I also just emailed them and can confirm that I was rejected. I applied towards the end of December and wrote the WG a the beginning of January. They updated my application on January 18 (which I saw) and they sent me a screenshot of a PFO from that same day. I did not receive the email and it was not in my junk inbox. May be worth sending a quick email.
My application updated on the same day so this isn't looking good for me either! How did you word the email?
Dear DLA Piper Graduate Recruitment Team,
I hope this message finds you well.
My name is xxxx l and I applied to the Summer Internship Programme in December 2020. I wanted to know if you have a ball park timeline of when I can expect to hear back, or if I have possibly missed a rejection message. I checked my junk inbox and have not spotted any such messages.
Thank you for taking the time to read this message. I look forward to hearing back from you soon.
Kind regards,
Ah thanks! I'm deffo going to email them, they must have an issue with emails going through
Mine was updated on 7th December so I am 99% certain that mine will be a PFO 😅
I have the same issue, was updated multiple times, the last time on the 20th of Jan and now I can no longer withdraw my application. I suppose that not being able to withdraw the application means that we should have received a PFO? Can someone clarify this?
Their exact response :
"I can see from our systems that we emailed you on 20 January at 6.40pm to let you know that unfortunately we would not be progressing with your application on this occasion. There seems to be an issue with our emails reaching gmail accounts which we are currently looking into."

You are right, I emailed them on the 8th of January and they told me that they are still going through applications, is it too early to email again?
If it is updated on your portal, i think that means they did send you an email. Their emailing system is not working properly i guess.
