Horrible to work with. Utterly unacceptable methods. Extremely difficult to contact and do not reply to emails. Conflicting information each time you finally manage to get through to them. Avoid at all cost.

I was contacted by Procius for a reference check, which they have received. Since then i have had none stop emails and phone calls about the references asking for more information.
The information they want is from over 5 years ago and something i simply don't have.
It's worth noting the company they are talking about has already provided the reference to them.

They keep sending me the same generated email over and over again. I've reply them months ago and still they haven't completed the vetting. Useless company with ignorant staff.

I was recently checked by procius and unfortunately i have to say, the feedback on normal answers from my superior and the contacts i had given are really embarrassing! I got them all and e.g. a colleague answers the question how long we know each other with 7 years and gets this mail. "The reference we have received does not confirm the capacity in which you know XXX. Please would you kindly confirm if you know XXX on a social basis or only in a professional capacity"??

If there was -5 I would give them -10. The worst company ever. They are so slow that probably my 7y.o. son can do better job than them.

It was a nightmare working with them.

The reference process took place more than 10 month, even when I was already working for my actual company. It seemed that was everything fine, I started normally my new job with my airport ID, but they reappeared after 7 months with their several automatic email, requests and calls.
I've never experienced so much incompetence, defefenetly 1 star because I can't review even worst.

The process was very slow and stressful. Took them 7 months to finish it. 7 months!! I often called Procius and got the wrong information about missing documents, because I spoke to different people each time I called. The same day I received two calls with contradictory information. Documents were filled with wrong dates so they forced me and my friends to fill out the documents all over again. It was a nightmare. Almost lost my job because of this.

Well where do I even start with this procius malarkey?

This started 20/3/2019

Even a 1 star is to much for them.

The incompetency of their staff is absolutely unacceptable. Having a month before I even started my training for them to start getting my work references together is more than enough time to do it. 2 months later I’m still no where, bearing in mind I had finished my training and had now got my wings. 2 weeks later I finally went into quality control. I thought things were starting to look up but I thought to soon! In 2 days I had been pulled out of quality control 4 times because they cannot do there job properly!

This is how bad it got...
“Unfortunately we can’t accept that reference because it was sent on an admin email”

“This reference doesn’t contain the company stamp so we can’t accept that” (bearing in mind I had told them 8-9 times the company had gone into liquidation there it no longer has a stamp)

“We’ll get that done for you today”
(A week later it still wasn’t done and I was in the same situation)

They waited to send the reference request to the company’s 3-4 times before even thinking of what do do next if they didn’t reply. Wasting more and more of the time I wasn’t going to get paid from my new job.

Just as it was going into quality control I had an email saying they were missing the last back page of my HMRC tax statement. Bearing in mind I had sent that to them 2 months prior to them sending me this. I was not happy. The lack of incapability was becoming a joke.
I told them I didn’t have it and I only sent to them what the HMRC had sent to me.
The response was “well when we send this off to Jet2, it may get sent back to us because you can’t agree with the conditions we have asked for”. I could not do anything about this.

Finally on 7/6/2019 I got dispatched to Jet2.

I cannot begin to express how much this downgrade of a company has brought so much emotional distress to my life in the past few months.

A dream job ended up turning into a nightmare!
