Hi all, I had my provisional offer (28th Sept) but have heard nothing else since then.
Do they send the forms via email as I am worried it may have gone in the junk box and I have missed it, or do I just be patient and wait?
I applied for Folkestone.

Will do 👍

Hope all of you would agree that it will be quite helpful and probably save all of us time in asking the routine questions if we all stuck to a set format while putting posts...for example I have listed some questions as below:

Post apppied for:BFO
Location: Birmingham
Application type: Internal
On waiting list: since 17 May 2018

And then whatever information you want to share to update us.

It will be really useful if any of you who have had provisional offers can mention AHW % as well with all the other information as all of us waiting don’t even know what we might be offered 😳 for different locations.

Btw for RTF roles it was around 48.89%

Provisional offers dont state the AHA.
When i asked at my location -static role Edinburgh (went in with Id for scanning after initial still interested email) i asked.
THe BF commander said it varies by shift pattern but around 36-39%

London would be higher given the premiums for that area

Hi,
I'm in the same boat.
Got a provisional offer for Heathrow on 25/09/18 and was told GRS will be in touch for pre employment checks. I haven't heard anything since.

Also folkestone. My dates are similar to yours. I harass capita pretty much every day and they are now admitting that they will not be able to offer any suggestions on timescale but also will not provide contact details for GRS. So it's stand by to stand by..

As an external candidate have been advised by the central recruitment team forms will be sent by email.
