This is agony
 

Congratulations to those who have recieved the good news they have been waiting for. I am still stuck in limboland and it seems that everyone else on here has had an email. This is very worrying as all sorts of things start running through my head such as are they sending out yes email first and then no emails? My god limbo land is a lonely place right now. Fingers crossed

Re: This is agony
 

Check your junk box

Re: This is agony
 

Fingers crossed for you, hopefully it's just them working through the list :)

Re: This is agony
 

I checked all available boxes lol. Thanks

Re: This is agony
 

I'm sure you will hear soon. They have quite a few people to email so bear with them.

Re: This is agony
 

Agony? That would be easy compared to this! Never mind no finger nails left, I'm down to my elbows!
One small word is all I want "YES", God, you're killing me and the family.
Nothing in life is ever easy.

Re: This is agony
 

Your not alone, I'm still waiting too!

Re: This is agony
 

Can't it be bed time so I can at least try to get some sleep and wake up with a positive email?!

Re: This is agony
 

Still waiting too :frown: have checked several times today and am even checking now when it is probably middle of the night in perth, anyone got sue o'connors home telephone?

Re: This is agony
 

Congrats too all of those who have made it so far, good luck and fingers crossed to everyone on this thread...

Re: This is agony
 

Chaz I reckon Sue has turned her phone off, but I like your thinking :-)

Re: This is agony
 

Are people still waiting to hear? I've noticed some are getting no' s now and I'm panicking?!
I still havn't heard anything?! Not sure if my battery is gonna last my shift after I keep checking my emails every 2 minutes?!

Re: This is agony
 

I got a no im gutted

Re: This is agony
 

Sorry to hear that! Il b gutted if it's a no too?!
Did you pass all your fitness?!

Re: This is agony
 

Fadsie, I'm equally gutted for you and know exactly how you feel unfortunately. Lack of individual feedback is a killer.

Re: This is agony
 

Ozpcwannabe - passed the fitness first attempt 6 September.

Re: This is agony
 

Oh no that's pants. Really thought if ud passed the fitness ul b half way there?!
COME ON DAMN EMAIL... IM WAITING!!

Re: This is agony
 

Yeah passed everything 1st time. 30yrs old, 5 years frontline, no dependants, I genuinely felt like I ticked all the boxes. It is so hurtful

Re: This is agony
 

You would think all those boxes are ticked?!
I'm not far off you really. I passed fitness too. 28, 7.5 years front line, single going alone but wiv all family in oz I'm only one left in uk!
I'm hoping its positive otherwise it's plan b! But it still includes going oz!
How do you think interview went?

Re: This is agony
 

I thought it went ok!! Obviously I was wrong though. I dont understand. I am going to phone tonight and plead my case. May as well try

Re: This is agony
 

Well I guess you have to do what you think is best. When it's your dream you will do what it takes to get it I guess. Just don't get angry!

Re: This is agony
 

Fadsie,

I didn't think my interview was of catastrophic proportions either. There was an issue with a PSD complaint which I managed to sort out after the interview that was an incorrect entry which is why I didn't know about it when questioned.
My force sent emails to WAPOL in order to clarify the error and explain the entry was being expunged but it doesn't appear to have made any difference. I am just hoping that my force's emails have been lost or gone missing from my file and that is why I was turned down, as they were sent while the recruitment team were still in London. Hopefully it may give me a second chance at the dream.
At this stage, neither of us have anything left to lose is the way I look at it but good advice from Ozwannab. It's only the cost of a phone call as well.

Re: This is agony
 

That's it mate. I had 2 outstanding complaints sprung on me aswell. One I was sure had been resolved. The other I recieved an email for but have heard nothing since. I also spoke to psd after interview and it turns out the one I thought was resolved had been resolved but not updated and the other is a nothing complaint which will be dealt with very soon. That is the only thing I could think cost me. Hopefully they will look at it again. It seems a coincidence that we both missed out and both had psd issues

Re: This is agony
 

Fadsie not sure if u remember the lad from GMP who was next to me on our fitness day but he also got a no due to psd issues. Not sure what he's going to do but he did say that he had an ongoing one.

Good luck to you both, when you make that call.

Re: This is agony
 

Cheers mate. Ill let ya know the result. This complaint is a bloke who didnt like being arrested and said i was rude and obnoxious. A typical complaint I hope it doesn't cost me everything

Re: This is agony
 

I know when I read the email my husband got when it came to testing in London it said something like if you get any complaints or points on your licence then contact us immediately as you can no longer progress in the recuritment stages.

Re: This is agony
 

Dinger and Fadsie, really feel for you guys, I know you've put your hearts into this, you are both 100% and you deserve to get through....I still haven't heard and am now prepping myself for the worse. I too thought that my interview was ok, passed fitness first time, only one nothing complaint sprung on me that they didn't seem overly concerned about....Hopefully tomorrow I'll know one way or the other. First day from Wapol recruitment seems to be yes, second day no, third day..........

Re: This is agony
 

Hi did you manage to plead your case or at least get some feedback.

Re: This is agony
 

I have just received a reply from Wapol after contacting them several times. It seems I just didn't meet the standard they require overall, not just because of an erroneous entry on my complaints history. Can't argue with that as my interviewed dipped for the worse after the erroneous entry was discussed so didn't do myself justice from there on in as I was so worried about the entry I knew nothing about.

Better luck next time for me!!!

Re: This is agony
 

Oh that's a shame. But least you got some answers in the end. Try, try, again?!
I'm STILL waiting?! Starting to prepare for the worst now! :(

Re: This is agony
 

Dinger, that article is good news for you, in a way. Not the news you wanted, but now you know they'll probably be back, keep your head down, and nail it next time.

Re: This is agony
 

Better in limbo than not in my case!!!

Re: This is agony
 

Dinger - is there any time limit on when you can apply again?

Re: This is agony
 

Harry- when I did it before I was told I had to wait 6 months before I could apply again?!

Re: This is agony
 

HB they didn't stipulate any time limits so I hope they come back next year so I can try again, and not be so much of a tlt at interview. They have said my overall assessment didn't meet the criteria. I assume my P.E.E was good enough as I got selected for the final stage. I know I passed the fitness test so by method of deduction that would mean my interview and/or psychological assessment let me down (very substantially) by the looks of it. We all must learn from our errors so I will knuckle down and start preparing for their return to these cold damp lands in hope of a successful outcome next time.

Re: This is agony
 

From my email from sue today, I've been successful in the process so far. They are just waiting to hear from the met about my complaint history so until then I'm still waiting for my confirmed yes! I've chased up my HR department so fingers crossed won't be much longer!
