    new DBS check

    anyone seen the new way you have to apply for basic DBS check?

    talk about intrusive unnecessary questions, and over the top application process, and broken failing application web sites.

    really takes big brother to a whole new level, and clear incompetence writ large.

    makes even the nonsense of the SC security check application process look smooth and simple.

    Really? I did a DBS check yesterday, took a few hours end to end to get my certificate posted and an online decision.

    Much better than the old process

            I did one in March. It were simple and I am very simple, so guess how simple that is!

            The main annoyance is that the printed version is on a stupid size paper that's impossible to get my ADF scanner to read.
