Metropolitan Police Reviews 871

Disgusting people I asked for help they now fined me 400 when I can’t afford to eat!

My complaint is regarding the METEEngage platform. They sent a newsletter out stating they will be doing street briefings with the community in Harrow but then nobody shows up, even when the neighbourhood has been filtered by residents about the event so that we can all come out to speak to representatives of the MET police in Harrow.

So we go to the local ward to find out why nobody has turned up and why nobody has been alerted to the cancellation (if there was one), but the local Wealdstone ward is closed with a sign saying to ema harrow@met police, but the harrow police station is closed and that email alias no longer works.

So we try calling the nearest police station in harrow which is Wembley and they won't take your call due to the nature of it

So we message on the MET engage platform where the original message and newsletter was sent about these supposed street briefing visits, but there are no responses to the messages on that platform. This leads us to think that the platform METSegmnage is not monitored and that it's just a front or a perception gimmick.

How does one contact the police if there is no local police station, the METEengage team being unresponsive and no showing to meetings they organise and invite others to participate in, and the local ward not answering intercoms with a sign displayed showing a wrong email alias on who to contact.

Central London. I was assaulted (several punches, a kick) by a stranger after a small street dispute over littering (that he did). The police didn't bother showing up in 1.5 hours. I gave them a clear, full body picture of the man and his face, AND his car with a visible plate behind him.

8 months later, still no update. I asked for one. I waited another month, nothing. I made a complaint and, guess what? It turns out they completely forgot to file the investigation in the first place, so it never happened. The assigned officer's punishment? "LTR", Learning Through Reflection; I wish I was making that up.

That's what I get for being a 40% tax rate payer.

Cover up !!!!
I’m back as my case has come back.
A totally useless copper dealt with my case that dates back to October.
It dragged on for 2 months when this copper finally succeeded to get rid of us as he kept using one excuse after another as to why the suspect could not be charged.
He had no idea what to do.
Had to give up as he showed from his responses and excuses that he was totally out of his depth, not knowing how to pursue the case.
He is based at Wood Green cop shop.
His name is Rashan and in my view shouldn’t be in the job.
Now to my surprise, after 6 months, he tells me that the suspect has been charged. What made him change his mind ?
I don’t believe him. It’s just an attempt to cover his tracks, but shows how inefficient he is. He doesn’t have a clue on how to do the job and wastes people’s time.
He shouldn’t be in the job.

I was sexually abused aged (6-12yr) as a cadet in “st John ambulance” I reported it 40 years later (now 49) and struggling with my mental health.
5 officers in charge and now has been passed to the “boss/Sergeant or CPS” after four years.
As you should know, most NCO‘s (non-commissioned officers) and above, inspectors, superintendent, & of course judges, MPs and Lords are full of the masons (the Masonic Lodge) these people take an oath to help and protect their members.
All the time that their members are getting MBE’s, OBE’s, Lord/Ladyships, they are growing stronger.

If you’ve been affected by this review, please reach out and contact someone.

Been harassed many times, where I have had someone give witness, police did nothing. They are racist.

It had a tracker device, though, and was found to be nearby parked in another street.

The police flat-out refused to come and help him recover it (it looked like it had been stolen rather than taken by joyriders), or dust it for prints.

If he was attacked reclaiming it he should call them, they said.

We long ago reached the point where the police weren’t doing their job.

We have now reached the point where they tell you so to your face.

I was assulted twice last year and was the victim of a road rage attack this year which resulted in damage to my car.

On all three occations, the MET didnt act to gather CCTV or appoint an investigating officer to respond to me.

I have had to raise three IPOC complaints about these matters, which the MET has 28 days to respond, but it is not 6 months since the first insident and still, no one has responded.

This is even more frustrating when on all three occations I had spoken to the CCTV controllers of the various locatons to make sure the CCTV could be retrieved and isolated for the MET. On the 2nd and 3rd instance i explained that the MET didnt act fast enough (inside 30 days) to secure the evidence and as there was no evidence, there was nothing that they could do.

I want someone from the MET to speak to me and explain this, but at this rate I would have to go down to Mew Scotland Yard with a soap box and bang saucepans together in their lobby to get anyone to speak to me.

In 2019 I reported to the DWP and Met Police that an individual had made multiple claims in my name.
In 2020 on my birthday I had to attend an interview under caution with the DWP.
I was happy to attend as I had evidence to prove that I did not make these claims - especially to be stupid enough to do it in my name.
They mentioned that they had CCTV footage of the individual and recorded calls.
This was good news to me and this was hard evidence proving it wasn't me.
How this individual was able to pass security and claim to be me is a mystery - We look nothing alike...
I chased this up every month with the DWP, Met Police and Action fraud.
All parties were so reluctant to help and there was a lack of urgency.
Despite my reporting and notes on the system till this day 2026... 6 years later the DWP have not done anything about this and have continued to take payment from my wages.
This has caused me a lot of stress over the years especially during Covid where I had to claim - nearly a 3rd of the benefits was taken back by the DWP so I had nothing to live on for the month.
I have started a new Job in the new year and recently had a baby. I made my most recent report last year and have not heard anything back since. This individual is still out there living their best life while a victim has to suffer for their actions. The DWP owes me hundreds back from wages taken from me and some sort of compensation for dragging this in for 6 years. Some people would have killed themselves by now.

Wood green police are a disgrace I been attacked last in in march on the main road around 6 cctv devices exactly where everything happened they deny any footage i did have life treating injury even today I am not healthy I send them later a video with one the attackers sense then no information the refuse to solve the case they dont work for us if you are victim they will do nothing if you do anything small they are to your house fine you or arrest you where is the justice in this country criminal infractors walking free and police doesn't care about you is shocking i cannot belive is real shame on you

1 star. 1 star

They are all Wayne Couzins - the female POS are either petrified of their male colleagues or part of the abuse. Either way they are enablers. They are all perverts and rapists.

They do a good job. Sadly, they are understaffed and quite often slow to respond.
Due to government restrictions that they are restricted in what they can and cannot do
Quite often don’t have good knowledge of the law
Or try to fob us off ., Not knowing the difference between a civil matter and a lawful matter

Currently the government are reviewing what went wrong during the covid pandemic, while they are undertaking this review perhaps they could ask Sutton Police why they drove past residents of an estate in Wallington, having barbecues with several people attending on the fist day of lock down, birthday parties with about 40 guests in attendance witnessed by the police again during lock down, and drug fuelled parties again with multiple guests, some who were staff of the estate landlord, and despite people reporting these insidents no action was taken to stop them.

The Police are biased in my case. I have been bullied, harassed, assaulted, my mail has been stolen, and my parcels have been stolen during a time when I had no CCTV. I installed CCTV in June 2025. Since then, the CCTV has recorded further incidents, including one in which the son of the neighbour above me dragged my Motor Scooter from the communal area, onto the pavement and just left it there. Another time, it showed her picking up my mail and entering her home with my mail in her hands. The police are now saying that I should stop reporting because it has nothing to do with them. I heard it from them, at my doorstep, a few minutes ago.

Horrible system.
Horrible personnel in so far.
Horrible comments made to people who need help.

I had a very positive experience with the police at 177 Peckham High Street. Thomas helped me recover my phone and kept me informed throughout. He was polite, efficient, and reassuring. Thank you for the great service.I’m grateful so much ❤️

Reported a racially-fuelled attack where an abuser entered my house, vandalised and urinated on the floor. The police were "too busy" to dispatch and contacted me via phone 2 days later. After reporting everything and providing pictures, they dismissed the case due to "insufficient evidence, yet they never stepped foot in my house to check on me or the property. The guy literally got off without a warning or anything. A trashy, pathetic organisation full of narcissistic, useless things (they don't even get to be called people).

My car broke down in the middle of a busy road. I called the police, and they arrived in less than five minutes. They helped move my car to a safe place and ensured the situation was handled quickly and professionally.

I’m really thankful to the London Metropolitan Police for their great help and support.
