Complaints

We want all of our residents to be completely satisfied with the services they received. If you are not, we want you to tell us about it so we can put it right if possible and learn from our mistakes.

Our commitment:

When you complain:

  • We will listen and put it right immediately if we can.
  • If we can’t, in writing we will send you an acknowledgement to you within 3 working days, responding to you within 10 working days telling you what we have done to put it right or why we can’t do what you want us to do.
  • We will tell you how you can complain to the Independent Housing Ombudsman.
  • We will use information gathered from your complaints to improve our services and tell you annually what actions we have taken.
