Pangbourne police is a joke
Pangbourne police is a joke. If you expect Hot Fuzz PCs, look elsewhere. I reported a car blocking us on a road with expired MOT for 2 months? Did anything was done about it? Nooooo
I recommend using crimestoppers, so your identity is concealed therefore if any PC knows anyone who is a relative of them, you reported about, they cannot gossip.
The Police Are Scumbags!!!
My review are in relation to something that happened to me earlier this year. I was arrested for drink driving but I wasn't driving at the time I was arrested I had just left a pub that I had walked to and had a few drinks there and decided to leave and walk to another pub. I was walking minding my own business when this police car pulled up along side me and asked if I was Rob and reluctantly I said yes why you asking?
They said someone had reported me for drink driving so they took a breath test and I was over the limit so they arrested me and took me to the police station where I ended up spending a couple of nights before going to court and was bailed to attend court at a later date.
I attended court for a trial and was found not guilty so was so happy for the outcome so was able to give the middle finger to the police and the person who reported me for drink driving. I have never liked the police and hate them even more now because they arrested me for no reason in my opinion they are all a bunch of Scumbags!!!
Speeding in Chinnor
Chinnor residents have been asking TVP to tackle the problem of 24/7 speeding through our village for many years. Successive Traffic Surveys have shown that approximately 90% of motorists ignore the speed limit, with many driving 2 or 3 times the limit. Speeds of up to 90mph have been recorded. Despite repeated requests for action, TVP refuses to do anything about the problem. The Chief Constable, Jason Hogg, and the Police & Crime Commissioner, Matthew Barber, refuse to engage. Criminal driving doesn't appear to be a priority for TVP.
The Thames Valley Police I had dealings…
The Thames Valley Police I had dealings with 100% are corrupt. Incompetent and lazy initially but then lied about CCTV footage. Would definitely not bother reporting any serious crimes to Thames Valley, Dishonest to cover up their ineptitude. Cretins.
Thames Valley Police is the most…
Thames Valley Police is the most corrupt police in the UK after the Met Police. They take bribes for attacking innocent people, persecute the disabled. It's time to stop and purge their ranks. Evidence of their corruption has already been published on FB, they have already filed 2 complaints which have not been answered just like there is no court warrant. They are playing for time, no problem. Realize that it will cost you a lot of money and prison for you because that is what the US solicitor who will fly to the UK in March to take on you will apply for. A private plane will be rented for him, 6 hours flight from NY to the UK + living expenses because he will be staying in the most expensive hotel in the UK. You will pay for every day of his stay. You don't want to respond to 2 complaints so the 3rd will go to the IOPC in January 2025 and then we will all see each other in the Crown Court!
On 27/10/24 I returned to my vehicle…
On 27/10/24 I returned to my vehicle parked in Valpy St, Reading to find that I had been blocked in by a inconsiderate driver. I tried all the local buildings to see if it was anyone there but had no luck. There was the tightest of spaces to squeeze out but it was high risk & virtually impossible without someone else there to guide me.
By a stroke of luck I flagged down a passing police van and told them my predicament. One of the officers PC4653 said he would jump out and assess the situation, which he did and spent at least 15--30 minutes with me guiding me to & fro to try and exit without either damaging my vehicle or the other vehicle. After a while we needed myself driving, and a pair of eyes at the front as well as the rear of the vehicle so PC8655 also kindly assisted us.
Eventually we got the car out without damage.
I was prepared to sit & await the return of the other vehicle which literally could have been hours, but did not have too due to the amazing and extremely helpful actions of these 2 police officers.
Massive thanks to PC4653 who went above and beyond.
Biased And Incompetent
I wrote a complaint to them about the uncomfortable and unprofessional behaviour of one of their officers (Thames valley police Oxford), he came in to my room after speaking to my flatmate that physically assaulted me all because I opened the window in the kitchen when she was about to cook, my room was next to the kitchen and I wasn’t ready to “choke to death” as a result of the smell from her cooking, the officer listened to all her lies and that of her husband and the other people that lived there before they came to speak to me and the officer: the male one was a robot in my opinion, no form of emotions Ie heartless, the woman was actually human and this is the response I got “In relation to the other aspect of your complaint which related to Police attending the address when you lived at the time (117 Oxford Road, Cowley, Oxford), this attendance related to an altercation you had with another resident within the property. In your complaint to express your dissatisfaction with the male officer who attended, as he did not speak to you first, stating he was useless and unprofessional. You state he spoke to the other party first as they were downstairs. You feel he showed a lack of empathy when you explained your situation and that strong smells affect you due to your autism, you state he replied saying next time he would arrest you both and the smell will be worse there. Having reviewed the call log and occurrence I note that four officers attended this incident – 2 male and 2 female. In the call log, we received a call from another resident within the property that was not involved in this altercation. We then received a call from yourself after this first call. Who the officers spoke to on first entering the property does not define who they thought was the aggrieved party in this incident, and who was in the right and who was in the wrong. From what you have written I believe they spoke to the first person they came across. Given the number of officers who attended. It is likely that different officers spoke to all involved and any witnesses to establish what occurred to base their decision on. I have looked to see if any body worn video was saved from this incident as evidential, and there is none. As such I am unable to establish which male officer your dissatisfaction is with, and unable to determine if the service you received is acceptable or not. The officers are unlikely to recall this incident due to the amount of time passed and the number of people they deal with on a daily basis”, the officers are unlikely to recall due to the incident due to the amount of time passed and the number of people they deal with on a daily basis according to the person that responded Alison Robinson- no attempt to actually speak to the officers, I am 34 years old, I remember incidents from my childhood, this incident happened in 2023 so I am not buying that lie, since I came to the UK, i have experienced a lot of biases during certain altercations on the bus due to people not minding their business (my not wearing a mask is none of your business- talking about 2020/2021) and even other reports and that seems to happen a lot in this country: biases and favoritism, don’t bother writing a complaint to these people it will be a waste of time just like it is a waste of time even calling 101 because I called those individuals several times this year because my next door neighbour was being extremely loud and his behaviour was frightening and disturbing but they did nothing, I am originally from Nigeria and I expect this level of incompetence from police officers in Nigeria but the UK is not even any better, no surprise there, the officers should spend less time being woke (surprised I didn’t see her pronouns at the end of the email, below her name 🙄) and spend more time being professional, if it was a report about someone so called misgendering me even though that’s impossible because you can’t change your gender, the woman or whomever responded wouldn’t have been dismissive!!!! I reported to the police the incident over the weekend because I had requested my medical records recently and read them over the weekend and I saw a written report from a police officer over another an unrelated incident in which I was in a very low state emotionally and they carried out a welfare check and I didn’t agree with some of the things they wrote which made me remember this other incident that happened so I reported them both, I understood to an extent the reasoning behind the first report about the welfare check but in regards to this second report described above I don’t agree, I am actually given 0 stars!!!!

Thankyou...
I was arrested yesterday, totally blindsided by the situation,I was honestly devastated,so upset scared, nervous,I knew I hadn't done anything wrong but to be in the situation where it needs assessing was truly terrifying..
I was treat with respect, compassion,and dignity,and was home in 2 hours.. while I would never wish to go through this situation again,I am very thankful for all the officers who made the situation almost bearable.
More positive reviews are deserved.
Good people !!
I cant give it 5 stars because i was arrested. But as a black man with previous with the police these are good people. Izzy and ian didnt belittle me and simply did the job they needed to do and they had hearts , looked after me and consoled me. Honestly can't tell you how much of a credit these people are to the force. I will be a better person because of this moment. God bless and if we ever cross paths then there is a bev on me.
If I could give 0 stars best believe I would
Thames Valley Police MILTON KEYNES is absolutely awful the experience I have had with them has affected my mental health, I’m now on medication due to the lack of support from them and they have discriminated me due to my race and do not care about anyone’s wellbeing or safeguarding.
I have been subjected to unfair and biased treatment due to my race (Black) which has resulted in a failure to protect me from ongoing harassment and criminal behaviour perpetrated by my neighbours. Months after month I cried out for support and help my neighbours bullying me all caught on CCTV clear as day and police say there is not enough evidence but then when neighbours send videos of me doing nothing or defending myself after being assaulted the police choose to question me how backwards is the system!? I can call the police for the same reason as my neighbour would and they would not come out to me but they would come out if she called TVP racist to the max my neighbour calls police for no reason about 'doors slamming' and I had armed police turn up at my property but when I call because a death threat was made I was advised to call 101 despite the perpertrator being at my property threatening me.
The police officers are all young no life experience no knowledge whatsoever with how to deal with people.
I have been subjected to verbal abuse and criminal damage by my neighbours. Despite reporting these incidents to Thames Valley Police on multiple occasions, no meaningful action has been taken to address my concerns or hold the perpetrators accountable. Instead, it appears that the police have consistently taken the side of my neighbours, further exacerbating my distress and sense of vulnerability. I have to name and shame TVP because people can seriously hurt themselves without the right support that you are meant to be providing you are there to protect and serve and NOT to take sides. Threats to kill were made towards me on camera clear as day and the police did not act and just gave a fine of £60 or so and that was it I am scared to sleep in my own house someone has threatened to kill me and you know who the person is their family live next door to me the police told me ‘sleep where you want we cant control what you do’ after I am in tears of my life being taken the lack of care is disgusting I have never dealt with anything like this before awful police.
I received:
Verbal Abuse: I have been subjected to repeated and sustained verbal abuse by my neighbours. This abuse has included racial slurs and other derogatory remarks that have caused me significant emotional distress.
Criminal Damage: My property has been damaged on multiple occasions. Despite providing evidence and reports to the police, there has been no effective investigation or resolution.
Police Inaction: Despite my numerous complaints and the provision of evidence, the police have failed to take appropriate action. I feel that my concerns have been dismissed and that there has been a lack of thorough investigation into the incidents I have reported.
Bias and Discrimination: Police have shown bias in their handling of my case, siding with my neighbours and failing to provide me with the protection and support that I am entitled to under the law.
I have filed a complaint and my solicitor is also getting involved and I will be taking this to court or the highest I can to name and shame those who failed a member of society.
Be safe guys reach out to the right people and charities for support because the police don’t have our backs were on our own.
Thankyou to thames valley police for…
Thankyou to thames valley police for making the choice to 136 me on the 16th of july i nearly made the choice to end my life and you guys were brilliant thankyou so much. You really are great people im still here today all because of you thankyou. CW.
Service Improvement Needed
Poor conduct of investigations, prior to an arrest, which caused a huge impact on people involved
Despite severe fabrications made by the alleged victim there were no repercussions for wasting police time and resource
TVP claim to take domestic abuse seriously but handled the case in what can only be described as a shambolic mess
Survivors of domestic abuse are being wrongly arrested because abusers are falsely claiming to be the victim
It’s clear changes need to be made to TVP’s resource to maximise the benefit to the community and real victims of domestic abuse
Thames valley police
Thames valley police, in my opinion are corrupt, neighbours known to police, constant drug use, we complain about the smell, get told we can't do nothing if there in there garden! I thought drugs were illegal? I've been assaulted by this family, constant abuse, cars vandalised, friends assaulted, CCTV provided, guess what lost the tape!! Corrupt TVP
Nice to know 101 could not give 2 cares…
Nice to know 101 could not give 2 cares about the wellbeing or safety of the public. waited over 40 minutes for my call to be answered only to be told "well you got through it so get over it" Amazing service. I really hope I don't have to turn to them for anything more serious. Side note - apparently you can drive however you want regardless of speed limits, road safety or others on the road because the police don't have any interest at all. I'm shaking I'm so upset.
Disgraceful they are letting down the…
Disgraceful they are letting down the public daily, noone feels safe around the police, they are Untrained, No responsibility, cheap recruitment. They & their service are a mess.
Who do not uphold the law!.
It's beyond a Disgrace.
You are beyond a disgrace!.
Ps.. they've taken down Google reviews for this sh'hole as it was below 1☆ this is the first time i have ever seen this.
A Rottweiler is in a garden few doors…
A Rottweiler is in a garden few doors down. Barking at me (it’s 11pm). Also their gate was open. I was like no way. (I don’t know the people or the dog)
I walked the long way around to avoid walking past. By the time I get near to my house I can see it walking in the road. So good job I didn’t walk past!
I phone 101, the police officer repeatedly tells me just to walk home as I can no longer see it, it's probably gone back home.
This was so crazy. If the dog ran out the house and went for me, what would have happened. I hung up on him. Police are useless
I might as well have phoned someone working at ASDA
Thank you so much
After spending three days in custody at Maidenhead station I’d like to give all custody staff not just the officers a massive thank you they really looked after me and took my well-being to another level thank you and I have been in mental health secure units that didn’t treat me half as good thank you so much also big thank you to high Wycombe police officers that had to spend shifts around the clock keeping me safe from myself I’ve nothing but respect to you all huge thank you
police officers attitudes and training towards mental health is outstanding some NHS staff could learn a lot from our police officers also huge thank you to the officers with pips on their shoulders sorry I don’t know the rank titles but I do know from the officers looking after me that the very top ranks got involved trying to get me the mental health care I needed once again thank you so much
Disgusting outfit of narcissistic…
Disgusting outfit of narcissistic parasites that use coercion, threats and outright lies about procedures to railroad good and responsible dog owners into killing innocent dogs! Weaponiseing fear through threats of prosecution and social services! Extortion and blackmail are illegal yet these cretins think nothing of using such tactics repeatedly! You're an absolute disgrace the lot of you! You can tick all the inclusivity boxes you like with your new PC but you can't polish the poop that Thames Valley Police are, or any other force for that matter! We are coming for you LEGALLY and we are coming for you PROFESSIONALLY also! Corrupt lying manipulators!
