My new job doesnt start until September so I might aswell become dole scum until then...............I see it more as a holiday 
Also, I get council tax exemption - saves £100 a month or so

Dunno who told you that but its wrong. IF you apply for benefit you get Ctax benefit and housing benefit. Yuor still liable for water charges etc. Plus you might not get a full 100% benefit so dont expect to not be paying anything.

According to their website your right Cosmo 
Who isn't eligible?
You can't usually get Jobseeker's Allowance if you're:
under 18
a full-time student
There are exceptions - particularly if you look after children - so it's worth checking with your local Jobcentre Plus to see if you're eligible
