    Default DBS been with police over 60days

    I want to scream DBS has been with the police over 60 days now and Im going to have to call them up to chase it tomorrow. Its absolutely ridiculous how long its taken. Its been with the police 60 days but i applied for it nearly 3 months ago!

    Getting so fed up of this now.
    I called my local police station who put me through to west midlands police dbs centre who told me they havent recieved anything from capita about the check being advanced cause of it being 60 days. They said it should hope fully be looked at next week but thats just an estimate.

    I call capita to say the police havent recieved anything and they said its been sent and nothing they can do. Arrrrr!

    Sorry I took so long to reply, I'm getting my head round the app lol.
    I called 101 and asked for Derbyshire. After a lot of explaining I got transferred to DBS who said they'd keep an eye on it. X

    This is ridiculous!
    Still nothing im spending most of my time worrying and stressing out the DBS check coming back!
    Ive called capita and the police every day for the last week and the police are still saying its going to take another week.
    Tomorrow its been 14 days since I escalated it so if they cant help me any more tomorrow im going to put a complaint in even it wont make any difference.
