Yes, there is a scenario that fits as well:

The last set of new front discs and pads were a different make of pad to the first 2 attempts. So, it could be that that the front set-up was fine and it's just coincidence that the problem with the rear pads occured around 3K miles after the front ones were last fixed.

The old rear pads look like a make that begins 'Ape---' but I can't make the full word out. Ring any bells with anyone?
