That is the similar issue with Peckham Rye - the council have prioritised commercial interests over the community (residents and environment), and utterly shameless in doing so. For a council to be wilfully cirumventing legal ruling, is more than alarming. Their actions should always be transparent and beyond reproach, not shady and biased for particular commercial interest. It raises the question of where else they manipulate commercial interests and generally look to break rules. -
I can't see it will ever be finally resolved, unfortunately. Although the local problems were made much worse due to the move of the Sylvester Road delivery office to Peckham, Royal Mail has had issues ever since it was privatised. Whenever the local MP gets involved, things get a bit better temporarily, then they just deteriorate again. I hope I'm wrong, but there are similar postal delivery issues all over the country. I think there are currently discussions ongoing to change the delivery requirements which Royal Mail is supposed to adhere to for first and second class post. Silly question, but are you actually expecting letters? I haven't had any post for ages either, but I'm not expecting any! Much stuff these days is done by email or on apps. The East Dulwich delivery office is in Peckham, not West Dulwich? -

Hi, over the last few years, I have had a problems with my joint freeholder. For the last 15 years there has been roof leaks and we had some repairs done around 2016 but I got another leak a few years ago. Instead of investing money in a new roof or RICS survey, the joint freeholder is trying to force me to pay for non-essential work in hallway (tiling, new door and repainting) which will come to approximately £3K via Section 20 of the Landlord and Tenants Act 1985. We keep going around in circles and I want to suggest a mediator again (ideally with a property solicitor). Key reason I am wanting to work with a lawyer is my joint freeholder is also solicitor, so needs to be someone who has expertise of leases. I have proposed a managing agent for maintenance for the building or a declaration of trust but they wont agree, so we are unable to move forward. We are just two flats in one house and trust has completely broken down. I think they are trying to make life so difficult that I sell, so they can do an extension. I love my flat and I am not in a situation where I can move. Can anyone suggest a mediator that can help us find some common ground? Any advice welcome and DM if you prefer. -
This problem has been going on since before Covid due to the closure of the Dulwich sorting office. The local MP Ellie Reeves is aware and has written to the Post Office. They give the same generic responses about 'temporary' staffing issues. Would encourage people to email Ellie Reeves. It's about time this was finally resolved!
