So pleased for you. Hopefully not too long to wait. All they said in my interview is that we've been called back because there's a training need and it'll be sooner rather than later. I've previously seen on here a rumoured May course...

Yeah right at the end i was asked about notice period and annual leave left to take. I took that to mean theres a course April/May with the end of the financial year approaching. I honestly didnt know how id done. So chuffed to pass it again though.

'London Midland' no longer exists.
The franchise that took over late last year is West Midlands Trains.
Essentially they are the same thing though, All LM staff are now WMT staff.

Mid May start date was touted. I've not had an email mentioning postponement yet though. You for Birmingham?

Yes I’m for Birmingham, received an email Thursday just gone as I’ll send it to you as a PM.

Just worried that the wait is getting longer and longer, just Hoping for light at the end of this tunnel

They might be a little busy what with them being on a full time rules course? Just a thought. Perhaps they will share a bit more when they have a moment?

I get that, but they can’t be that busy on a course if someone has responded with 3 words, it’s kinda a kick in the teeth, I’ll be starting on the May course hopefully and happy to share info but kinda pointless my writing “yeah it great”

I agree very rude, not a team player

I totally agree with you it rude

Come on guys, you can't expect a villa fan to string more than 3 words together at once.. :lol:

Seriously though, he is probably deep in rules with very little free time!
