Call Centre
Torbay Council's Call Centre is based at Roebuck House in Torquay and is open 6 days a week - see the opening times below:
- Monday: Friday 8.30am - 5.30 pm
- Wednesday: 9.30am - 5.30pm
- Saturday: 8.30am - 12pm
The Call Centre deals with a wide variety of calls including, but not limited to, the following:
| Housing/Council Tax Benefits | 207201 |

In December 2007 a new telephony system was installed to improve our service to customers. This system enables us to manage our calls more effectively:
- easier access for customers to contact the Council
- 90% of customers get through to an operator first time
- average waiting time of under 1 minute
- we offer an out-of-hours messaging service
All customer contact received via our Call Centre or our Connections offices is documented** to ensure the information is actioned by, or forwarded to, the relevant department, as necessary. Should you contact us at a later date we are able to access all previous enquiries you have made. This provides up-to-date information regarding the progress of your enquiry.
Key Facts:
- We aim to resolve 80% of your enquiries at the first point of contact.
- We answer up to 1,900 calls per week
- Saturday mornings are our quietest time
