yes me, I am being asked for service charge now even though when I bought the property Southwark council gave me assurance in writing that no service charge was payable. Not only that but my property is a street property and not part of the estate for which I am being charged a service. Bit crap, gonna have to embark on legal stuff I can't afford. The council should give you a breakdown of the exact costs and how they are apportioned so at least you can see what they're charging you for.
