Hi,


We've got a bit of an issue at our block on Forest Hill Road whereby the binmen/ Veolia seem to have forgotten about us over the last few weeks, and our communal bins are piling up (I've attached a picture from outside our flat this morning). I've flagged the issue to Southwark 3 times last week, and they just said the bin crew couldn't get access. I very much doubt this as I've tried the code to the bin area several times and it's working fine (I've also reiterated it to Southwark numerous times). But in either instance, it's a block of 50 flats so I don't understand why they couldn't just buzz a flat to be let in?


I was just wondering whether anyone on here had a more senior contact at Southwark/ Veolia that this could be raised to, as it's becoming quite disgusting and there are obviously risks of rodent/ hygiene hazards.


Thanks!!

I would suggest PM-ing either Renata Hamvas or James Barber (I think it's more likely in Renata's patch) - both have proven excellent in pursuing constituents' interests (and, whatever your politics, deserve huge praise for doing so and for keeping this forum informed, which neither are obliged to do).
I would suggest the Council website, it is as easy to access as EDF and has a dedicated link to Report It pages and simplistic tick box form to tell them of a missed collection and type eg recycling. Very simple and effective and leaves elected representatives to get on with more important things.
Hi Zelig, thanks for the message, and yes I did that 11 days ago. I was simply asking for a more senior contact to escalate what is becoming quite a serious environmental issue to. Renata has been in touch and is being very helpful. Thanks for the suggestion....

    • Anything that improves the front of the station has to be a good thing. Opening up the square in front is a superb idea, it will show the beauty of the architecture of the station, just as they did at Kings Cross when they ripped out the monstrosity of the 1960's frontage and now the station gleams. People probably go there to see the beauty of it. Now wouldn't it be good if once opened up and cleaned up, people visited to see how wonderful it then looks. I guess there is a generally lack of trust that the station square will open by the end of next year, HOWEVER, when the current frontage is removed and the square is opened up as it originally was it will look grand.  
    • i) You must think Liebour can do no wrong, can lie through their teeth and yet you appear to believe every word Starmer and his stooges utter. ii) More assumptions made by you, well guess what you're utterly W R O N G, seems like that's your first trip, just as I predicted.  iii) and you won't be blaming me old man. Shockingly, I actually have to agree with some of the points you've raised.  Reform are the relics of BNP and UKIP, both detestable so add them together and you get an even worse result which is Reform that the UK can do without. 
    • Farage has done nothing but divide and diminish this country, all in the name of his ego and his bank balance. Brexit has made us poorer and has damaged our influence in the world. He supported Trump who is directly threatening our interests and he supported Liz Truss' disastrous budget. He has done his best to ensure our country's decline and now people too proud to admit their mistakes and the deleterious impact of UKIP / The Brexit party / Reform Ltd are again voting for him to finish the job / nail down the coffin lid. Yes, he is a plastic patriot.
    • You clearly don’t know Peckham Rye station there are lifts but they’re not available to the public. Actually, they were  briefly made available when the art exhibition was on.  Priorites again.
