Blackburn with Darwen Borough Council

Rude, apathetic, incompetent on so many levels, omnishambles of a council. Every single encounter has been a stress inducing and achingly slow process that usually gets somewhere after the third attempt.

Its now been over a year since I initially reported a blocked drain off of Bolton Road that floods out onto the main road. A further 4 emails have been sent with replies to some stating itd be done by June 2022 at the latest, still has not been cleared and now no replies either. For the amount we all pay this council, the service is very poor, common theme across Labour run councils.

What an absolute joke this Council is, I've complained numerous times about double yellow line parking the council do nothing about it. You Blackburn Council are as ignorant as these residents who continually park on double yellow line. I've sent images and you do nothing about it, Disgusting!!!!! Very frustrating when I abide by the law.

Recently had to speak with hobbie, very difficult to get through to speak to him, but managed To track him down after a few calls to the town hall - he works on the gypsy sites, I had to complain about some stuff that had been going on. Hobbie was happy to listen and responded fast and sorted the problem. I wish all the council staff were as efficient. He has since followed up to make sure nothing else had gone on.

Sent a email adv of overgrown vegetation and rubbish dumped on some vacant land. Got back to me saying it's private land and will contact them. Nothing happened and its still the same.
