New “Hartz and cordial” episode: Job center cancels Simone’s citizen’s money
“Hartz und cordial” viewer favorite Simone hasn't appeared in front of the camera for a long time.
The mother of two lived in the green block with her adult daughter Saskia and dog Laika.
Son Jonas still gives viewers and fans an insight into the life of the close-knit mother-daughter duo, who always have worries.
He now reveals the two women's serious concerns in front of the camera.
Benz Barracks offspring Jonas moved into his own apartment with his ex-fiancée Martina months ago.
For the man from Mannheim, a long-fought dream came true - but it had consequences.
Because without Jonas, the apartment in the green block was too big for Simone and Saskia, at least that's what the job center thought.
This was followed by the threat of cutting off Simone's citizen's money.
Escape from the Benz barracks?
“Hartz and cordial” favorites in arguments with neighbors
Without Jonas' help and without citizen's money, "Hartz and warmly" favorite Simone could no longer pay for her apartment in the Benz barracks in Mannheim.
The small family tried to explain the situation to the job center, but to no avail.
A little later, the unwanted letter landed in the green block: Simone and Saskia's apartment is to be evicted - but not just because of the high rent.
As Jonas says, his mother and sister almost had to flee the apartment.
Simone and Saskia always had arguments with their neighbors.
But as the security employee explains: “One day things escalated to brutality here when – I swear – my mother had to run away from her own home!” The citizen’s benefit recipient was even threatened with violence.

“Hartz and cordial” Jonas about the neighbors: “They threw shit at us!”
The long-time Benz Barracks residents Simone and Saskia moved head over heels to Simone's friend.
The two women from Mannheim were hoping for peace there before the argument with the neighbors.
“They wanted to attack my whole family!” says Jonas indignantly. “They threw shit at us!”
The social welfare recipients are actually toughened up; because of the show, “Hartz und cordial” participants have to endure a lot.
But the unannounced move out did not go unnoticed by the housing association.
They and the office initiated the eviction because Simone could neither afford the rent nor live in the apartment.
Now Saskia and her mother and their dog Laika have to look for another permanent place to live.
“Hartz and cordial”: Final farewell from the Benz barracks for Simone and Co.?
Simone and her daughter Saskia quickly left the apartment in the Benz barracks.
She was only able to take the bare essentials with her.
In order to save even more possessions from forced eviction, Jonas now has to move in with caretaker Michael.
Martina doesn't support them - she and Jonas had recently separated.
Simone and Saskia don't help the 22-year-old with the clearing out either.
The two no longer dare to go to the Benz barracks.
Apparently the threats Jonas talked about scared the two women.
Since Jonas is too late to clear the apartment, he and his helpers can only save the essentials such as pictures and documents.
For him, the situation is one thing above all: “tragic”.
