If the problem persists you can contact the Council via the Licensed activity complaints form. The Council will then investigate the issue in line with the Licensing Concordat of Good Enforcement.
Alternatively, you could contact Consumer Direct|, or from outside the UK The European Consumer Centres Network|.
