Thanks a lot for your encouragment. Hope I will get justice at the end.

Netacct you are absolutely right. It is not the fight for money. As per my lawyer I can only get notice period pay or at the most my waiting period also. But the thing is I am clean and I want them to accept that. I tried my best my submitting all the required documents but still they didn't acknowl...

Thanks a lot for all your comments. I am working, I wasted only my six weeks as my last boss approached me and said if I want I can come back. I agreed initially for 4 weeks after taking permission from them and now then got extension for another around 5 months. That way I am not sitting and wastin...

I did contact the Citizens Advice Bureau and also ACAS and both suggested that this a breach of contract and I should sue them but I didn't wanted to do that and wanted to the job. But now as they have completely closed the case saying they have no more vacancy that is why I agreed to sue them. But ...

Regarding working for them that is a big NO now, I can't work for them now after all this. Yes I was ready to work for them till I gave them all the proof that it is not me who has this record. But not now.

Thanks a lot for your response. Lets us see, I got a bit afraid when republique said that there is no case at all.

Also what about that they wanted me to apply again say if I was not a clear record why they wanted me to apply again. To be hones I never understood that why they were saying me to apply again. I think if I would have applied they would have straight forward reject me without short listinng and then...

The problem was I agree but that is something if you look at something wrong that was not my problem. They looked throughout the world with my name that too the email which was sent to to me says that it is the first name only which matches and nothing else like date of birth or address.

But there was no problem in the criminal check as I don't have any criminal record, what about that.

What happens if an employer withdraws a job offer? If the offer's withdrawn before you have a chance to accept, or because you haven't met the conditions (for example, providing a 'satisfactory' reference), you can't take any action, unless it has been withdrawn for reasons of unlawful discriminatio...

I think the market isn't good overall for Mainframe in UK but that doesn't mean that there are no jobs at all. I also had a bad time when I came first to UK, it took me several months to get the first job(some mistake on my part as initially I wasn't ready to work as a contractor). Also what I notic...

As promised to those who tried to help me in this post that I will keep you updated what is going on. Here is the update.

Thanks a lot for your advice. I had received a letter from HR saying that they are withdrawing my offer because of unsatisfactory report from World Criminal Check. I replied to the same on Monday as: =============== Dear Sir/Madam, I had already conveyed to Mr. XXXXXXX verbally on and through a writ...

I got a reply saying that they can't hold offer for me and are going to recruit a new person for that position. I don't know now what to do in this case.

I got a reply today with some details regarding the check. It is regarding some case which has happened in a place where I was not living at that time. Also they mentioned that the match is purely only on the basis of name and not other details like date of birth. I requested them today to give me a...

Thanks a lot for all those who responded. I would request others also to respond. The company is a private sector and not a govt organisation. The offer had mentioned that the start date is subject to background checks. I called them today again and asked for details but they are saying that they ca...

I request all the senior people to give your advice.

Thanks a lot for your response. I agree that it was my mistake to stop looking for job, but you wouldn't beleive that everything was looking so settled that I stopped looking for a new job. I am also thinking the same that I will tell them that I will take you to court because when I today asked abo...

Hi All, I was working as a contractor and got a new job as a permanent. I didn't accept the extension and went to home for holidays so that I can join on time to my new employer. I came on the said date and was told that I can't join as the verification checks aren't complete because they had forgot...
