thanks spider69 they have supplied a visual report sheet which must have taken all of 5 mins but they cannot supply a test certificate which should be available if testing has taken place.For the amount of money they have charged it should be quite detailed.The entrance hall only cosists of 2 light switches 2 lights and a boxed in mains cable.

I hope a lot more people write to Southwark about these charges .They charge for things but are unable to say what has been done or provide a test report/certificate.

I have contacted James Barber about this issue and he is going to take up my case.Our entrance hall has 2 light switches 2 lights and the main supply which is boxed in they therefore only did a visual report.That cost ?452 we therfore pay?226

although they have said the work has been done they are unable to send a report or a certificate. thanks

Has anyone had their service charge for 2012/13 which includes a charge for block lighting and electricity ?.This is really a charge for electrical testing and inspection of electrics in the communal areas.The council are insisting that this is a charge for leaseholders but at present are unable to tell me what was tested,the area involved is about 10'by 5' in a terraced house the charge is half of ?452 i.e.?226. Could anyone also tell me if it is easy to go to the Leaseholders Valuation Tribunal. Thanks
