I'm absolutely delighted i'm in Jan 2016 Campaign with an oom in the 1000s to give people an idea.
It's a Long road to Tipperary but well worth the wait. :)

Yes September 2016, OOM in the late 100's

Yellowmug

Cool. I'm in the early 400's but only completed the whole process last Saturday so probably looking at November at best.

I'm from September 16 my OOM was low very 100's and I got an offer.
Well done to everyone who got offers! 🙂

Still waiting now since Nov 2015. It's totally unfair on us to be expected just to sit tight like this and wait. We need to be given priority at this stage to move us along.

Yellowmug

How many to they take per intake does anyone know or does it vary?

Completely agree Jan 2016 - and OOM of 390-410. People from sept 16 going ahead very unfair. Do u know where your file is at? Mines with the commisioner with about 12 weeks now, even longer
.

mutter_man

Well done folks, breath a good sigh of relief. The waiting continues

BobbyDaisy

There is a whatsapp group with a few of us who got offers a couple of weeks ago for August, PM me if you want to be added in.

It's not right. You should send an email expressing your concerns on it.might be a few deferrals by Friday. Never know. I'm from Jan campaign myself and my vetting is still ongoing.

DonegalMan0544

Yeah im sorry to hear the people have been waiting this long! Im sept OOM mid 200s.

twoblub

Anyone from Sept below 50 hear anything?

The way it's shaping up you could see people from the June 17 campaign getting in before us...the thoughts of that!

Wouldn't surprise me if it did happen. Just give our sanity that extra push :-P
Look it's there for us. Just another 12week wait. More time to save or clear loans.
But they need a good kick up the arse to get a move on to get all nov/Jan into next intake. Can't be too many of us left

Marksy8429

I have no choice really have I 😧 hopefully it will be worth the wait!

TallGlass

Thanks all, will email them see what's happening. No point getting worked up about it.

I'll wait it out, just hope I get an offer at the end of all this. Would be a bit upset if not.

Best of luck to all heading down. Don't forget us on here! If you can give us snippets without getting in trouble.
