Make sure when you do ring them that you ask for a log number. If they say they don't have one yet tell them you will wait on the phone while they do. I have had them try this, I think they would have just put the phone down and done nothing if I had not insisted on a log number. The log number is generated when they enter the call details onto their system, you know they can't ignore you then as you can always call back later for an update and quote the log number back to them.
Then each time you call them for the same type of incident quote that first log number. They don't like this and will try to create a new log number when you call, don't let them, tell them it is an ongoing problem not sorted out since your first call. By keep insisting they use the same log number it makes it look like it is an ongoing problem and makes the Police look like they are doing nothing to sort out the problem. I think it affect's their all important statistics
