Hi all,


Just wanted to flag a burglary on Dunstans road today - we discovered it this evening. Waiting for the police to arrive but please be aware there are thieves operating in the area!


If anybody can advise if they saw anything out of the ordinary - we think it may have been c.4pm- we are on dunstans in between Goodrich and Upland road.


Thanks

Let's just say in such a manner for us not to notice until after we had been home for an hour- they stole money, jewellery and laptops- quick and easy things to carry.


Aparantly it's common in the area and on the up- they are doing it at a time when people are out in the afternoon and then diving in quickly and grabbing easy things.


Best thing for people to do is triple locks and alarms and be aware even if you are home alone in the day especially.

jah, so close to my home...


i was walking my dog up to the hill before four but i only saw kids coming back from goodrich school and some guys doing refurbishment works at one of dunstans road houses, nothing suspicious


EDIT - i need to correct myself, dunno why i thought it was between goodrich and underhill... if you are between goodrich and upland - so just next to dawson hill - the only thing, that maybe wasn't especially unusual, but might be helpful - there were two guys (in their twenties to thirties) sitting in the car parked near s david's mansion, just behind this silver sport car with broken/damaged rear spoiler/wing. i noticed them as they're laughing when i was passing by. however i couldn't recognised them nor even say what was the make of the car. I noticed only that guy in driver's seat was black, that's all. but if the're strangers or live localally - i got no clue, i live here to short to recognise people, except these few i met in the park...

Thanks Miss P- we will be doing that from now on but never felt the need before as felt so safe! Would recommend everyone do the same although we were double locked so they do find a way!



NowandHere- thanks for the feedback although the police think they were on foot and quick win opportunists. Good observations!


Be safe x

Sorry to hear about your break-in Rose. I think someone has had a go at our back door lock - it looks like one of the pins has dropped inside the lock and we are no longer able to open the door with the key. Can't be sure until the locksmith comes round, but we are only three roads away from you Rose and it seems a bit of a coincidence.
Sorry to hear of your burglary, we had Victim Support round today fitting a bar to our door and a chain - they're stopping the scheme on 31st March so if you're wanting a visit from them make sure you book them in soon! Wonder if it's the same scum who did our house a few weeks back :(

Please tell me your last comment was a joke!

So far so good, we haven't been burgled in this house ( Oakhurst Grove) for many years since fitting a chubb 5 lever lock to the front door, and then making sure that it gets locked with that, both on exit and on entry.

Back door has no access for the key from outside, only from inside. Maybe something to think about?

    • Nothing to do with the tories overspending whatsoever eh! Blame the last 10/11 years of blatant mismanagement, incompetence and willful deceit on the poor bastards that were left with the fall out of a complete car crash tory government.   One PM after another falling on their sword. Open corruption and piss taking throughout covid and a legacy of huge debt and destruction yet in your view it will be labour's 4 years in power that bankrupts us in 2029.  Another one that must think people are blind and stupid.  Rejoice rejoice. It's a pity he and his fellow clowns were completely annihilated at the ballot box. I mean they were doing so well after all 🙃🙃
    • 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.
