Lancashire Constabulary Reviews 

You report a crime, but they'll begin building a personal profile about you. They ask for your email, and tell you they'll send you a confirmation that the crime has at least been logged, even if it won't be investigated. But they don't even send you the email, which clearly indicates they don't even log the offence, presumably with the intention of improving their crime statistics. It'd be quite funny if we didn't pay for his joke of a public institution.

Horrible police not bothered about anyone’s safety so many times my dad has rang the police. About my ill brother hitting 70 year old man but they don’t care. My brother has mental problems and is a drug addict. My dad has said he’s going to kill me please move me to a safe place or put him in hospital but they actually waiting for any of them
Dead. Shocking that how can you be so heartless

The worst experience of my life the police are literally no good why I pay for them to protect us is beyond me. I am now suffering with depression anxiety from the second of this month. I do not even want to leave my home where it’s got to that bad. I don’t have a job anymore. Thanks to them. Never again. Will I help the Police after everything I’ve done for them.

I contacted the police to inform them that there were 2 teenagers terrorising young children on a park in Morecambe, because they weren't actually physically touching them there was nothing they could do. These teenagers are our future and while they are allowed to get away with it nothing will change. I didn't want them to send an army of police but maybe a Community officer. I just pray that these kids don't cause anything worse than I witnessed. No faith sorry.

Unfortunately I live near to areas with high Anti Social Behaviour, yet I have not seen a Lancashire police car in these areas since 2020. Disgusting, where is the tax payers money going to because it is not being used in policing or fighting crime. Instead Lancashire Police can now only be seen sat at the side of roads and motorways eating donuts or flying over in a helicopter.The shameful non-existent Lancashire Police Force..

Totally waste of time, trying to help them, can't get hold of officer in charge, even with a crime number.
Trying to report a crime is a total joke, more interested in every other subject than the crime. Why can't you just report the crime, than all this gender and woke information they want. We are all the same when a crime is committed. We just want a response.

Useless and incompetent.
Once someone broke into my house and stole gold jewellery and new laptop whoever they couldn't recover anything thing.

Last night I got fined for tinted car window even I didn't got them tinted. They were already tinted when I bought it.
In the meantime I have approached in a private parking for prayer.
He issued notice in a private car park and wrote the place name of street outside the car park.
I'm being forced to accept an offence which I haven't committed.

I requested him to finish bit quick because I was getting late for the prayer however he ignored my request and tried to make fun of it.
He asked me why everyone is entering here same time I told him it is because of sunset prayer time.

Driving taxpayer's luxury cars then chasing and fining the same innocent taxpayers is not appropriate able at all.

It is very easy to fine and make trouble to ordinary peaceful citizens however when it comes to do some hard work for the same peaceful citizens they can't help.
It seems that they are not compatible enough.

Both incidents were very upsetting and disgraceful.

Absolutely useless Neighbourhood policing team (Blackburn, Audley) 3 times I have reported same issue -the ongoing loud noise nuisance in the evenings and ball games (constant ball kicking and hitting against the wall) in my street which is severely causing disturbance and disrupting peace, reported on 3 different dates, still nothing done. How many times are people supposed to report to police before something is done???

It's absolutely ridiculous and a big joke. Total waste of time and energy with zero result to the issue.
What am I supposed to do?
I am a law abiding citizen who cannot do anything more than verbally dealing with the inconsiderate, verbally aggressive, and rigid culprits, which I've already done a number of times. Only action left would be to go the police, who so far, I feel, just ignored my complaints at large.

It's so frustrating, stressful, and a big headache even thinking and writing about it here. The whole thing is distressing, and has affected my mental health and state of mind much.

My first initial reporting to the police was on 12 the June 2024.

If I could of chosen Zero I would. I was pulled over by a traffic officer who insisted my vehicles MOT was out, I had to pay a fine of £100 on my card to the SRU and prove my car had MOT then claim the £100 back. 5 phone calls 4 week and hours of emails I finally received the refund. Thus actually cost me allot more than £100 I was refunded. The law breaking the law to extort money out of the general public. If anyone from lancs police would like to reply and compensate me for what it actually cost me I’d appreciate it. I think a mention to the local newspaper u in a in order, don’t let them get away with it! How many other people just accept the fine? DK61TBO

I moved from Morecambe to barrow several years ago . I suffer with depression and have been sectioned a few times in the past . I was told by a pc called " Pennington ( can't remember his first name)! If I really wanted to kill myself I should go to half moon bay , when it's dark , and walk out into the sea . It's totally unlit so it would very dark . What a bloody awful officer . It was some time ago , so I don't expect anything will happen

Rang Lancashire Police to report travellers parking on our housing estate and letting horses loose and pooing all over the pavement, parking on double yellows, drinking beer, causing a nuisance, then driving away in their van and carts leaving a total mess. Was told it’s not a criminal offense, unbelievable! So drink driving, causing a public nuisance and parking blocking residents is obviously not a criminal offence anymore?! However, I was told it would be a criminal offence if the Neighbours moved them on ourselves, absolute waste of time, genuinely , in my opinion I feel they cannot be bothered and the way they answer the phone in the control room is a disgrace, like they’re doing me a favour for providing a public service and getting paid for it!

Caroline rigby a so called sgt at Burnley police station is a tyrant and abuser she gives great character references for bent coppers who rape and assault women, she then violates citizens human rights and has no clue about stop and search powers thanks to her idiot self we in Lancashire now have to pay out to an online auditor for her violating his human rights under article 8 sack this garbage and get rid of her better still send her to prison

Absolutely waste of time ringing wasted my time and the police cadet who came out
My dog was attacked walking on Richmond Ave Cliviger an out of control dog on a flimsy washing line behind a two foot high picket fence going bonkers at my dog just walking past I told the owner to secure it she was stood at the back door then as I’m on my way the dog jumped the fence pinned my dog down punctured its back leg and front costing me £260 no apology nothing then the police take statements and say there’s grounds for prosecution only to be told in a text the case is dropped it’s a civil matter !! What the hell is going on there’s no law and order now people can do what they want and get away with it and the innocent people pay the price!!
That’s a dangerous dog that will hurt someone and should be muzzled absolutely disgusting

Colne/ nelson police, pc PAUL TAYLOR, WHAT HOPE HAVE WE GOT IF PEOPLE CAN STEAL OUR STUFF AND BE TOLD ITS A CIVIL MATTER. Do not ring police take matters into own hands. I've had my car stolen in December 2023 last year to just being told today 8thmay 24, to be told its CIVIL MATTER wtaf, hows it CIVIL I've had
my property stolen.... but if I use phone while driving or no seat bealt your all over us. DONT RING POLICE DO WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE YOURSELVES

Lancashire Police should hang their heads in shame for the way they’ve mishandled my case.
A rogue trader drove up our drive in the Clitheroe area, smashed into the gate pillar, damaging the pillar and tearing a hole in the house wall.
It was all captured on CCTV, including vehicle registration. Lancashire Police initially said it was nothing to do with them (!) before finally realising it was and sent out an officer. Long story short, she didn’t do her job properly - and no-one supervised her - so a crucial 14-day period elapsed which meant the police couldn’t effectively take any action and the yob got away with it.
I made a complaint, was promised a call back by her sergeant who didn’t bother calling me. I rang back to complain further and was told an inspector would call me. He didn’t, he just got the sergeant to ring, which was completely unhelpful. I called the Police and Crime Commissioner and was promised the police Professional Standards would speak to me about my complaint. That never happened - I just got a terse email from them repeating what the sergeant had said.
Is this acceptable - no.
Has a criminal got away with it when all the evidence is there on a plate - yes.
Do I think Lancashire Police are good at their job based on my limited experience - definitely not.
A disgrace from woeful start to pitiful end.

DC shah is absolutely incredibly poor at her job. couldnt detect if a lightbulb was on or off and her sgt is even worse and shows no regard for human life nor actual crimes committed. I was assaulted, falsely detained and then falsely attempted to section me when they had to release me and was released by doctors instantly. Unbelievable. do not even call these if your life are in danger you will have a better chance on your own. Have the audacity on top of that to say you wasted their time when they have kept you illegally for no reason because of someones words when they have done it themselves. Absolutely subpar with no regards for law or sections of PACE and do not care for the safety or rights of the public people. refuse to explain things because they have no explanation and act as if it is a playground. there are only two officers i have dealt with that deserve to be officers. the rest need to be retrained in professional standards. Especially in dealing with disabled people and other conditions of extreme mental health/vulnerabilities but they prefer to exploit them.

Famale police officer at Lancashire Constabulary today found it difficult to read. What hope have we got.

Lancashire police are aware of a video showing a Police officer kicking,slapping, & stamping on a man who was face down, The Officer as been put on restricted duties 🙄 but why did the other 3 officer's present stop this dreadful 😳 behaviour l wish l could give them minus stars this is why there's no trust in the police anymore Never trust a police officer gone are the days of respecting POLICE

Unhelpful, rude, inexperienced staff at blackburn greenback police station.. spoke to a female following concerns from a cowboy builder demanding money.. I was rudely interrupted and not able to get my message across, I was spoke to as suspect and I was not helped at all.. I have called on various occasions over the years for concerns or direct issues and the operators at greenbank are unhelpful and lack the knowledge to assist.. I have no faith in blackburn police.. unfortunately even the local police either don't look to be fit healthy and physically able or are small 5ft tall females whom with all due respect would not be able to deal with difficult situations..

I have supplied various CCTV footage of the drug dealers who live next door to me on Loftos Ave in Blackpool.
The police man text me stating your report has been submitted to Intel and it may seem like nothing is happening. (NO truer word was spoken)
6 months later and still nothing is happening. Due to my report against the drug dealers to the housing association and police they have since waged a campaign of terror against me cutting my solar lights repeatedly, slashing my tyres, paying 9 year old children to 'annoy and terrorise me' by stealing my mail and throwing wood in my garden and posting threatening notes to me. All of which has been reported to Lancashire police.
A day after my last report I got a text from the police stating your case has now been closed but if you have any suspects let us know. I do have a suspect, the drug dealer next door.
After my last report which is probably about my 16th now the police didn't bother to call me or investigate they just closed the case and virtually asked me to do their job for them. Thanks a lot.
Instead of arresting the drug dealers and rapists Lancashire police choose to become involved in a neighbourhood dispute where a young neighbour stole my phone and wallet and they are now persecuting me by using the very drug dealers who have terrorised me for the last 2 years as witnesses to prosecute me for assault when all I was trying to do is prevent the thief from stealing my things.
If the police had not taken the sides of the thieves and the drug dealers and set bail conditions I am pretty sure the correct apologies would have been made and this dispute would have already been resolved by now, but for some reason Lancashire police seem determined at every point to take the other side against me like they did at the Norbreck castle when I was attacked by 2 men in front of my 4 year old daughter, like they did when Challoner an ex prisoner kicked my car door then drove after me and rammed my car repeatedly causing my car to be a write off, like they did when I was drugged beaten and raped and they let the guy go and basically brushed it under the carpet.
I have been involved in 4 incidents in the last 15 years, when I call the police they talk to the other side to justify them not talking action and labelling me as the aggressor. When someone calls the police on me because someone has stolen my things I am arrested for assault.
If I am convicted of assault it will set a dangerous precedent for any would be thief or burgular because now the working man and homeowner(Who pays for this service ie the police) can now longer protect his property for fear of prosecution and persecution by the police.
Meanwhile the drug dealers continue to operate in broad daylight where our children play and wage a campaign of terror on me and my property and the police turn a blind eye to this.
