    DLA Piper Application

    I'm in the same situation. I'm giving it until 5th Feb since one of their emails stated that we should expect an update by then. I'm just nervous because of the whole problem reaching gmail accounts!

    That's probably not a bad thing, they might just not have reviewed it yet! Mine was updated the other week and haven't received anything so am feeling nervous haha - though I refuse to believe it's a rejection until I get that email :)

    Just re-checked and mine also just updated with no email! Looks like they must have reviewed ours now. Wonder whether they have managed to fix the issue with reaching gmail accounts yet?
