Mine hasnt changed. im for london.
Good Morning, We are currently awaiting a response from the vacancy holder as we require further ID for yourself. We cannot accept ID straight from a candidate so we notified the vacancy holder of what ID documentation we needed. They should be in contact with you. Kind Regards,

Just got that response so not filling me with much hope really considering all documents they asked for they received and they haven't even put in an application for my DBS yet.
If I was in a position now where I had received another job offer from else where I would be withdrawing this application. Doesn't fill me with much hope on how it's ran on the inside.

Hey there exact same email this morning for London.

Was this from CSR in Newcaslte..
I know you are for Manchester... but it was sent by csr and not the office in question.

I gave them all they asked for when asked to go in. These weeks i have been stressing over crimes I never committed, gaps in employment and this pops up.

Hang in there, keep ur options open... we are in a better position than last night.. even though some have got further.

Yep sent by Newcastle.
Me too! Never had any run ins with the police but now I'm sat here questioning about that one time I had to press the panic button at work because a customer became threatening or that time they pulled me over because I was driving at 4am.

Same thing, I took more documents than what they asked for and the guy who was sorting them just picked from them!

I suppose but still on the look out for other work, just seems like a lot of excuses to me
Just received a call today to present my docs next week at Euston Tower. Wondering how long till formal offer after presenting these docs.

Same here Kneale. On the email they sent me they said that they couldn't "commence" the checks without my "missing document"

I'm just waiting for my OH Assist telephone appointment next Wednesday, then hopefully will get a formal offer shortly after. Hoping it's this side of Christmas!

Quick update guys, my account has changed to formal offer without an email and have just accepted it.

This was for the O band role in London, there's no indication on start date and location as of yet.

Check your status guys! Did anyone choose alternative working pattern?


Mine did too. Also received an email with location for Croydon. Start date on the 28th of Nov. I emailed them as Croydon is too far for me, I leave on the outskirts of East London. Travelling time is more than 1,5 door to door. Fingers crossed

Same I'm from East London so Croydon is actually so far and I don't get why they based us there. Did you accept the offer? Who did you email btw, might have to do the same.

All the east londoners i have been doing a little research on quickest travel time and price and feel i have found something decent. From stratford if you avoid zone 1 to get to east croydon you only pay 3.50 single peak 2.50 off peak. stratford to canada water jubilee line 11 mins, canada water overground to new cross gate 5 mins and then southern trains to east croydon less than 15 mins. total time approx 31 mins as opposed to £6.60 single using london bridge from ilford
Seems to have been a fair bit going on today. Has anyone who received provisional offer on 23rd August heard anything? I've had nothing, no request to take in docs and emails ignored.

Nope, I've heard nothing since the provisional offer. In the exact same position as you.
