Important notification

At Indigo we pride ourselves on the quality of our respondents.

Unfortunately a respondent has faked their identity now, twice, the first time we caught them and they did not attend. The second time they managed to slip through the cracks and attended.

When it came to processing payment we discovered that they provided someone else's banking details. As we were insistent according to our terms and conditions to only pay a respondent as per their application - full name and bank account, they then provided their real banking details.

We immediately recognised their name as someone who is not permitted to attend our interviews for various reasons.

This respondent will not get paid. This will hopefully encourage them not to apply for our future discussions.

In order to improve our back checking, it will now become necessary to submit a copy of any photo ID. We apologise that it has come to this, but clearly there is sometimes a bad apple in the pack.

NB: Do not send photo ID unless requested by Indigo Focus.

Thank you
