Victim Support Anmeldelser 

Was assigned a Victim Support IDVA, absolutely useless.

Meant to support and advocate for me, instead did the a few phone calls and then joined sides with a social worker leaving me without advocacy whilst the social worker escalated repeatedly and repeatedly questioned my disclosures if DA to police in official reports.

Would never trust Victim Support or their IDVA Services again.

If you're a domestic abuse survivor don't use their IDVA service, find your own, refer yourself to other support services if necessary.

I went through absolute hell because they referred me to social services and then let the social railroad me without stepping in at all.

I tried to speak to them several time, in particular, Gareth. They were rude. No help what so ever. I absolutely don't see the point of them at all. I thought they were AI robots, they honestly sound like them.
Absolutely useless. I was really in need tonight and they've thrown me back to feeling useless again.

You are left hanging on the phone for ages. Nobody answers. What a dreadful ‘service’.

Very rude hanged the phone down

I'm sorry for most of you victims that have reached out for support from victims support and got nothing, I was one of those people, this place will have you feeling worse, also never share your private information with them as they will turn against you with other departments they are friends with, more concerned about their reputation not the people. Hope this can help others, remember God is good he sees everything. Bless all you victims with love, peace and kindness. 🙏

Unprofessional. I don't recommend as always for the last 13 years!

Filled in online form as advised by police nearly 3 wks ago never heard anything back! I even rang them over 1 wk ago said yes have form someone will contact u in a couple of days still never heard back!

Got burgled last night and the scum stole 3 cars whilst we were in bed.
They tried to steal another but they couldn't get into it.
We've had a black BMW driving past the house for the last day, stopping with blokes inside staring into the house for 5 minutes in broad daylight.

Haven't slept for 2 nights as I'm waiting for them to return as they took a bunch of keys, which includes doorkey. We've changed the locks but they don't know that.
Met police website states that there's a high likelihood that they will return.

Tried ringing Victim Support at 1am for some kind of reassurance. Waited and waited, whilst waiting via online chat and they never bothered answering either.

Waste of space and just a ticking box for the police.

They offer NOTHING for traumatisation

They are not trained .There is nothing they can do .They offer no support and the untrained volunteers abuse victims.
Do not waste your time talking or visiting this service .

SHE PAID ATTENTION OT ME FOR AWHILE
NO SOLUTIONS AS I AM STILL WAITING FOR THE PHONE CALL
USUALLY HEY ARE GREAT.

This is a scam so called "charity" I speak friom bitter experience. I live in N Ireland Iwas 68 in 2023 when I was violently assauted 3 times and one criminal damage So caled "vs NI" knew 2 days later. Dec 24 this scam org sent me 3 forms promising to get me compensation for these which happened 12th Aug 23 . In Jan 25 they resufused 2 days ago their manager abused me by phone. A man David "promised" to help me no contact since I SWEAR ALL IS 100% TRUE

My assailant made this disabled retiree a victim.
Police's inadequate response made me feel like a victim.
Victim Support's lack of response made me feel like a victim.

I had an interview with Victim Support for a job vacancy at Chelsea Hospital. My interviewers were Megan Mohamed and Susan Casey. The interview consisted of two parts: a video call interview and a written test. I was not sent the written test after the video call interview which lasted around 55 minsl and made failed on purpose which is unprofessional and unethical. The interview was arranged by Katie Supporting Futures.

was a victim of domestic abuse, talked with an operator 4 days ago and made a phone appointment to follow-up, no call back, I called them today and they have nothing on record and referred me to another service, no answer. I do need therapy for what I was put through but thankfully not suicidal or self harming but I hate to think what would happen if I was.

feel like I am going around in circles

Terrible place to work, management are bullies.

Exceptionally disappointed by the manner and approach of victim support uk who I connected with following a number of cyber crimes, emotional abuse & civil law incidents reported spanning over 5 years. The operator had no sympathy, empathy and did not listen to how the crimes & civil incidents reported affected me, but attempted to agree with the abusers and abuse/misuse the health system. UK law and civil forces are systematically part of the problem - their computer systems aren’t encrypted enough - on my experience constables and support workers are trained to dismiss anything that goes cooperation malpractice and I am utterly downheartedly dismayed by the conversation I had today with a victim support UK workers and previously police officers who fail to follow-up on a large number of reports (Action Fraud, county police forces, professional standards departments and IOPC) which left me vulnerable, homeless, domestically abused and having my identity stolen by older woman with marginally similar appearances but are at least 10 years older; nor do the police or victim support signpost or provide advice / support in securing the appropriate legal representation. They misuse the mental heath act by detaining and making Merlin reports to reduce their workload and investigations; health staff, patients and fellow victims of negligence can confirm this Victim Support & police forces are a complete and utter waste of time and public spending. Individuals have stand alone in the UK. This is not what we’re taught in schools. Why people look to Britain as inspiration is beyond me.

After having lengthy conversation about my situation, feelings & isolation, desperation , the woman proved she hadn't even taken on board anything I'd explained my health disability by making ridiculous suggestions! No support at all!

Threatened with being stabbed when I asked youths who were trespassing in my garden, smoking drugs to leave. I get a text 🙄 scoundrels are free to run amok as they’re under 18 but should I do anything they’ll soon want to charge me.

It’s time people did the job the police are unable to do for us. When justice is unavailable vigilantism is the only viable option.

Called today emma london helpline said they are not taking aanymore referrals as at full capacity . What total garbage lies

No help at all I was victim of hate crime was told I'd get support at court none at all told me they only do that for serious crimes. Apparently being victim of a hate crime being abused and harassed and attempted assault in front of my 4 year old son is not serious crime. I also stated I didn't know what to do as person been parking outside my house and taunting me even though they live 60 miles away and have no family in area was told if they pay road tax and no bail conditions can do what they want.
Do not ask this charity for support you'll get none yet they are taking donations claiming all victims are important not true.
