Then on Nov 21 I got an e-mail from someone at the Met Police that read:
"Your application form confirms your first name as xxxx with the initials A B. Can you please clarify your names on full and fax me proof of identity for these names."
upon doing so (submitted a copy of my passort ID page) I was sent another e-mail that read:
"I have processed and forwarded your application form to the National Identification Service who are responsible for issuing the Police Checks."
as of today, Dec 7, I have not received the certificate and am fast approaching the 40 days. In addition I sent in Packet 3, and the interview is on Dec 20th (no packet 4 yet either, found out via DOS), so let's hope it gets here!
Anyone else on that postal strike? Are there no more delays in the UK?
cheers
