The last bit of the process is very fast once they do get back to you, I think I did mine a week earlier than you. Do you need to give a notice period too?

oh no! what a shame - did it not come through to your email? 9 weeks is a wait and a half. I’m on 7.

The conditional offer did yeah, but I missed today's phone call so I'm gutted as there's no option to call back.

I do hope they call again soon, yeah 9 weeks so far it's so long, just glad I'm currently in work while I wait.

Very eager to start as a DM though so fingers crossed I get another call soon.

Hey everyone. Anyone else still waiting for a start date in Wrexham for UCR, all my pre employment checks were completed 18/3 and I went into the office with my physical ID late march but no news on the start date yet. It’s such a lengthy process 😅😅😅

Hi Lydia,
I’m also UC case review in Wrexham. I heard back last week with a start date for the 13th May. My checks were completed at the end of March. After receiving my email confirming checks were completed I received contact from the data gather team that same week, and then after that the core team telephone call explaining the ins and outs of the job etc. the next day I received a transcript of that discussion, which I had to confirm, and then I received my contract and start date. This was all done within a week of each other - I think once you’ve had the data gather contact it’s quite quick and everything runs smoothly from there on. I would contact them on the chat to get an update. I have found them to be really responsive once all checks are completed. I’ll look forward to seeing you on site soon 🙂
Hope this helps. Feel free to ask anything and I’ll try my best to answer. I know It’s frustrating waiting. X

Thankyou so much for this reply - it’s really helpful! Congratulations on your start date 🎉 glad to know it’s abit more smooth sailing towards the end 😅 my currently employer know I’m leaving, but I haven’t put in my formal notice yet as advised, until all my formal offer! Yes I’m sure we’ll meet soon in the office! Super excited to start x
