    Hi
    Please may I join? I went BR this week. Not sure quite how I am feeling about it all yet though!
    I lurked on here quite a lot whilst I was completing my forms - thanks to all those who have posted with advice and tips!

    Hiya 100things and welcome to June's BR Club :beer:

    To add you to post one I need is the date of your BR

    I was the same as you, I only posted after my BR after following all the advice here.

    Best wishes

    all done yesterday. the judge didn't even want to see me. The OR rang later, wants a phone interview and 3 payslips. Is that all there is...

    I am not sure if I feel relieved or stressed or upset or anything. Just want the phone interview to be over now

    I'm so pleased all went well GM :beer:
    Often when the SOA (form 6.28) is filled in correctly and your BR is straightforward that is all they do need. You may receive a letter asking for some bank statements too.

    The OR call is nothing to worry about, its just for the OR to get a feel why you went BR. Before the call just look through your 6.28/SOA so your familiar with what you have said. The OR will just go through your 6.28/SOA with you. Also before the call have a big mug of tea ready or a bottle of water, and while they are writing things down you can have sips of tea/water, so you don't feel you have to fill in the pauses. And if you don’t know the answer to a question just say so. Do have a list with all questions ‘you’ want to ask. Can last anything from half an hour to an hour and a half.

    Here's to your new start and let us know how you get on with the OR call.

    I have recently had a bad car accident and the hospital changed my appointment time. I rang the OR to tell her I needed to change the time and she was so nice. she said my health is more important and I just shed a tear. It shouldn't be too bad..

    I'm sorry to hear of your accident GM and some OR's are lovely, and non judgemental seems like you've got a lovely one.

    I am sorry your OR call was odd and it's a good idea to start a new thread as the same may have happened to others too.
