The East Dulwich Forum...what a fabulous resource...wouldn't you know it...I was literally reading this thread when Ms Electricity key scam artist knocked on the door! This is the second time this has happened in two months - we're on Landells Road. Anyway she was stopped in her story mid sentence by the fact that we know all our neighbours and knew exactly what she was up to. The joy of turning the tables on the scammer was delicious! My partner called the police on 020 8721 2447 (which is the safer neighbourhoods team number - which was on answerphone (what is the point!) and then called 999, while i followed her up the road. She ran off and got into a car - but not before i ran after her and got a good look at the guy driving and got the car number plate. Below are their description. Let's see what happens...


Her : Black, skinny, dreadlocks early 30's

Him : White, bald/crew cut mid 30's

Car Registration : W572UJB

Because .... ????

fantastic daisylets - Im really pleased to hear that you not only were not ripped off but got look at her accomplice and their car - I will be v interested to hear whether the police act on it. I posted the previous thread on this woman because I hated the way she exploited neighbourliness - well done!
I'll be interested to hear what happens. I'm a bit doubtful it'll get as far as a charge though. Ideally, it would be nice to have audio, written, and even video evidence, with a confirmatory fingerprint or two on a big clean pen or piece of paper.

That'll be after you've asked them to kindly write their name and address for you on a signed receipt for the loan. ;)

    • And from what I remember, she eventually cut the tea shop for a similar  reason to chandelier.  Chariot style buggies
    • Oh yes, it could have been about there, I can't remember exactly. At one point there seemed to be a load of pizza places opening on NCR. I vaguely remember the one we used to use was put out of business by another one which opened. Wasn't Grace and Favour's food offering more of a tea shop at the back of the actual shop? If memory serves the owner, whose name escapes me now, was one of the earliest people I know to move to Hastings. Which must now be crammed with South East Londoners 🤣
    • That Neal Street veggie cafe was great. Food For Thought ❤️
    • Hi Dogkennelhillbilly, You won't be aware that i proposed infill sites for housing in East Dulwich - the garages on Bassano Street and Henslowe that respectively became 1-4 Dill Terrace family houses and the 78, 80, 80A Henslowe Street family houses. These were council owned garages and it was frustrating how slow the council was to go from my idea to completion (roughly eight years). East Dulwich has some other vacant WW2 bomb sites I'm guessing that the private land owners have been sitting on.Owe for a land tax for vacant land.  WRT to the builders yard by East dulwich station. Southwark Council has an agreed policy the area should remain suburban 2/3 storeys maximum. But the approved scheme is 9 storeys of student accommodation. Very hard to put this genie back in the bottle. The council has recently publicly stated lower ratios of social housing will be required. I will be amazed if the developer doesn't submit another application now they have the 9 storeys approved but with significantly less social housing. The less social housing the higher the land values. The higher the land values the less social housing viability reports state are possible.  If we really want to increase home supply - Southwark have over 6,000 empty homes. Vancouver charges a low % of the value of empty homes and rapidly eased this problem. Parts of Wales have introduced under Article 4 planning permission is required for second homes seeing within 12 months a dramatic decrease in property prices. Southwark Council have Article 4 requirements - why not add this one? It takes National political will to solve this AND regional and local authorities such as the second home council tax premium and these being used promptly.
