Just looking at the facts you posted:Originally posted by kingmob View Postnever had enhanced DBS check before and the DBS site says it takes 4 weeks...
if you chased after a day then arent you likely to p*ss off the agency or client?
So the DBS site says it takes 4 weeks (which set your expectations).
You said it took yours 4.5 weeks (after 3.5 weeks you resubmitted).
And you think you’re down £4K.

eh????Originally posted by kingmob View Postnever had enhanced DBS check before and the DBS site says it takes 4 weeks...

Did you not do the DBS check yourself? If you have no criminal record it's back in a day or two, then you send to the agency.
Don't say you let the agency do it for you.........See You Next TuesdayComment
