According to the concierge, the lift engineer Marciac Lift services were not available to service the lift today owing to a family funeral. As such, the fault is still not fixed and the lift fobs are not working.
This effectively means that the one working lift cannot be called to your floor. The engineer is due out shortly after 8am in the morning (8th) so anyone needing to commute some distance tomorrow can forget it.
Whilst this is obviously not ideal with the engineer not available today, we simply shouldn't be at the mercy of one single lift engineer in any case and credit to Marciac, they have done a lot to keep things going as best they can with the shitty lift/s we have.
Same with the concierge staff.
However, despite not being their fault, it’s not the lift engineer or the concierge staff that make the decisions but they do get earache for it. That responsibility and the direction at which the earache should be given falls firmly to the feet of Zolfo Cooper (the buildings administrators) who oversee the building on behalf of the final owner, which is still Barclays Bank we believe. Secondly, the management firm Braemar Estates who run after the day to day stuff.
They can be contacted on the following:

Good luck getting a response as 3 years on, most residents don’t hold much respect for either party. They used to talk a good game and 2 years ago promised that if the lifts needing replacing, than that’s what they (Zolfo) would do, but now emails and phone calls from residents and owner landlords largely go unanswered.
All that can be done is to stop the revolving door of new tenants, unaware of the problems, but whom, in general don’t renew their leases.
Perhaps when City Residential report that people do not want to even view the building owing to its history, maybe then life for all current and future residents will become better.
