wasted time at uif office

I was retrenched Sept 2015 and am still unemployed ; single father of two boys . I spent many days following the instructions getting paperwork submitted but constantly getting excuses such as system is off or the paperwork was not captured yet ;recently after sitting there a whole day I was told they don't understand why I was employed by 3 companies that is why my case is not approved the company sent e-mail proof that the name is indeed a 3 word name for one company the clerk told me to come back in 3 weeks ,this I did only to find the problem was not solved yet.<br> <br> I have been working and UIF deducted from my pay since 1981 the purpose of these monthly deductions is as we know to provide in event of unemployment , it is however not the case I am struggling to feed my kids or pay accounts because in the time of unemployment the UIF is not forthcoming so the whole purpose of the UIF deductions is null and void. When I find employment chances are that I would not have received a single sent.<br> <br> The question arises if this failure to perform by the UIF is intentional as if they are hoping you find work so that no payment has to be done.<br> <br> The purpose of UIF deductions failed me.
