Bravo persistence works

[sarcasm]All credit for this should really go to WBC![/sarcasm]

street scene are shite.

Street Scene have always been really good when I've phoned them (at least 10 times) over the last few years. Every time Mathew Street in Seacombe has been full of rubbish, 3 piece suites, beds, bins kicked over etc, they've always sorted it within 48 hours. Even when the only street lamp in our road was out in the atrocious winter in 2010 they fixed it in 2 days.

I know I've probably been lucky but you've got to speak as you find

My beef with them atm is poth holes in roads. They haven't got a jar.

I agree with you about that!

Fix My Street works.

What got me was that I reported two streetlights out in my road. They were next to each other, and I got one log number from Streetscene. Yet they still sent out a crew on two separate occasions to fix each one. wtf?!

You should of seen the size of the hole in Withens lane outside the saddle pub, it's been filled in with Tarmac only a few days ago and has already started collapsing again.
