Wrong penalty charge

My 75 year old father in law attended a medical appointment and parked in the Derby road car park Woodford and paid for 2 hours and left after 1 hour. He received a parking ticket and when we appealed we worked out that he put a B for the final letter on his registration instead of a V which is side by side on the keyboard and because we appealed they increased the fine to £80. I let them know that the car parking code of conduct states that minor keying errors should not be charged and as they suffered no loss of income as he paid for a ticket they should not pursue the PCN. I asked for assistance from the local councillors and MP but no one could help. A friend of mine entered the wrong registration in an Epping Forest car park and explained that he entered his registration for his car instead of his wife’s and proved proof of payment and they overturned it. Why have have an appeal process and employ people to send out letters when you do not overturn a minor keying errors should.

Payment processor is dodgy

I just went through the process to apply for a dropped curb and got to the payment screen. Then when processing the payment, after I approved the payment on my banking app, the site failed to process the payment without any reason why. I tried with 3 different account / cards. All have the funds and all asked for approval on the app, which I did yet the site or their payment processor failed or timed out. It better not take the money from each account!! I.e. take payment 3 times.

Redbridge council are crooks

Redbridge council are crooks. They put up various different signage to catch people out. I've had parking tickets from Redbridge unlike any other borough. Full of crooks. They are the worst. Only recently they gave me a ticket for not paying correctly. The meter covered with something and the parking sign clearly stating to use pay by phone. I had almost 20mins left for my parking, when appealing they've said I didn't send the money to the correct place. Now who's fault is that...if the machine isn't working and has the same number as the roadside sign, who's fault is it? I can't wait to not have to do any kind of business in Redbridge, work or other. The council is corrupt and unavailable to speak to anyone. It's disgusting how they treat people. They've bot only taken my monet for parking but now want me to pay a fine...at the end of the day I've not parked up for free. I paid. Disgusting. Newham way better, had a similar issue and they said the signage wasn't clear, unknowing customers parking up getting caught out. Disgusting. I'm sick of Redbridge council behaving all high and mighty.

Lack of Duty of Care

Suspended benefit but not informed. Nothing whatsoever received. All for £4 a week difference because I was honest re amount going slightly up. So now no money for 4 weeks meaning using charged overdraft for rent. If I didnt have that I would be in default. This is appalling and suspect due to people not completing tasks quick enough so just suspending till they get round to it - but also not at all informing theyve done that ? Amazing. No surprise reviews so bad.

WORST COUNCIL AND BOROUGH EVER - SAVE YOUR COUNCIL TAX CONTRIBUTIONS FOR A BETTER BOROUGH

If I could rate them a minus I would......Zero assistance with noisy neighbours, refuse to assist with your problem but quick to update their website to highlight what you report is NOT classified as nuisance noise?!

If you are a decent, TAX PAYING citizen and report your neighbour - you get no resolution only for them to tell you they have followed a "process" which I might add is the most ridiculous process I have ever witnessed whereby, you can only report the noise on the weekends, they visit the noisy neighbour, then THEY decide if it's "noise" on their terms and what is deemed as adequate measures taken to not cause any disturbance. So they are the judge and jury for how you feel...!

Redbridge Council are work shy, with fabricated roles and departments trying to justify their existence. I have never seen a borough in fast decline.....the untold amount of properties for sale and calibre of residents left in the borough these days is very telling.

My advice - Move out of the Borough if you are a hard working property owner just trying to live a quiet life and don't want to be surrounded by unsavoury tenants as neighbours and their irresponsible landlords! and take that council tax payment to a borough that's worth your hard earned money.

Customer care

Whenever I call customer care, the lady speaks very rudely. We have to listen to what they say, and they don't want to listen to us.
