Dear folks,


Please can anyone help, we've been living in the same house for 2 yrs & 6 months. And this is what Wates consider as wear & tear. Which of-course, as you will see from the list how ridiculous it is.


When trying to appeals against what's on the list, Vince Orlando (Property Manager). Called us back, and was well let just said he is the most obnoxious person I have ever encounter in all the years of letting.


So we've both decided to cut our lost with this fruitless situation, still we would like to share our bad experience with you all. And hope you would never be left feeling under cut.


Merry xmas.

    • I'd actually go the whole hog and do a fondue, we all remember them fondly from parties in the last century or trips to Switzerland.  As long as it is cheese, not chocolate, urghhh
    • Gosh, that all sounds so familiar!  Southwark are constantly holding up their Outdoor Events Policy as proof of process, but then constantly allow exceptions when things aren't quite done correctly. Point in case, Gala's licence application - extract from the Consultation Findings Report - "The GALA team formally submitted their application to hold GALA 2025 to the council on the 7 October 2024. It is usually a requirement that applications for larger scale events are submitted with a minimum of 9 months to process them, but discretion can be applied if there are mitigating circumstances. 8.4 of the Outdoor Events Policy clarifies that processing applications received outside the stated lead-in times is at the Council's discretion. In this case: • The council were aware that Assembled Gala were preparing an application for the event to take place in 2025 in advance of their submission date, with operational discussions already taking place • GALA festival has been taking place in Peckham Rye Park since 2018 – less time is needed regarding event planning than if it were a new event • The GALA team already have a Premises Licence in place for this event (this is a pre- requisite for the Event Licence to be issued), so no time needed to be factored in for a premises licence application and decision-making process" So despite the fact that there would need to be major planning decisions due to the change of site access, they didn't think Gala needed to adhere to the same rules as everyone else? Makes me wonder what other rules they are exempted from... On a similar note, has anyone received a Resident Communication letter, containing the contact details for issues? We haven't, and we live directly opposite the site on Colyton Rd. They were supposedly distributed on 29/4...
