Even though you would be parking on the pavement. No. anyway, doesn’t Douglas Beach look great in summer? 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
offshoremanxman Posted July 28, 2023 Share Posted July 28, 2023 (edited) An absolute belter by DBC grabbed from Facebook. What a way to deal with someone paying rates that actually fund your wages. We are spending too much time dealing with your situation that we don’t want to sort out so we can’t be bothered in future as you’ve sent us 4.5 emails ia week and you’ve upset our staff by criticizing us on Facebook 😂😂 Edited July 28, 2023 by offshoremanxman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This guy sounds like exactly the sort of person DBC's policy is rightly designed to cover, and I doubt I'd have been so polite had it been me drafting the letter. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or someone trying to get a resolution from an organization they fund who has hit a brick wall and now they have found a legal way to tell him to fuck off and do nothing because they don’t want to do anything.

Could be, but I suspect it really is more about the opportunity cost of dealing with excessive correspondence from one person, however rightfully aggrieved, just like the letter says.

Isn’t he the guy who took a wheelie bin down to the Town hall, allegedly because of the commercial bins at the Rosemount which he says are always overflowing? He seems to blame that on DBC fortnightly bin collections rather than a commercial organisation’s waste not being cleared as frequently as it should. There was quite a debate on here at the time and he tried an FoI/GDPR subject request on Manx Forums asking how much info was held by MF on him, and how many times his name had been mentioned and by whom, and their personal details. He was given short shrift. A GDPR compliant answer, but short shrift. As the request was addressed to MF and DBC I assume they had to deal with it as well. Some of the requests were extremely vague and open ended date wise. Others would have required GDPR breaches to answer. And as he wasn’t a signed up poster, as far as the admin could ascertain, MF held nothing. He was invited to disclose his posting name so admin could cross check and answer what was held. He didn’t respond. . 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roxanne Posted July 28, 2023 Share Posted July 28, 2023 Seems like a polite, reasonable response given that this isn’t even a DBC issue. What else could they have done in dealing with someone making unreasonable demands. They already seems to have spent enough time on this one individual. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
offshoremanxman Posted July 28, 2023 Share Posted July 28, 2023 Part of the reply he posted seems fairly categoric. Let’s see if DBC are back in the papers this week after the “stolen” bin saga they bullied this guy with last time. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But his dispute is with the owners/managers of the commercial premises, not with DBC. I’m sure he doesn’t understand that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a characteristic of these sort of people that they simultaneously believe they deserve the undivided attention and efforts of everyone they come across and that they refuse to do anything themselves. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet again it’s interesting what info ex moderators have access to. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
