I call.
Simple mistake. Someone put in 1/6 instead of 6/1 as my moving date (i.e. 1st of June instead of 6th of January). However, it takes a bit to figure out how to get the system to backpay me.
I have never heard someone make so much noise waiting for the computer to work. She hummed, she made weird kissy noises, she went "do-do-do" in a vaguely tuneful manner. She put me on hold for a bit, but halfway through she came back to tell me "Just a sec mate!"
The problem is now solved so that's all good. And Centerlink actually gave me a bit of a laugh for a change.
