I really thing this is something councillors should be getting involved with as everyone is frustrated by it

You're frustrated by it - that doesn't mean everyone else is.

I don't think bickering with private phone companies to improve service for the residents of leafy Dulwich Village (oh no! My garden is so big I'm too far from a mast!) is a good use of councillors' limited time. Better they stick to things directly relevant to Southwark's remit, like social care, libraries, parks, youth activities and persecuting a neo-Stalinist War on Motorists.™

The council's remit also covers planning applications. It is  planning refusals for new masts that has resulted in the not-spot in the area. It's not just DV but a much wider area.

If you do have mobile phone do you know  which mast you are getting your signal from and based on your handle, I'm guessing that with the DKH handle you connect to the one at Champion Hill. Lucky you!

The networks don't accept there's a not spot.

What applications and refusals in Dulwich Village are we talking about specifically? The only one mentioned so far was last year - and the reasons for binning it seem pretty reasonable.

Another earlier refusal was the one near the junction of Half Moon Lane and Village Way.

Is that the 82 foot tower above the school... almost a decade ago... and outside Dulwich Village? Or has there been another one since then?

But don't let your prejudice blinker your opinion...ahem

 

The councillors spent time lobbying to retain the ATM at the Post Office so the Village'ites could withdraw their gold bullion - so if they can do that they can represent the needs of their constituents by lobbying to improve mobile provision for those who live, work and play in the area. But let's hope they do a better job because of course the day after the photo op saying they had saved the ATM it it was removed.....much to the embarrassment of the councillors….

    • I didn't say anything was "a fact". I said it was "hardly likely" 🙄 Do you seriously think someone would go out of their way to harm or kill an unusual animal? Even assuming they ever actually saw it? And then you deleted your post. Did you not want people to see what you had said?
