My cushion for my wheelchair, was becoming a pain (The center was dipped in).
Due to covid19 I didn’t make a fuss as It was not totally broken, just painful.
By November 2020
It was unusable, however had found a cushion but different type.
My Roho is full of air. The spare is essentially a bean bag chair chousion.
I tried the spare cushion, but was extremely uncomfortable.
To overcome this, I was sitting forward, this lead to Low back pain. So I gave in and called he Wheelchair Service.
In their quest to become the centre for bureaucratic nonsense, The Wheelchair Services need a referral from my Dr. to help.
Now had this been a new request for a wheelchair or a medical based change, i could understand the need for referral, however this was due to a part of the wheelchair breaking.
So I faff with my Dr. get the referral.
Now the Wheelchair Service needs me to attend for an assessment.
I've not been out of my flat sine June/July 2019. Several reason mostly because I get extremely travel sick. The idea makes me anxious, Add in risk of Covid19 and I become a mess.
So an appoitment was made for Wednesday 6th Jan 2021.
On Tuesday 5h Jan 2021
Wheelchair Service call and canclle the appoitment, as the staff are being redeployed to help with Covid19 In hospitals. I was told It would likley be Feb befor I could be seen.
On Monday 11th Jan 2021
I get a phone call offering me an appoitment for next week.
Staff where redeployed to help with Covid19. We asume they have had contact with people n Hospital. These same staff have now been sent back to handle their normal workload.
Haringey have ‘Maximisation’ in an actual Job Title, I’m unsure what can be accomplished.
At some point Haringey underwent a ‘Corporate’ makeover. I suspect this was encouraged by a excel spreadsheet.
The ‘Corporate’ feel unfortunately put profit ahead on service.
Research from the Evening Standard has shown that Haringey had 27 complaints to the ombudsman upheld last year – the highest number of any council in London. It included one case involving a family threatened with homelessness, where the ombudsman said officers “were unaware of current law or your own procedures, or had chosen to disregard them.”
Commenting, Cllr Luke Cawley-Harrison, Leader of the Opposition, said: “Many residents in Haringey will not be surprised2 to see their borough is the worst in London for complaints against their council. These statistics reflect the numerous cases we have raised with us by residents that have been failed by their council rather than supported. Haringey needs to urgently review how it has found itself in this position, and a wholesale change of how the council treats residents needs to take place because it is simply not good enough.”
On I was expecting 3 parcles from Amazon.
I got the normal “your parcle is n. stops away” notification on my phone from the app.
The Communal Door bell went off, I pressed my button (to unlock the door). The Delivery Agent promptley left my items on the floor.
After several very unhelpful amazon Customer Reps. A message was sent to
Executive Customer Relations (Department)
asking for a phone call.
On (5 days later) I got an email.
On
Lori
emailed me
I understand you requested a phone call. Please know that due to the nature of the complaint and we have already previously confirmed the delivery process to you, all communication will be via email.
So they had my PHONE CALL request and decided to ignore it. The phone request is a Reasonable Adjustment
Also having confirmed the delivery process is irrelevant as the complaint is about the delivery process not working.
As mentioned previously, the third party delivery service providers delivering parcels to you are independent and they engage drivers directly as self-employed contractors. Amazon cannot instruct drivers, who are engaged by third party delivery services providers, to enter your flat.
Well that line has changed so much i’ve lost count! During the covid19 Social Distancing Farse my parcles could not by handed to me as we had to maintain distance. So I put a chair just behind my door for parcles (used by Royal Mail, DPD etc)
I’ve checked and the 3 parcels on were Delived by Amazon, so her comment is just stupid.
On
Lori
emailed me
As stated previously the drivers cannot go inside your door to the chair to leave parcels. The Drivers will only be able to leave parcels outside or at your front door but not go over the threshold. Please clarify what happened in this instance and we can look to see the best options.
So the dilivery agent rings the communal door bell, This rings a bell in my kitched. In the Door Bird app on my phone. I’m presented a picture (like below) from the app I can open the door.
Once in the Communal Hallway The dilivery agent will need to wait for me to open MY door and HAND ME the parcle.
Comming Soon
On I sent email to chloe@chloesmith.org.uk as the Ministers for disabled people. This was forwarded to ministers@dwp.gov.uk.
On “DWP” Responded.
I’ve email my MP several times on this matter so far all I’ve got is an Automatic Reponse. So I asume she dosen’t want to be reelected as Uesless would be nice.
Events by Date
You need to contact Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy enquiries@beis.gov.uk
Unfortunately, this is not a matter on which the Minister for Disabled People, Health and Work can intervene. Whilst the Minister has a Cross-Government role on Disability issues, each Department – and their respective Ministers – is responsible to ensure that their policies meet the requirements of equality legislation.
I understand the Tories are useless, but put so effort into your f-ing excuses
email to chloe@chloesmith.org.uk as the Ministers for disabled people
Hello,
I’ve previously contacted your colleagues and former Ministers for disabled people.
My MP (Catherine West included in email) advised me “To write to the Minister for Disabled People, Health and Work, you can find Justin Tomlinson MP’s contact details online here: {SNIP}” without response.
I’ve also wrote to the Governments Disability Unit without response.
I’m lead to believe Catherine West emailed her contact within Amazon and I’m unsure of the outcome.
The behavior of Amazon is unacceptable. They have been unable to resolve delivery issues with my purchase in SIX YEARS
The excuses keep changing. During Covid19 Social Distancing I Put a chair just behind my door. As handing me my purchases directly was no longed advised. They now say they can’t do this
yet won’t wait for me to be able to be handed the purchases. During the pandemic Not one delivery agent was wearing a mask.
FOI request to Department for Business, Energy and Industrial Strategy. They responded with Advice given to Home delivery companies regarding Covid 19
The most impotant part…
This guidance does not supersede any legal obligations relating to health and safety,
employment or equalities, and it is important that businesses or employers continues to comply
with their existing obligations including those relating to individuals with protected
characteristics. It contains non-statutory guidance to take into account when complying with
these existing obligations.
The Equality and Advisory Helpline have written to Amazon multiply times on my Behalf and never got a response. I’ve sent several claims and never got a response.
Lori (my executive level contact) stated on 17th (in response to issue on 11th) “Otherwise further communication may not be replied to.” and “I appreciate you have experienced some delivery issues and I would like to clarify what the issues were. Due to the ongoing nature of the delivery issues you have experienced, we do need to keep a record via email of what you would like the driver to do.” and the major issue
“Good Morning Lori from Executive Customer Relations here. I understand you requested a phone call” said in an email.
They constantly flout equality laws.
Lori asked on 17th if the incorrect items delivered on 11th where still in the communal hallway of the floor.
Yet Delivery business like Amazon have twisted the Covid19 advice and Putting disabled customers at a disadvantage.
The attached image is the message Amazon send out when something is purchased.
