TrustpilotAbused
I am a transgender, disabled tenant. I have been attacked by a neighbour at the property where I live. First she has verbally abused me, later she and her family tried to force entry into my flat, assaulted me and threatened they would be doing that daily. The tenant harrasses me daily wether that is by playing loud bass on short intervals, banging fists on the floor or walls, slamming, throwing objects, shouting. I went to the l&q with an nhs support worker. We were told by the manager 'specialist team' is dealing with this, we were told by a receptionist that they have people who were attacked and noone is doing anything with this. From the moment I moved into the property I had been harrassed by the neigbours because of who I am, l&q did nothing to help. They tell me to take recordings. But I have ptsd I struggle tp even stay st the property plus I cant always record this woman since noise she causing is intentional rather than constant. The l&q is completely missing the point and not listening. They only preffer for the tenant to go to court. The woman above me is not even on full tenancy. What about behavioural contracts, there are things before court that l&q should be able to implement. The disrespect I had experienced from.the l&q who failed to even call her. They only gave me a letter to the council tp make myself homeless. The MP was involved in this last year, they promissed that things will be better. The disrespect of them towards me is enourmous. The fact not being listened to and believed.

TrustpilotWe had the gas xheck booked in June
We had the gas xheck booked in June. Engineer came out and said that because one of the plates on the burners was missing the cooker was unsafe and that he would need to turn it off. He was told no and he refused to finish the check off. New plate was ordered received The same day the gas people arrived stating that a gas leak was reported it was explained to him that no gas leak and showed him what was wrong . He said that the engineer was just a job worth. We then had to rebook another gas check which means another day off work unpaid. Engineer on this occasion was polite and helpful

Hi Michelle, Thanks for highlighting your experience with us. We're sorry to hear there was some initial confusion over completing the gas safety check and this then resulted in a follow up appointment which is far from ideal, especially as you had to take another day off work. It sounds like the engineer who attended on the follow up appointment was able to turn things around by completing the gas safety check, whilst also being polite and helpful. Again, our apologies for any inconvenience caused. Many Thanks Customer Service Team

TrustpilotOver 41 days since handover and no deposit
L&Q/Metraliving's failure to return our deposit (over £2,600) after returning the keys and handing over our property in London is appalling. 41 days since we handed over the keys and still no deposit. We have contacted L&Q/Metraliving on multiple occasions regarding our deposit and the entire process has been painstakingly slow. Upon finally getting ahold of the person responsible for this process, she sent us the paperwork but this had the incorrect address and deposit amount. We rectified it, sent it back, they confirmed receipt and the amount in full as we had no deductions or issues with handover. That was two weeks ago and the funds still have not been released. This person then proceeded to ghost us with no answers or getting us our deposit back. We continued leaving messages and sending emails until the same person responded today with no new information. Completely unacceptable!As I understand, per gov.uk guidelines regarding the Tenancy Deposit Scheme, L&Q/Metraliving have 10 days to make payment from when the amount is agreed. That agreement was signed over 10 days ago (14 to be exact) and we have not yet received payment. They have failed to follow the Tenancy Deposit Scheme Rules and claim they will release the funds but have yet to do so.We are unhappy with how slow and how unresponsive their team have been in this matter. Be VERY weary as this can happen to you too!

TrustpilotThe work wasn't and still hasn't been…
The work wasn't and still hasn't been done leaving my toilet overflowing when I flush. Getting water and faces all over the floor. UPDATE When i had a plumber round he told me that I needed a new toilet as this one is very blocked with lime scale he would have to put in a report. Then a supervisor that had never set foot into the place put a report in saying it was fine.I put in a complaint threatening to go to environmental health. The complaint I put in about this was close before it was resolved. When I questioned this I was told it's company policy To reduce the amount of open complaints to ease work pressure. My thoughts are its to reduce the amount of complaints and falsely show that thay are dealing with them in a timely manner.Thay sent round a drainage company thay where able to do a temporary job but still needs changing. I'm still waiting for an answer to if they will change it. Iv asked a number of times how can a supervisor that's never set foot in the place say that it's working fine. Then leave me with an unhygienic toilet overflowing when I use it. but can't get an answer.I wonder how meany people thay leave in this situation. So far iv lost 3 days wages with this problem and it's still not been resolved. Iv left a 1 star rating as its the lowest i can but it should really be a minus. I must say that the staff I've spoken to are very friendly and caring but still can't believe that I have to fight too have the work done
