Never done containers so excuse the possible silly question. Looking at a Job earlier. This came up.
All applicants must be registered to work off the terminals of UK container ports.
What does that mean?

Some you don’t need a card,

You need to be “adopted” by your company. So unless you’re an owner driver and set up a vbs (vehicle booking system) account, you can’t get one without a job. You can get one for London Gateway as an individual but they’re something like £30. But if you’re attached to a company with a vbs account they’re free

Was wondering a while back, is the Gateway card portable, in the same way as the RHIDES card, ei your new employer registers the card on there PoF account 
Southampton is easy, you go online watch a video, answer 12 questions about the video and then print of your window permit or get the boss to print and laminate your window permit.
I understand now that you have to pay for a card at Seaforth 
I haven’t been there for about 2 years so that’s only hear say

Might be around about way of finding out what experience you have, without asking the question direct

My understanding is the Gateway card is yours and should work with a different company. Just a free way of getting it initially through the firm. Felixstowe want to know who you work for when you pick a box up, hence company adoption. Although that information is already available through the vbs 
Well said company aren’t even emailing back but at least I’ve learnt something new
