MINUS ZERO I HAVE HAD SEWAGE COMING UP…

MINUS ZERO I HAVE HAD SEWAGE COMING UP THROUGH MY BATHTUB AND THE KITCHEN SINK IS BLOCKED. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE IN THE BLOCK THAT I LIVE IN, L&Q ARE AWARE OF THIS AND HAVE BEEN TRYING TO CHARGE RESIDENTS FOR BLOCKED DRAINING! I HAVE HAD BLOCKED SEWAGE AND THE SANITATION IS POOR TISSUE PAPER FROM THE TOILET COMING UP THROUGH THE BATHTUB! FOR OVER A YEAR AND WAS TOLD I HAVE TO PAY 70£ FOR THEM TO COME AND UNBLOCK OTHERWISE. BEING AS THE RESIDENT FLATS ARE ALL INTERLINKED, AS ONE FLAT BECOMES UNBLOCKED THE BLOCKAGE SHIFTS TO ANOTHER FLAT! I AM STILL DEALING WITH THIS ISSUE A YEAR LATER AND L&Q ENJOY TAKING THEIR TIME IN COMING TO ANY ARRANGEMENT. PLEASE DO NOT TELL ME TO CONTACT THE CALL CENTER AS I SPOKE TO SOME DRY WOMAN ON THE PHONE TODAY WHO WAS CONDESCENDING AND UNHELPFUL WHEN I ASKED ABOUT WHEN THE APPOINTMENT WAS MADE, I WAS TOLD THE COMPANY WHO IS SUPPOSED TO BE COMING OUT TO THE PROPERTY THAT L&Q DO NOT HAVE THAT INFORMATION! SO THERE IS NO ACCOUNTABILITY ON L&Q PART!

Hi Meme,We thank you for raising your concerns with us here and offer our sincerest apology if we haven’t provided you with the help and support you hoped to receive from us.We would also like to apologise for the problems inside you home and furthermore for the length of time you’ve had to experience this happening.Internal blockages inside the property would generally fall under our resident’s responsibility to maintain and rectify as when and when needed, however if the blockage is affecting your neighbours at the same time it’s likely there’s a communal issue which of course we hold responsibility for.With this in mind, we would love to investigate this further and have the opportunity to speak with you to gather some more details.Please can we kindly urge you to email us at lqdirect@lqgroup.org.uk and by using ‘Trustpilot’ as your email subject so we can arrange for contact to be made with you.Many ThanksCustomer Service Team

Frustration with L&Q in dealing with complaint and repairs

I concur with the 1 star reviews left by others. It is unlike me to leave a bad review about an organisation but I am forced to do this because there seems to be no recourse to the countless complaints I have raised with L&Q on our communal lift. Over the years it has been breaking down on average every month. The performance has deteriorated so much it stops working a couple of times a week and we're having to keep ringing the call centre to report a repair. I believe the contractor that maintains the lift has had enough! L&Q have acknowledged the lift will need an upgrade and gave the residents the official spiel i.e. Section 20 letter etc but there's been very little management of expectations on timing or plan on this upgrade. So in the meantime, residents suffer a wait of up to 3 weeks or more for a repair because it is the only lift in the entire block. Spare a thought for the sick, elderly and small children who have to climb up to 5 flights of stairs when the lift isn't working. So many residents have complained that L&Q have had to create a complaint scheme to manage their messaging i.e. we're being herded like cattle. I have asked for that complaint to be escalated to Stage 2 on 13th March 2023 due to their unsatisfactory response re Section 20 and I am still waiting for a response. In the meantime the lift has been broken for over 2 weeks after a number of repairs in Jan and Feb this year and we are still waiting for a resolution. Looking across the estate I can name many other communal issues that have been very poorly managed and yet year on year we get a letter from L&Q notifying residents on an increase in service charge. Words cannot describe my frustration because doesn't seem to be a way to hold L&Q to account as their complaints process is so ineffective. I would advise anyone considering buying a property or renting from L&Q to think very carefully before they commit.

NOTHING NEW

After five years of living in an L&Q property I can honestly say that nothing has improved with regards to repairs or the general property management of this organisation. Despite their five year plan to improve the service they provide to residents, they still can’t organise the most basic repairs reported. No matter how many times they change the building manager, the same futile endless attempts to get repairs completed falls on deaf ears. Complain all you want, it won’t change a thing. My moan is about basic repairs to our relatively newly built property but my heart goes out to the people living in L&Q properties in a real state of disrepair. Let’s face it, if your organisation ends up on a Panorama programme about poor quality housing and a local MP Rupa Huq raising residents concerns in Parliament, need I say more!

L&Q have replied to me

L&Q have replied to me. Telling me that they are saddened by the "content" of my review, whilst acknowledging I have ongoing "issues". They requested all of my evidence, so they could investigate it. I find this hilarious, as before when I've forwarded evidence, they've tried to squirm out of it. I have however submitted to them, video and photo evidence. Not that the onus is on me. I don't need evidence to request an investigation, when clearly something is wrong . But have forwarded some evidence anyway. So investigate the evidence I've already given these slum landlords. Ask the people who carried out the work, what they did, and are they responsible for the broken sewer pipe. Ask them if they walked raw sewage through my bedroom, after I had already insisted on coverings for my belongings. Ask them if they dropped a scaffolding bracket, and broke the sewage pipe. Ask them did they discuss breaking the sewage pipe. Ask them if they wanted to repair the damage they caused, without consulting L&Q. Ask them if they told me that L&Q have breached my confidentiality. And then come back to me with their version of events, and we can discuss it like adults. Not that L&Q give a fk.

Had ace scaffolding to my home to…

Had ace scaffolding come to my home to erect scaffolding, to have a sewage pipe "fixed properly" I've only been waiting a year . After they finished I went to check, and found that they had broken the sewage pipe with a scaffolding bracket. For the umpteenth time now, I have an open sewer on my balcony, with the waste of 3 flats, being flushed onto my balcony. Not only that, they then proceeded to walk sewage through my flat. I had the company send them back to look at what they had done. Obviously they denied it. But then why was the scaffolding bracket directly underneath the broken pipe? London and quadrant are uncontactable to even report it. I have photos of everything, and I have voice recordings of ace scaffolding, blatantly lying, because it wasn't until they lied that I told them I was recording. Less than a week after my Sunday mirror story on them. I've had raw sewage issues for more than 9 years now, and it's getting worse. L&Q are a complete disgrace, and a child died because of mould at another property. The scaffolders quickly took the bracket away, but I already had the photos. I have yet an hour long secret video to view of them. L&Q are Absolute scumbags.

Heating since October November 2022

Heating since October November 2022Engineers place orders but nothing happens.My central heating 2022 failed frequentlyAfter several attempts an order was placed today 16 March 2023 and an appointment for 23 March 2023.Great service from H&T Heating, the part was first ordered 16 December 2022.My fuel bills escalated currently the extra amount is above £580.00.I believe both L&Q L and H&T Heating have acted in such a way that I still have no control over my heating. I believe that I should receive compatation for the extra costs of fuel and for the anxiety and depression they have caused.

I am registered as a vulnerable tenant…

I am registered as a vulnerable tenant with multiple health conditions.I live in a L&Q property (house), which is converted into two flats, I am upstairs Flat B, and my downstairs neighbour Flat A. My downstairs neighbour have been temporarily vacated since end of October due to major construction works in her flat. The L&Q contractors stupidly turned off the shared water stopcock/valve on Tuesday meaning I have had no water for two days thus far. The contractors have not been there since. The only tap I have is cold water in my kitchen. An emergency plumber attended my flat Wednesday evening and said/reported back to L&Q that there is nothing they can do without access to Flat A to turn on stopcock and reinstate my water supply. Instead of getting an emergency locksmith to force entry it appears L&Q are waiting for the vacated tenant or contractors to open door to Flat A and then book emergency plumber. Convoluted!! In the meantime I am suffering. Another example of below standard customer care.

renters exercise caution when considering L&Q as a rental company

I have had some difficulties with L&Q as a rental company. It seems that they may not always be helpful or responsive to renters' needs. For example, I have had to follow up numerous times regarding the inventory report, and my emails have been missed or forgotten. As a result, I recommend that renters exercise caution when considering L&Q as a rental company.

The worse experience. I’m writing this review as getting up 6 stairs. The lift has been broken for a week. Last time it happen it lasted for over a month. The building is dirty.

Almost a year later I still have no heating. Now that I have appointed a solicitor to act on my behalf, L&Q has not agreed on a schedule of repairs to take place. I rang L&Q once again, just now, to request they should be going through my solicitors. I was forced into an argument because the customer service agent was talking over me and accusing me of talking over her. Even a simple phone call to customer service to request them, again and again, turns into a huge thing for them. When all they need to do is listen and pass the message on to the correct department that now keeps making appointments without consulting my solicitors. Will this ever end?

L&Q is the worst housing association we have ever dealt with. Our building has been managed by 3 different organisations and L&Q by far the worse. The building in dirty, problems don't get resolved and if they do it takes weeks for them to get repaired. No housing manager lasts for more than a year and on top of everything they want to charge us for works we don't need. Absolutely useless, I will make a general complaint to the government. I'm giving one star because I didn't have the chance to give ZERO.

Overall I am reasonably with L&Q

Overall I am reasonbly with L&Q. However, they don't follow up properly. They have started a so called new initiative to try to get tenants (and I assume leaseholders) to do their job. I was going to join but have decided it's just lip service and an abdication of responsibility. I had a new front door fitted before Christmas which is a disaster. I didn't get what was promised in their confirmation letter but no doubt the sub-contractor has charged them for everything which I have had to buy myself. They were supposed to arrange ti prune my trees (which I did not plant). Someone came to look and I haven't seen them since - no update!

The worst decision I have ever made for my family was moving into a L&Q property.no heating or hot water for years. Unsafe entry into my flat ie doors open for addicts to do drugs in front my door. Stuck hear for ten years and overcrowded with zero chance of a move as can't find anyone on swap sites that want a L&Q property. And can't tell you how much holiday time I have used up waiting for engineers that never turn up but L&Q say i refused entry to the engineer.

Boiler become ineffective for the 4th…

Boiler become ineffective for the 4th time in as many weeks. Engineer has visited 3 times thus far, the last time on Wednesday 14th Dec. The boiler doesn't work consistently when central heating and hot water mode are simultaneously in use - it cuts out after a couple of hours and I have to turn off, reset or wait for it to reset itself. Hot water mode alone works. However since yesterday- Friday 16th December despite my attempts to reset boiler or use in only hot water mode the boiler is not working at all. The blue light hammer symbol is flashing constantly. I left boiler off overnight (2am-10am Sat 17th) - when turned on still not working. I called L&Q and after two hours waiting on emergency repair line to to report I was told I'd have to wait until Monday for gas engineer. I am registered priority, however Monday is the earliest I can be attended to. I have been totally reliant on my electric tower heater for my heating needs for the past 4 weeks - spending £300.00 on electric in 4 weeks as I am unable to offset my heating to my gas central heating due to non- functioning boiler.
