Hi All Apologies if I am doing things incorrectly in particular starting threads. I have been following the forums and it would be good to see what the outcomes are for everyone who is experiencing a difficult situation ! with the exception of those who are not ! I would be grateful if someone could help me although Maxxer and other members have been good in providing advice to members. My situation is I got banned from TKMaxx 15 years ago and prosecuted through the courts after pleading not guilty. Recently I have been shopping in the stores and buying and returning items not for profit. I have returned a few items where I know the tags were incorrect as I swapped them but at a lesser value. i.e where I made a loss. ( I buy then I change my mind and sometimes I sometimes go outside the 28 days and they are usually the same brand) I recently went to a store to do a refund and was asked my name and address and postcode gave it. I did ask the assistant is this usual practice. He was young and informed me that its in case there's an issue with the refund or I may get a survey. The kid looked unsure and I asked him would I get the refund and he replied yes. I later confirmed this with him when I purchased an additional item. I contacted the store who confirmed this today that it is usual practice for any refund over £49.99 Looking at the threads I worried am I now on there radar ? I was not stopped but people have mentioned Police visits. My spinning at the moment and I would appreciate some advice please ?

I really have a lot of empathy with you wife. The first thing I would do is establish if they actually new what was on the CRB. This is easy who applied for it ? The second I would do is request a subject access request under the data protection act from the school and ask for all information including emails relating to the job itself. Schools usually undertake enhanced CRBs and on the disclosure it has a section on vulnerable adults and any recorded crimes. In your case none. Then I would suggest after you read the information contact UNLOCK a charity that offers advice. For your information convitions where the sentence is less that 2.5 years are spent after 5 years. The ROA is currently being reviewed as its a shambles. Tell your wife not to give up I have been in a similar position and it only make you stronger. It may be wise drafting a disclosure letter and their are companies that do this.

The only proffesion were references are obligatory are the Financial Services etc or were it forms the contract of employment. However in your case you were provided a reference by the old manager. There are circumstances where if a company has a culture of providing a reference for its employees and one particular person does not for no reason then their may be a case of discrimination. It may be worthwhile writing to her and if their is no resolution escalate it to Human Resources.
