Geoffrey Settle Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 I just wondered if anyone has been sending emails to the WBC Contact Centre and if so what sort of response they get? I have been for a few months now and some of the time I do receive a reply with a reference number. After this there is quite often a long silence that goes on and on without reply. Do they have a service level agreement with their customers i.e. YOU? Mind you I did get a verbal resonse from one of my LIB/DEM councillors at a recent Parish meeting mocking me as she read my comments from the text out loud. Maybe she's the blockage in the process. Have you had a similar experience and if so how did you get feedback and action? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
observer Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 Is this "political"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffrey Settle Posted April 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 If you ask your wise friend I'm sure that he will say that it is because the Councilors should be fielding some of the queries, monitoring it's performance and being aware of the need for improvements that they will have to sanction. I could be wrong and it may be nothing to do with them until it becoames successful and then they will be harping on about how great it is and what a wonderful idea of theirs it was.

Paul Kennedy Posted April 15, 2008 Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 Used it twice, worked well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffrey Settle Posted April 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2008 Paul, I suppose it's like anything it depends who your query/issue gets directed to. I have had some excellent responses from some officers and then again some not so. But there doesn't seem to be the consistency that you would want from a good responsive system.

reader Posted April 16, 2008 Report Share Posted April 16, 2008 I used it the other day, I and a few others hadnt put the green bins out and when I saw the team looking to collect realised we hadnt had a new collection callendar. I sent an email and got a very fast response offering to send one out. (did you get one for 2009/9 Geoff ?)

Geoffrey Settle Posted April 16, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 16, 2008 No, still got the 2007/08 sticker on the bin lid. Mind you our bin has only a few bit and pieces in it so I didn't put it out last month of this week. This means that they wouldn't have had a chance to stick one on or anyone else in the close as very few if anyone put their bins out. I will give your recommendation a try plus TLC asked me to chase up an issue for her yesterday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geoffrey Settle Posted April 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2008 She's doing fine Pete but the last time she saw one poster he slapped her in the face. I just hope he's sober next time and apologises appropriately Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Legion Posted April 17, 2008 Report Share Posted April 17, 2008 theres a callendar !!!! I've never had one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffrey Settle Posted April 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 17, 2008 Well you can use the calender to strain the fruit and veg before you put them in the green bin. You can then check the calendar to check when you should put the bin outside for collection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
