I've had problems recently with an estate agent in Honor Oak, who have been refusing to take down their "let by" signs weeks after the new tenancies have begun.

I've been in touch with the council who have confirmed that all estate agents are obliged to take down their signs 14 days after the property has been sold or let. If like me, you're fed up with seeing these signs up for weeks on end, tackle the agents and if they refuse, get in touch with Lewisham's Planning Enforcement Dept who have been very helpful.
