CSCS Again!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Cranford-Steve]

Got to apply for another bloody card again! Bloody nuisance, applied before but they mucked it up and now have to go through it again. Any one else had trouble?

no problems at all,just got my black card after a 3 week wait

[Cranford-Steve]

This is the second time. I done my CSCS long time ago when it first came out. Done al the test and never received a card!

Me and a friend took the exam back in August, only just got our cards through.

Caused him to lose a few potentially good jobs.

They do drag there heels, without them some jobs are completley out of reach. It really isnt fair.

How did you let that happen?

 

The requirement is to hold the qualification not the card, they can check your details on the CSCS website.

He turned up for one site induction, got asked to show his card and explained the situation, showed the foreman the printout saying he'd passed which had the application number and after some persuasion went on the website to check but it didn't come up on their system. some glitch in the application.

 

A couple of others just flat out refused to chase it up as it was too much hassle when there were lads with cards queuing up.

 

CSCS just said these thing happen, barely an apology with it.
