Am I being held back unfairly?

Thanks alot.

So frustratingly RDO says he can't find previous application.

I have been back on emails and have confirmation email and also can see on the Google forms what specifically I selected.

I did tick the "do you want to be considered for womens pathway" as I didn't understand at the time . Not sure if that's where the confusion lies and I actually applied for women's pathway.

Annoying that RDO isn't one to answer phone so it's many emails back and forth.

If you'd successfully applied for promotion you would have had to pay the fee, so should have a record of that payment on your debit / credit card statement.

Well done on challenging. I refer this back to the word 'fairness' on your original point. Nothing is fair. You're reliant on people (including yourself) and people are flawed.

You've done exactly the right thing. ***** footing around the issue does nothing but encourage further inaction and delay. Personally I'd go and see the RDO in person, but that's just me. But keep your written comms clear, to the point & polite. Always 'look forward to your response'.

Once you have you promotion application sorted then be very proactive yourself. If you have free days then write to leagues and tell them you're available, even in neighbouring counties.

No point waiting to see if things run 'fairly'. Go and make it happen.
