I live in Altima Court too, we had no water around 10pm last night, but

it came back on around midnight. Management agents said it was a fault with the pump, but

didn't have any other info.

We had this problem several times last year, hope they've solved the issue once and for all!

I live in Altims Court too and have just got back from work and there's no water again!!! I reported a problem at 5.30am this morning and they gave me an ETA for the contractor to come out for 7.30am, the management agent gave the contractor my number and they called at 7.50am to say that they were 5mins away, didn't hear from them again. I can't believe its not working again, it apparently hasn't been working since 6.30pm and the contractor is not due to arrive until 9.30pm. This is the 4th time I've experienced this here in the last 2 years.

Hey,

Did they manage to fix your water problem? Reason I ask is my girlfriend and I are looking at buying a flat in Altima court and amongst my research I stumbled across your thread.


After speaking with our estate agent I though the service charges/ground rent were quite high, but assumed because of the size of the block and how well maintained it looks that this was the norm. But seems a lot to be paying for no water! Have you had any other problems and would you recommend living in the block??

I've lived in Altima Court for 4 years and the water going off the other night was the first time I've known it to happen here. It was annoying but not worth not buying a flat over.


Can't really comment on the expense of the service charge as I've nothing to compare it against.


Our previous property manager from the managing agents was absolutely useless. The new one actually came round the other day though and he is a hell of a lot better.

I have lived in Altima Court since built- so 5 years. To my knowledge have lost water twice, once due to mains issue, once due to Altima Court issue, which was resolved by management company same day. Based on this, hard to fault. Sure,management fee isn't cheap, but considering property has lifts etc., does not compare badly to my previous flat. Certainly not going to promote the management company, they do adequate job, but not ready to criticise either.

      Not sure about changing hands but the Peckham Rye one is open and hasn’t had any random closures. Our child is very happy there but there was a resolved Ofsted complaint half way through last year.  Things don’t look good for the Devon nursery owned by the same company - looks like loads of issues with Ofsted which can be seen in its latest report.

      Have a great nhs dentist accepting patients

      By Sue · Posted

      I was in Forest Hill Road today, just past the Rye, and noticed there is a dentist next to the Herne (pub) that has NHS signs outside. I've never had any problems getting NHS dental treatment in East Dulwich, and I get regular check ups. I've been to three  different dental practices here over the years, all with NHS treatment. I think the difficulties are in other parts of the country. Malumbu has a good explanation above. I didn't hear the Radio 4 programme, but I'm guessing that a  radio programme is not going to have time to say where you CAN easily get NHS treatment, and is bound to focus on the negatives and the horror stories, otherwise it would be very boring! ETA: Re children's teeth, I think the major issue is not lack of dentists, it is children being given sugary food, drinks and confectionery which rots their teeth. The education of parents needs to be about this, not just about tooth brushing. And in some cases the poor diet may also be due to lack of money for healthy food. Though of course the lack of dentists doesn't help, if  the tooth rotting can't be rectified by fillings or extraction.

      Well, I hope you like what you see, the hot air, lack of answers and continual blaming things on the last Government and the made up blackhole, I find are nauseating. The man needs to see reality, because I'd guess that if we had a snap election tomorrow and based on the first six months of this parliament, Labour would get trounced. When the election does finally happen and if that isn't before the people rise up and throw this lot out, Labour will not be voted back in for a millennium.
