I'd go straight to the local paper. Name and shame. Might well be others in same situation.

Hopefully Mary, I’m going to have a nice relaxing day in the garden tomorrow sick of feeling down and miserable. Thanks will keep you all posted Janette x

Hi Janette
Really hope you get some action in form of start date by end of the week.
Best wishes
Mary

We got a response from the council earlier this afternoon and they said they’ve given the original builders 2 days to come back with a quote for the work 🤔 we’ll see but I’m not holding my breath 🤨 thanks for all your responses love Janette x

Janette so sorry that you still have to fight for this. Best of luck with the press, let us know if what the press can come up with, and we'll have fingers crossed for progress. Love, Heather x

Nettie Hi I echo what others have said. I work for a L.A. and the minute we get a councillor enquiry we drop everything else and prioritise.
Sounds like you've been given the run around big time! Shame you're left with the only option of the press. Hope it's resolved soon 👍

[Nettie]

Thank you both 🤗 xx

Oh Janette.. how awful for you ! You must be so fed up and that's putting it mildly !

Its totally unacceptable that you have to contact the media and forfeit privacy to draw attention to this situation.. shocking ! I think I'd do the same, however.

Sending you big hugs ,
Love Debbie x

Hi Lynne they are a joke, Phil has been in touch with everyone including our local MP the next step is the media. I was completely housebound until a good friend made me a small ramp in the back so I could at least get in the garden, I have to use next doors path if we have to go out anywhere 🤦🏼♀️ Glad you got sorted Lynne 😊 I can’t help feeling it will be too late time is running out 🥺 xx

[Lynne K]

Oh Janette, what ridiculous Council you have. I went through similar when we came to this flat. Our wet room wasn’t usable because water ran into our hall every time the shower was on. The front door and ramp were too narrow. This was supposed to be an adapted ground floor flat. Anyway I exhausted my patience ringing the repairs department, started emailing higher ups. Eventually put an official complaint in stating that I would next be contacting my MP and the local paper. In the end I was contacted by the most senior manager of the repairs department (he’s an ex Councillor so knows his way around) and he was amazing. He got all jobs done, gave me his card and said if I needed anything else then contact him directly.

Those who shout louder tend to be heard. Good luck with a quick response after your complaint is sent. Love Lynne x

Desperate situation, desperate measures, Janette.

Best of luck xx

[Nettie]

Oh Janette, I don't know what to say 😪😪

I know builders etc everywhere are very busy after lockdowns, but I wonder if Phil could use his FB skills and post your 'story', maybe some contractor with a heart would take it on. IDK if you'd go to the local media, it's privacy v necessity.

Big, big hug xx

The media is the next step Ellie 🥴 x Janette

Hi Mary, we’ve tried all sorts we’ve had Wythenshawe on to them MND on to them the OT, our local MP.
Phil spoke to the senior manager this morning he told him to put a formal complaint in but it only goes to him anyway 🤦🏼♀️So Phil has sent one anyway. The rest of the lift is being done 11th august that means we’re still waiting for ramps doors widened and wet room. So I think the next step is the papers thanks Janette xx
