im fully CRB checked, comes in handy if you go for school contracts or nursery ones

[krave]

What does a Crb check show?

What if someone has a minor Criminal record? Im a bit confused about the whole process.

[Ste M]

it will show your criminal record for the last ten years i think, mine does, there is a new one coming out soon that you pay £80 for life for and you just sign a form each year to say there is no change apparantly. mine has a motoring offence on it from years ago but thats it

[krave]

I ended up getting a conviction over a year ago for common assult.
It was a absolute disgrace, and to be honest so was Hmcs.

So I am left with a worry about a Crb Check as obviously i wont be completely clear. Thus surely its not even worth getting one.
 

[Ste M]

why not?? if it showed up something more serious like assault of a kid id be worried but if anyone asks then you can explain it as a drunken night out and you were jumped but you gave as good as you got

[krave]

Wasnt even a drunken night out, I dont go out and barely drink due to the aggrivation or problems it can cause.
Do you show it to people often.

Just thought that saying im Crb checked and it not being completely clean sort of goes against the point?

Just to add, common assault is pushing someone. Ridiculous.

i showed it when i got my nursery job

[dazmond]

i went to price a job up after work on sat and its a big 3 bed semi around the corner from some well priced stuff.she told me last wc did them for £6 and the bloke before that £3-50!i said £12 she nearly fainted!the last windy wanted to do them every fortnight.anyway in the end i got it on a 2 monthly.i told her id drop the price to a tenner if i get 4 or 5 down her road.lots of windys near me but a lot are rubbish and try and rush the job with a couple of lads working with em.i prefer to sell my service better priced now, but  i have got quite a lot of 3 bedders on 2 estates(bout 150!) at £5-£6 and i still do well on them as their very compact.

im not too worried.ive been cleaning for years and im well trusted and have a good name in the area.its a case of better the devil you know than going for a complete stranger cos he,s a pound or two cheaper.

REMEMBER!why would you have some guy clambering round your house over a guy who is trusted and does a good job and is friendly?most of my custys wouldnt swap im sure as ive had lots of lads canvass my rounds over the years with no success!why now?

[Ste M]

daz, i priced up a job a couple of months ago, it was on an estate i only had 2 on, now i have over 10 on it, the lady said no as i priced it at 11. i feel thart she was expecting around 8, do you think its worth knocking back and explaing that now i have a few there i can drop my prices a bit ? or shall i just leave it as its not the done thing, bit unsure about this one

[dazmond]

up to you ste.i would still earn well at a tenner a throw if i got between 5-10 custys on there.i dont want to push my luck and be too greedy mate.an above average wc but not a rip off merchant is how im selling myself in these times!

best wishes

CRB checks and vetting employees for criminal records are 2 different things.

As I have a criminal offence from just over a year ago, Would it be worth me getting Crb checked?

 if i was you id not bother , i know its a minor offence but  JOE PUBLIC  wont listen whether its  peeing up an alleyway ,or a 15year  stretch in Parkhurst , best to keep quiet IMO .

[krave]

That is what I thought Tbh.

Never realised that It could cause me any problems so to say. Obviously was wrong.

sorry matt your totally right, its the form 99 i have that shows my criminal record. apoligies for any confusion

crb shows up things right back to juvinile

Vetted means checked out, not for anything specific. E./ G. I will vet you for your values means nothing. Vetted should be followed by some standard or something.

What I would do is phone and ash him for a quote to clean at an address which new did exist and tell him to collect at the end of the day. Tell him as you cannot take calls at work you will phone to get the quote and confirm a day to clean. Leed him up the garden path. Then in a few days latter give my mates wife to do the same just change the details. They will soon get tired of collect money from people that did not want a clean.
