How accurate was time scale police said for devices to be checked
Notifications OFF
Hi,
Just wondering how long devices took to be checked compared to what police initially said on day of the knock.
Police told us takes 6 months, but I did hear someone being told 1-2 years.
Just wondering if they say whatever, or whether there's actually some truth/ estimation in what they tell you depending on actual waitig times in the area?
Hope it makes sense and hope you're all okay as can be xx

We had knock in July and was told by oic it could take 'up to 6 months'. Ss told us they have cases that have been under investigation for over a year. My son has been asked to go in for interview next week so I can now only assume that the searches have been completed.
Was told 12-18 months :( it feels a very long time to go.
It does :-( How far along are you?
We were told 6 months, we are 5 months along.
We were told 6 months, we are 5 months along.
I was told 1-2 years and it's taken less than 6 months, the device was checked and graded by the OIC rather than being sent external. Now waiting for CPS.
We were told 12-18 months on day of knock. Now at 21 months and counting.
When we got the knock we was originally told 3 months to have it searched amd have someone go through it all. But they sent it back off twice for more Indepth searches but we was told of cases taking years. Ours took 18 months to get to court. It wasn't a quick process at all. Good luck xxx
Got told two years and it was 4
For devices we were told 6to9months, it took 10months to be called back for a 2nd interview, so not too bad as some of the others here!
Thank you all, its mad how much the timescales vary!
