Bin there done that!

The Leeds bin app has single-handedly helped my relationship. No more discussions about when the bins need to go out! Handy notifications and up-to-date, accurate data make sure our bins are always put out on time, especially when the schedule changes around bank holidays.

Stopped working at my address

I have used this app for years, letting me know if it was green, black or brown bin day. This evening it’s saying that my address doesn’t exist, and I must live in a block of flats. I live in a house!
What has happened to the app.
This needs sorting out asap !
