Stratford Magistrates' Court And Family Court

Bad service been phoning for days. phone just rings out no one answers. No option for a call back. needed to contact them urgently Disgusting service

Phone is constantly engaged or rings off. Go to the court to get papers sealed and get told to make an appointment over the phone which is an impossibility.They are a total joke. Bet they won't be laughing when the courts are privatised and they all get a well deserved P45

I telephoned the Magistrates Court with a query. The phone was answered within a short time and my query was dealt with in a professional manner. So have to say they could not be faulted.
Having tried to contact other Courts many times where they would never even answer the phone. I was amazed!

Abysmal. A bunch of monkeys could do a much better job.

I did not want to give this the one star I did, but it won't allow you to post the review unless you do. My daughter answered her friends door one day to a TV licensing man who asked her name. She gave it but told the man she did not live there as was living with us at the time. The people who did live there had an old black and white TV that they never ever used. That was 3 years ago. She has recently been sent a fine for £750 to our address and told to attend court. She could not do this as was away at the time. She has had to go to Highbury Magistrates Court in person to tell them this and now has been summoned to appear at Stratford in September. Once again she is away travelling and is so stressed about it all that I am furious. I have tried to phone this court numerous times but the lazy staff at the other end cannot even be bothered to answer phone calls. This is outrageous. Given that she never even lived at the address, which was in Ealing and the amount of time and money wasted on this is absolutely downright criminal on their behalf. She has literally just qualified as a nurse and the stress that this is causing her is abominable!!! What has happened to this country? How can you possibly put a person through so much pressure and worry. Being middle aged I would tell them to stuff it but she is young and is scared of having a criminal record for something that is nothing to do with her. And you can never get through to the Highbury Magistrates Court either. Shame on you all !!!!!!

Wholly corrupt kangaroo procedures, guilty until not able to prove yourself innocent. The police lie all they want then it's up to you to prove them wrong. I lost my faith in the police service, court system and a portion of humanity today.

Impossible to get hold of them on the phone! They just keep hanging up at their end!

no one answers the phone and shameless staff very rude and no sense

Seems I have spent 3 days or more of my life waiting for someone to pick up the phone on behalf of my 80yr old mother and when they do they put it down without talking to you!!! Watchdog or some TV programme should look into this

The phone will ring for up to 10 minutes with no answer. Tried many times to the same effect.

Never got any answer on the phone after several days of calling, to save my writing for something better in short this court is rubbish
