Kenoco,
I find hard to believe what you said ....
Just wondering if all this is just some of the thousand stories going around Ryan
What do you mean by "history problems"? I think you mean the impossibility to check references in UK.
I flew in the UK few years back, didn't live there for years before ... and even so I had, like everybody else, my security pass as was there for a little while and previous employers within the EC were given as references.
Something else to point out is the fact that I think that no airline could possibly be willing to get in troubles for their employer giving innapropriate security passes....
By the way, there's another thread going on about the same topic, let's merge them
Ciao
