Barnet Council Reviews 

Strange to see nothing but bad reviews and still a 2.3 poor rating by Trustpilot ! However let’s not digress from the topic ,mmmm Barnet Council ! Constantly failing in just about every department they have ,the ongoing denial of their failed outsourcing calamity and just about legal.
A workforce that is either temporary ,leaving or about to leave and all experts in not answering direct questions and buck passing ,however they do have a new glitzy advertising campaign on how great they are ! Don’t forget who’s paid for that ! No prizes for getting it right the good old tax payer!
So the best thing to do with these professionals lol ,is exhaust whatever process your trying to get an answer from ,and then issue legal proceedings against them in the County Courts ,don’t waste your time with the complaints procedure or LGO procedure as neither are fit for purpose and heavily biased against you ,have a read up on litigants in person and issue them in the court ,they will argue up to the Court door and pay you out ! It’s the only thing that Barnet will actually respond too is a court summons !

Can’t believe how bad the Barnett council is.
After having lived across the country, I purchased my own flat in Golders Green and have since had absolute dismal assistance from the Barnett council.
Time too it all up, this useless council has imposed a garden waste service tax to clean up the green bins. This is preposterous as you’re making people pay for enabling cleaner air.
This council deserves to be taken to task and for absolute rotten management of their funds

The most disgusting council I have ever had the displeasure of living in
Constantly ripping you off with made up council payments
They are all liars, contradictory of each and none of them know what they're doing

One star is too much.. this is possibly the most incompetent organisarion ever encountered especillay council tax department..total fools that seem to have no accountability to anyone.

they don’t even deserve one star! Appalling service. Streets and public paths never get cleaned, missed bin collection is their common practice, calls or emails never get updated. Barnet Council is a total disgrace and embarrassment

Hey Barnet Council. You hide behind a wall of automated responses that rarely get you to where you need to be. When someone does answer the phone they are so bored and disinterested it's really difficult not to ask them if they know they're at work.
You've changed systems without notifiying anyone so now residents parking permits require completely new input of residential proof and vehicle ownership. When were you planning to tell anyone about that? Once everyone had been ticketed for an expired permit? Disgraceful and incompetant behaviour from an organisation so big that no one cares as long as their salaries are paid each month.

I am very disappointed by Barnet council planning team. Very unprofessional. Staff are rude and never return calls or emails.
