And that I don't have to send anymore documents in as they will now cross reference everything. How difficult can it be??? 2 birth certificates....means 2 people!!!

One of the lads rang tonight also, about something concerning his claim. only to be told that the person dealing with it was on holiday. WHAT! Can't anyone else deal with it? They should be taking extra staff on at this important time of year, to prevent the apparent backlog, not letting people take hols at this important time if no one else can deal with specific cases! This is kids' futures we are talking about.
They have to get through a lot of applications and it's first come first serve as far as I know. Most continuing students will know how much of a pain it is and will have probably got their applications in straight away.
