Please be vigilant as you are walking home in this area over the coming days...


At 4pm today I was 100m from my home, listening to music on my iPhone when two men on a moped/motorbike mounted the pavement behind me and snatched the phone out of my hands before riding off towards Lordship Lane/the A205.


I've reported the crime to the police/mobile phone company/insurers and I also feel stupid for not being more vigilant/allowing my phone to be in plain view outdoors, but at least I'm not harmed.


Please do look after yourselves and your phones as I imagine the same people will probably be trying a few sweeps of the area.

At around 4.30 pm at the junction of Frogley road and Lordship Lane a lady was on her phone outside of the shop I work in and two guys on a black scooter type motorbike drove onto the pavement and tried to snatch the phone from her hand ,luckily enough she managed to hang onto her phone. I called the police and reported it and there is a good chance they would be seen on the shops CCTV. She was shaken but unharmed thankfully . Seems to be a regular thing happening in the area ,so please be vigilant .
Thanks for this Ozzy - it sounds like the same guys. I hope no-one else was affected. The police are coming to see me on Sunday so I'll mention this too. If anyone else has experienced anything like this recently, please PM me and I'll forward this information on to the police as well.

Sorry to hear this, glad you're unharmed and no you're not in the least stupid - 100% of the blame is on the perpetrators.

    • Where did I say he did a good job? Yup and Corbyn was very close to Len McCluskey and funded by Unite wasn't he...they're all as bad as each other... Labour have to purge their party of the far-left - they're a disaster. Allan Johnson summed it up so well on election night in 2019....  
    • Thank you for the detailed advise @trinidad It is definitely damage we are concerned about. I don’t think Evri would agree to pay the bill to fix our gate or letter box if they were to be damaged as a result of their delivery drivers helper. Our doorbell can be heard from outside when rung so we don’t quite believe the aggressive simultaneous door/letter box banging is necessary. It can be quite a shock it is done very aggressively.  I’ll definitely action the steps you’ve kindly provided along with a phone call tomorrow. I do sympathise with the role drivers have and how busy they are, which is why we tried communicating directly with her but sadly we haven’t succeeded 
    • What outcome would you like? Disciplinary action? Not to have the driver back? Retraining? I know there is alot of pressure on drivers to deliver within a set day. if he slams the gate, is it evidence he is causing damage, or is the noise a irritant to yourself? You could put a sign up or buy a signing asking to close the gate gentle???? can you hear the door bell from the door? he might be ringing, not hearing and therefore knocking. In trhe notes section of the be livery page, there is a note section, although there is not 100 per cent these notes would be read as these drivers are constantly rushing.  I did a google search for you, i found this and you can try the envri website Contact Us | Evri   To complain to Evri, you can follow these steps: Contact Customer Service: Call Evri's customer service at 0330 808 5456 for assistance with your complaint.    1 Write a Letter: Address your complaint to Capitol House, 1 Capitol Close, Morley, Leeds, West Yorkshire, LS27 0WH.    1 Use the Official Website: Visit the Evri complaints page on their official website for detailed instructions on how to submit a complaint.    2 Email or Call for Specific Issues: For issues like missing or damaged parcels, you can email or call 0800 988 8888, which is free to call.    1 These methods will help you effectively communicate your concerns to Evri.   My driver is called anthony, he is brilliant to be honest. I cant fault him.
    • When I have more time and energy, I will look up the actual number of votes cast for each party in that election, rather than the number of seats won. I'm interested to see that you apparently  think that  Boris Johnson did a good job of "leading the country through Covid." Is your memory really that short? I won't stoop to calling Johnson and his cronies names in the way that you seem to think is appropriate for left wing politicians. At least the left wing politicians have some semblance of morals and a concern for people who aren't in some over privileged inner circle and/or raking in money for themselves on the back of an epidemic. I'm not going to open a can of worms on here  by commenting on the disgraceful so called "purge".
