Gosport Borough Council

I have just been to the Gosport council Tip with bags of soil from my garden . There was no one around to ask which bin i had to place it in so started to put it in the garden waste . After emptying 4 bags only then did someone come and tell me i had to take it to the rubble bin instead . With that i was told by the guy sat on his backside that i would have to pay as it was rubble when i explain it was NOT Rubble just soil was told basically i would have to pay as it was not there fault but it was the council fault Why is SOIL classed as Rubble it is a natural substance not brick or stones ?.

Very unhelpful, full of dictatorial demands. No pots or flowers in the communal scrub land. Cannot dry washing outside. No for sale or to rent signs. Tried to get a parking permit (which I have to pay £20.00 for) for a mobility car can’t issue as have no vehicle documents, despite the fact I had the out of date parking permit which stated the car registration no on. No chairs allowed in the outside space. Had two keys allocated to us for a place to put a mobility scooter in. Neither of them worked. Sent someone out because of cigarette buts on the ground. Locked gates in the rubbish area. Which makes it difficult for someone with mobility issues. When you do complain nothing is done about. Scaffolding set up for cladding erected too close to our apartment which let rain water spill into my living room. Took two years to get it sorted. I have been around for 75 years and have never had any problems with Councils until we moved into GBC territory. Worse decision we ever made. If I could give it no stars I would.

Terrible experience with them! Dealing with a neighbour hitting my walls day and night. Despite having recorded evidence, the neighbour's were able to just lie and say it was floorboards and the wind!!!

Very quick to demand money (council tax) but when it comes to passing on the rebate that is owed they say we can't call or email asking when we will receive it, delay tactics isn't helping anyone, I will be withholding the next council tax payment as unable to keep up with rising prices

Worst council I have ever lived under. They are incredibly inefficient, and use constant delay tactics on the energy rebate. Avoid.

Whenever I call them, always helpful and agreements/promises are kept

Had to speak to council few times now, have been helpful and answered all questions I had.

A big Thank you to Gosport Council.
We put our bin out Boxing Day evening as usual but for some reason the refuse men missed us. As the week went on we realised we had been missed and it was not just that the collection was late.
Phoned the council this morning and a lovely lady said someone would collect it but not sure which day.
Well it is 13.00 and it has just been collected.
Totally brilliant service so Thank You to the council.
