I would like to bring the following to light, and hopefully something will finally be done.
My property is overflowing with sewerage, due to a blockage and the smell is unbearable. Even my toilet is blocked now because of this.
I reported this to the call centre on August 5 at 08:51; reference number: 2067349.
I followed up on August 8 at 9:27, August 9 at 10:47, August 10 at 15:57 (same story on there way or will be there) and again at 17:21.
They kept me holding for 25 minutes and then just put the phone down. All calls take up to 25 to 30 minutes for them to give you any response.
