I echo what many reviews have said here. The call operator said NOTHING apart from hello crimestoppers, and as I proceeded to report an incident, a racist verbal assault in Blackpool as I walked passed a pub, the call operater hung up on me. What????? This is BEYOND unprofessionalism, it's actually criminal. Unfit for purpose, embarrassing non-existent service, non transparent, untrustworthy and unregulated. Seriously de-fund this despicable fraudulent charity, it's run by dangerous Charletons, a bunch of criminals, needs shutting down NOW. I want to see channel 4 Dispatches investigate these criminals. If you scroll down the page you'll see a the FAKE 5 star review on here, clearly authored by one of it's staff workers. Defending the useless organization based on a weak argument he claims "crime needs evidence." Actually, the 5 star review is Incorrect. Otherwise why would police officers physically attend incidents which reported verbal insults of s sexual or racial or religious / cultural nature, or where a disabled person felt threatened from things that someone said to them, and why would the police investigate or attend a situation where a member of public felt alarmed and distressed by an innocent person filming / taking videos and recording in public spaces in a harmless non-insidious manner. If the public happen to be in the background of the camera shots, it's legal and permitted. We have 24 hour recordings directed at us ALL on CCTV by public authorities and on public transport, so there's no difference. But all of a sudden we see police presence when a person rings 101 because a camera is viewed like a weapon. Therefore, DO NOT tell me that all crimes need evidence. In every case, there is a moral issue, and a legal issue. Stop invalidating people's experiences. Victim Bias Complex, at its finest.
