TrustpilotAbsolute crooks!!!
Supposed to be affordable housing... This terrible company use service charge to completely rip off these residents.We live in shared ownership houses and the only maintance that ever needs doing is a very small area of grass to be cut a few times a year. For this they want each household to pay nearly £1000! It was originally supposed to be just over £300 per year. Imagine our suprise when we were given 14 days to pay the rest which the hadn't 'budgeted for'They then completely refuse to talk to anyone on the phone and are unable to provide any breakdown for the costs or explanation why it's 130‰ more than it should be.Obviously a complete con!!Stop ripping off people who can't afford it!! These services are supposed to help people not put them in debt!!!

I can't believe my experience with Orbit and I haven't even moved in yet!! I just sat on a cold floor in the middle of the winter with no heating for 4 hours waiting for someone to come and turn my gas on.....took the whole day off work with NO PAY for this to then be lied to by 3 different members of this horrid team.....to be told that they don't do 'set appointments' for turning gas on, you have to wait in the property for 24 hours??!!! What a JOKE, meant to be moving in on Saturday with a child with Autism but have no heating. Please Norwich City Council take these off your property search!!! They are terrible!!! Won't be staying in the property long, getting out ASAP!!!!

Do not rent or buy a property off orbit I have lived in my orbit house for 7 years and still 7 years later I am reporting mold they don't want to fix the windows when there's a draught coming through they don't want to fix my doors when the doors open or shut properly then it wants her fixed the windowsill that's falling off outside my kitchen window they won't fix the mould and damp that is around my electric metre my children's health is at risk this year alone I've been 38 days without heating because they didn't want to fix my heating then tried to take me to court because I wouldn't pay my rent orbit housing is the biggest joke I've ever known my son has been taken to hospital twice in the past 6 weeks because his Airways are closing up I have tried to speak to somebody and yeah I'm getting told that everybody is too busy and there is nothing they can do to help me but yet are happy to take £100 week rent Bromley from a house that isn't even habitable half of the time I am taking this to the papers and reported it to the local MP this is absolutely disgusting

TrustpilotPossibly the worst housing association…
Possibly the worst housing association in the country, things are constantly breaking or not working and trying to get someone to come out and look at it is next to impossible, Orbit are rude, uncaring and have no concern for their tenants or their welfare. They charge for services, they no longer provide, We've been charged for a window cleaner who hasn't been in several years, We're charged for the upkeep of a gate that spends more time broken than actually working, not to mention their refusal to give you a new key fob, despite the fact that the majority of houses in the mews don't have working ones.They once expected my 85 year old disabled grandmother to squat over a bucket because the toilet that was plumbed in faulty was broken and leaking. After coming home and discovering water leaking through the kitchen ceiling, after further investigation I found it to be leaking from the boiler (The same boiler that is constantly breaking down and has little to no pressure, despite this, they still refuse to replace it) Was told they wouldn't be able to come and repair the leak for a week, Even though it was leaking onto the mains so I had to resort to putting a bowl under it and emptying it every hour or so, when they finally sent someone, it was found that the boiler was leaking carbon monoxide (and had been for a while) and were told by the engineer that we were lucky the boiler had not blown up or caught fire.So we had to have the boiler kept off and it has been turned off for almost 3 weeks now, They booked 3 separate appointments and the first 2, the engineers didn't turn up and didn't inform us they weren't coming, the third appointment was today, the engineer showed up with the wrong parts and hadn't been told what the job entailed so was unable to fix it, after a lengthy phone call in which it was explained that my mother has bowel cancer and it is essential that she is able to keep warm and clean, we were basically told it's not their problem and that we should instead just boil a kettle and fill the bath up that way.We're seriously considering reporting them to trading standards.

TrustpilotNo concern.
How this organisation is allowed to function is beyond me. Put in countless complaints about one of their properties next door where the garden is full of dog faeces. 4 dogs at the property and countless cats interbreeding. Informs me that it is an environmental health concern and that other than writing the tenant a letter, there is nothing they can do. It does not pay, or so it seems, to be an honest tenant. People should not have to put up with trash because a housing association is only concerned with getting it's rent.
Where the same review appears twice we show it once. We leave out reviews that name another agent or another of the brand's offices.
