Appalled by Lambeth Council

Appalled by Lambeth Council I have power of attorney for my 90-year-old godmother who has been a Lambeth resident for forty years and is now in a home I paid her council tax in full in July and heard nothing more from Lambeth until today when representatives of Equita the debt collectors arrived at MY flat not in Lambeth to demand payment I called Lambeth and talked to a nice representative who admitted this was a mistake What a waste of taxpayers money what incompetence what stupidity

Appalling council

Appalling council They will only collect your rubbish and recycling if it s wrapped in gold and their little royal highnesses can be bothered to lift their arms and pick it up I m so sick and tired of their incompetence it s driving me insane They are obviously not too worried about Health and safety to charge hundreds of pounds in council tax for crappy results Avoid at all costs

Lambeth Council are a disgrace - Oct 2023 to dateongoing

Lambeth Council are a disgrace Official complaints constantly reported Been chasing six months now for monthly invoices care package from Care services via Lambeth Council Social worker since October 2023 failed to setup totally incompetent service always Another Social Worker now dealing and STILL waiting Staff never return calls to ansa messages or texts USELESS Buck gets passed on half-jobs Lambeth subcontract and don t manage Another example they renovate houses and leave them vacant for three years No one checks anything

They though my Mum 66 and her carer out

They though my Mum 66 and her carer out of temporarily accommodation after 3 months making us homeless and were 2320 12 in credit on the rent To add insult to injury they refused to refund what was in credit and we been sleeping in the car for the last 3 days we have no money or financial support from anyone we don t know what to do I take my mum to work with me at night I work nights I m really out of options and Lambeth council is the worse

POOR PERFORMANCE

The contact number on their sent out post threading legal action just rings and rings and rings and rings and rings Nobody answers the phone Instead you just hear recorded messages how great it is in Lambeth and how they don t tolerate abuse on the phone They don t realise what frustrations they are actually responsible for This experience has been repeated on different occasions and on different days

Recently registered to pay council tax

Recently registered to pay council tax as a landlord Sent bill and tried to log in to pay today Got pop up stating account revoked please call 0345 etc Went onto the payment website which allowed me to proceed but didn t pay because of the earlier msg and not wanting to have money floating around in lambeth s non existent accounts system My home Council tax so easy to pay no drama registering for accounts which are then revoked Lambeth Council is appalling always has been and always will be Now have to go through the phone circus listening to endless messages praising themselves when they are repeatedly warned by Government for their inept procedures

Could not agree more with the negative

Could not agree more with the negative views on here and everywhere else My partner and i had lived in a large owned property in Clapham and would go so far as to say that Lambeth council is one of the main reasons we decided to move out of the area I would list the issues experienced at the hands of these incredibly inept people but it would take too long to list and they have taken far to much time up over our 9 years there to bother much anymore but just to say that anyone thinking of moving to anywhere within Lambeth Council district maybe do some research and seriously consider whether that would be the right move to make and to anyone currently living within it my sympathies

Joseph Osagie a Housing Adviser at

Joseph Osagie a Housing Adviser at Resident Services London Borough of Lambeth is absolutely unprofessional in every single way he has tantrums and anger outburst if you remind him of your human rights or housing laws and shouts at the top of his voice veins popping DONT TELL ME HOW TO DO MY JOB you can almost smell his breath through the phone unhinged behaviour it s worrying and concerning He ignores all laws and legal rights acts that involve disabilities and tells mentally ill people that they re fine and they re not mentally or disabled despite the mentally ill and disabled person showing him their disability diagnosis and PIP ect he is absolutely insane
