Under review still here too, Birmingham, did the tests the day it landed cause I'm a girly swot 
On a slightly different subject. Does anyone know how the clean air charge works when your a driver for Birmingham New street? Seems abit rubbish to jave to pay everyday your at work. And of course can not rely on trains on the shift pattern

What is better to see under review or pending?
None of us actually know haha. The only assumption is that if its pending then they are looking at it and to expect a response soon

I think the whole point of a clean air charge is to keep vehicles out (I don’t necessarily agree with their implementation). I don’t work for CC, but I can’t imagine there’d be an “agreement“ in place that would allow certain commuters in for free and not others.

No there isn't. You need a Euro 6 diesel or a Euro 4 petrol. There are no exceptions for railway workers

How many positions are they hiring per depot?
I get it. just expensive if your working 5 days a week. And with paying twice for one shift sometimes. Ahh well

Have you checked your car to see if you will actually pay or not? As minilad said above if it's euro 6 diesel (2015 onwards)or 4 petrol (2005 onwards) you don't have to pay, you can check here

Something like that being exempt but a modern car having to pay is what makes the whole “clean air” scheme a comedy.1.7M views · 10K reactions | (sent in) Clean air zone fine incoming | Brumz Updates

It’s under review that comes first, if my application status is anything to go by.
I done my personality & spatial ability tests last Thursday.

It's Under Review then Pending, but people who didn't get through haven't commented on what it says on the website for them
I've been doing a bit of digging in my boredom since it's pouring down outside. Disclaimer in that, please don't take any of this as fact and is just me speculating based on the careers website.
From what I can find, those whose status have changed to 'Pending' - This can either mean you have moved to the next automated step in their system, so presumably they are reviewing test results and sifting these. So for Newcastle folks who have moved, they have basically started processing that batch of applicants. It doesn't mean you have passed or failed, just simply that the system is doing something with that candidate.
Those of us still 'Under Review' - they haven't looked at these yet or started the sift process.
