The question is.........should these salespeople be checked?

I personally think the answer is yes.

I have never had a criminal conviction for anything - why should i be working alongside people who have convictions?

It is about protecting customers and the vulnerable.

Just to let you guys know i am going to resign and inform the press if Virgin do not address this.

This forum has allowed me to air my views but if a company is not willing to look after its customers interests do i really want to work there anyway. I will go and work in utilities (gas and electric) at least there i will be able to hold my head up high and say to customers "I have been background checked" to give them confidence in who I really am!
Bye -bye then. People make mistakes in life, pay for them and then move on. Seems like you think they should be branded for life "I made a mistake in the past". Hope you never make a mistake, haven't got a speeding ticket have you? A parking ticket?. Naughty criminal, better resign immediately. Oh hang on, you're going anyway.

sorry, but have you heard the phrase "put up or shut up?". If you are *that* concerned then why on earth *wouldn't* you speak to HR. It's your duty man, so get on with it. In fact if you believe what you are saying is true and you don't report it, then if anything does happen you will be liable for the results.
