I am on this this enterprise allowance now for 3 weeks now as they have started paying my £65.00 per week on a weekly basis. I was approved for a loan for £1,000 and have to pay it back over 3 years 1st year is small amount as it is the interest like £7.00 a month, then larger amounts over the next 2 years after. I have advertised for work in cleaning Business but I have so far not has one single enquiry for carpet cleaning. You do get your council tax paid for and rent and the rent people who pay it review you every 3 months but you have to produce Banking statements to them...if you do any work you need to notify them and all money have to go through the Business account as evidence. You get a further interview after say 6 weeks and again they expect you to produce banking statements and other documents. If this does not work after 26 weeks then I believe you can be transfer back to Job seekers allowance. Then your have to apply for work again. The real issues are that most of these small Businesses fail because their is not enough start up money to make it work. People don't have the money to pay anyone and going by what I am going through I cant see it working under the current financial economic situation. But I use to work in the construction industry for over 8 years always working but over the last 2 years most of the work was through agencies and now they hardly call and when they did call work was just 2 days work or one day work. Hardly enough to go off Job seekers for. This situation is just going to go on and on for way over the next 5 years... I don't see an end to any of it before I retire. I am 52 now. But given a much different economic climate the Business could very well work, but always they start these pointless schemes when people don't want to spend their money on these sort of things. But their you have it. The point I want info on is if this does not work for me can I go back on J.S.A. and how long have I got to be on this for?
