    Medical passed first week of July, 69% in A.C. Any speculation to when the next calls are going out? Possibly next Thurs/Fri? :)

    Fingers crossed they will go out next week. I've got that week booked off work and it would be a great feeling to go back the following week to hand in my notice however there are quite a few waiting who have completed medical etc so I'm probably looking at the beginning of Sept.

    Nothing wrong with hoping though :-)

    Yep. It was a Wednesday last time so not long til next batch of calls are due. Our smt results will only be back in the next few days so think might be too soon for ourselves J, but sure we'll rocket up the list if nothing else!

    Aye, sorry coogie, left ye off the list as I figured you were nailed on for intake 4. You not confirmed for it yet?

    Yeah, from what I can tell it has. Sorry, I was under the impression that you deferred to next intake at the time of the call. Do they have to call you with an offer again then?

    Yea I got call in June for intake 3? That started in July but had to defer, perhaps I will get intake 5?

    I don't know tbh. Like I said, I assumed you would have deferred to intake 4. Didn't realise they'd to call again with an offer.

    Did intake 4 not suit either?

    The later intake the better, hopefully a call this week though. Fingers crossed for intake 5

    Ah right fair enough....you're like the opposite to the rest of us ha. I'm sure you're definitely in the next batch.

    Has anyone waiting rang to confirm vetting cleared or still ongoing?

    Think anyone who has is just getting a generic respone that it is ongoing.

    You could be right Dekkers. However looking back through previous posts from those who have already received the call some of them got contacted very soon after passing the medical.

    I think I have just realised that I am really starting to over analyse this forum.

    I used to be a patient person......

    Yeah I really don't know ha. Anything could happen time scale wise. It'll be good just to see some B grades get the call. We could just scrape in!

    Congrats Dekkers. Welcome to limbo. Just wanted to rub everyone's noses in it that the first couple of intakes get to patrol and crowd control 9th august in D/LD with their tutors as they're short staffed. Jealous much?!?! I know I bloody am!!!

    Still no request for additional info, dear john must be coming lol. Hope you're all keeping well and time in limbo is passing quickly. Been missing the craic but was inspired to pop on here when I seen the Zoolander quotes on TV. The guys from intake 4 will get it lol

    That is pretty cool though. I guess the first squad will be passing out before too long!

    Guys, if you are lucky enough to get the call, has anyone an idea how long after the start date is likely to be??

    1st week in June and I've 71% from the AC. But I think I'm in the delayed batch.

    When was your medical?

    I only completed my medical recently buddy so it's probably unlikely I'll be lucky enough to get a call next week, if that's when they do go out. But I'm still going to keep my fingers crossed anyway.

    Congratulations! I'm sure you're over the moon :D . Can I ask you when you did your medical and did you contact vetting through the extension line? Tempted to ask too simply for the fact that I really do need to know soon in case I need to act quickly and make other arrangements if unfortunately, for some reason, I haven't passed.

    Fingers crossed the next batch of calls are going out very soon and best of luck to everyone, like myself, who is waiting :)

    i asked for hr, they then said they had to transfer me, didn't say where, spoke to this nice lady who said that everything had come back clear and that my vetting had passed. Was a bit apprehensive about ringing as they refused to even put me thru to hr the last time...

    had my medical early may, used the 101 number and just asked for hr. Wouldn't do any harm trying, i think its a case of who answers the phone when its a question of will you get info or not, as the last time switchboard wouldn't even put me through.


  • Registered Users Posts: 24 rickmar


    I saw my name on Dekkers list so I thought I'd update my situation. I have passed all stages although I had a further request from vetting for more information a few months ago which I completed and returned. I was worried about the extra info to start but I just told the truth and provided as much paperwork as I could and after recently contacting HR through the 101 number was told it had cleared. However on probing for dates on the next call I hit a stone wall. I scored 69 in the AC and will just be keeping fingers crossed for a call. Good luck to anyone in the high 60's waiting.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 11 Dicor12


    Called 101 today myself as I couldn't wait any longer.

    Passed vetting, again tried to ask a bit more detail into position on merit list but they said they couldn't provide that information.
