Mythop Village Weeton and United Utilities

Mythop Village during power outagesThis little idyllic hamlet located within the Weeton with Preese Parish suffered 16 power outages in December.After a meeting with a charming couple I decided to help. After many phone calls to the electrics management of United Utilities and many and various excuses such as 'the problem is under a motorway' 'the problem has been low flying birds' to name a few Mythop Village was re-connected with modernisation.

I wrote to the Electrics Manager of United Utilities and was informed that they residents just fall short of the compensation threshold.

I have now escalated this to our MP Michael Jack for some assistance in securing a token compensation.

Further outages have taken place and further letters have been sent to United Utilities

The group of residents led by Mr & Mrs Baldwin took this complaint to the ombudsman.Sadly the outages fell just short of the compensation metrics.

Every credit must go to the residents of Mythop Village Weeton for their co-ordinated appoach in dealing with United Utilities 

The saga of Mythop Misery continues.
