Update 29 October 2026, 10:28am

The new card reader has yet to be dispatched and is still in manufacture, we have been advised by the supplier this can take up to 30 days.

Once this has been received our pump contractor will then schedule in fitting and testing, apologies for the delay.

We will update further once the reader is received and a date for fitting can be made.

Update 23 October 2026, 10:27am

Please note it is the pump-out only that is affected. The Elsan is still in use.

Update 13 October 2026, 9:46am

Upon attending to the damaged hose, our contractors were not able to test the pump out as the card reader appears to have been vandalised.

A new card reader will need to be ordered and then once this has arrived our contractors will schedule in reattendance for fitting and testing.

We are not able to advise a time frame at present but will update further in due course.

Original 12 October 2026, 11:52am

The Pump Out is currently out of order due to a damaged suction hose.

Please bear with us whilst our contactors deal with a replacement.
