Not even 1* this company needs 0*.
The way Jigsaw Homes Ashton-under-Lyne treats the elderly tenants is despicable, accusing them of being violent and dangerous and drug taking/dealing (72 year old female pensioner by the way) Pamela Hollingsworth is the absolute trash of the staff, she accused my mother of stealing her car and house keys, threatened to call the cops and have her arrested, she had purposely left them in the property as there was no other way they would have been where they were when found.
When she returned she demanded the keys back and snatched my mothers phone off her and referred to me as a mental headcase because I was on the open line the whole time listening to what was going on, i was gobsmacked to say the least. The person needs to either be sacked on the spot or completely retrained to learn some basic human decency. Rumours are going around now which is resulting in the property being vandalised multiple times. They will not allow a drug test to be taken to prove my mother's innocence.
They have placed her on the CAT 1 and CAT 2 preventing her from finding anywhere else to live. Hollingsworth tried to get to the 80 Year old female next door to go down to jigsaw offices and say she was a bad neighbour and tenant, which she refused to do so because it is untrue. They are trying to alienate the pensioner residents from each other. My mother has never been violent, abusive or dangerous nor taken a single drug nor sold one in her entire 72 years of her life.
Mike Holt has continued to follow this nodding dog as he is her superior. He has failed to speak to my mother to find out what actually happened that day. He's a disgrace as well.
Health and safety assistant director Mrs C Garner wrote to her and stated they will never remove the CAT 1 or CAT 2 off her account recently.
I will be seeking legal advice on behalf of my mother. The way they are treating her is wrong and disgusting. They should be ashamed of themselves.

TrustpilotI would like to thank Jigsaw Homes for…
I would like to thank Jigsaw Homes for supporting me throughout my housing process. I am especially grateful to Caroline Wright, who dealt with my case and helped me every step of the way.
Caroline was always kind, patient, professional and understanding. She explained everything clearly, kept me updated and made the whole process much easier during a very stressful time in my life. She always treated me with respect and made me feel that my situation genuinely mattered.
I am extremely happy with the service I received from Jigsaw Homes. Caroline went above and beyond to help me, and I truly appreciate everything she has done. She is a credit to Jigsaw Homes, and I would highly recommend their service to anyone needing housing support.

The whole process was very quick, straightforward and professional from start to finish. Michelle Swanson was absolutely brilliant throughout, keeping me informed, answering any questions and making the whole process as stress-free as possible. The handover was smooth and professional, and I’m extremely happy with my new home. A great experience with Jigsaw Homes and a big thank you to Michelle Swanson for all her help.

TrustpilotMichelle swanson is the best housing officer we could have asked for
Due to antisocial behaviour, jigsaw approved a management move, the process was long and a little frustrating because if delays due to works needing to be done on the new flat, but throughout the whole process our housing officer michelle swanson has been an absolute rock, chasing updates and keeping us informed along the way, her transparency took a lot of the difficulty out of it, shes been in our corner the whole time advocating for us, going above and beyond her standard duty to ensure that we were taken care of as the voids team got the flat ready for us. Even though we were waiting a very long time (hence 4 stars) Michelle has been an absolute angel, making the process as painless as possible. We are incredibly thankful for having her as our housing officer, anyone who works with her are lucky indeed.

TrustpilotJigsaw or should i say Nazi party.
WELL, where do i start? I have been a tenant of jigsaw homes since june 2020, and what a disgraceful 5 years and 8 months it has been. When we moved in we found out that the house has never had fresh plaster in the 126 years it has been standing. This house was built in 1920 and still had all of its original plaster. So fast forward 126 years later 3 rooms have been re plastered. But not all after taking them to court they agreed to do the work that needed doing. It took them a month to do 3 rooms in january 2022. After they completed them 3 rooms they said we will have to come back at a later date and finish the work because we are needed at a new build site for the new houses. Which was fine because they said they would return and and complete the agreed work.

Trustpilot100%
This is my second review of this company. Must say I cannot fault the teams who are employed by them. I moved into one of their properties and my move went smoothly with all help from the site Manager - since that time we now have a new site Manager "Debbie" who took over the post from Shelley.
Debbie is just as professional and helpful as Shelley was, availale if needed, keeps the residents fully advised of all comings and goings, handles any concerns with care and empathy her door is open should there be a problem so again another faultless member of the Jigsaw team. I had a problem with the closer on my door the repair was handled immediately, unfortunately a replacement was needed not a repair but one hour after the carpenter left I received e mail saying the replacement part was ordered and job raised giving me a date and time of the next visit.
All in all another fab Site Manager (on the ball) so thank you Debbie for your help kindness and assistance. AND to the Jigsaw team of telephone assistants well done all of you for the same kindness and maybe tolerance LOL we old folk struggle at times

TrustpilotJigsaw screw ups.
This housing association has to be one of the worst in the country,the staff are nothing but barefaced liars and as for their maintenance teams they are useless idle skivers.I have the misfortune to be one of their tenants who has been waiting since February for two double glazing units to be replaced, not a difficult job to do but it seems these imbeciles are incapable of getting it done. I live in a cul-de-sac and have watched another two properties have their entire windows and external doors replaced while I have been waiting for my units to be replaced. It seems obvious that I'm being discriminated against because I have the balls to complain about these bullies.

Hi Patrick. Thank you for providing us with feedback. We appreciate that it can be frustrating waiting for works to be carried out.
However, we manage thousands of homes and deliver a wide range of responsive repairs, safety works and planned investment programmes across the North West and Midlands. The fact that other properties have received different works does not mean your repair has been overlooked or that you are being treated differently.
We take allegations of discrimination seriously and can assure you that repairs are not prioritised based on whether a resident has made a complaint.
We would be happy to look in to your repair, for you. Please provide your details via the Trustpilot request we have sent.

TrustpilotThis company is terrible to deal with
This company is terrible to deal with, they will not allow you to keep a leisure caravan/trailer at your property that you are paying rent for. If you ask up front they will deny you. You try to go through the correct channels/process and they refuse point blank. So if you own a vehicle like this and are looking for a home to rent, look for a different housing association and check with them before taking up residence. It’s already expensive enough to get away on holidays and short breaks, but then they won’t allow you to have a means of doing this. It’s a breach of human rights on their part. Well to your reply, there are at least 50% of the residents living there that have/need the ability to be able to have these types of vehicles there.

Hi Mark. Thank you for your feedback. We understand that you are disappointed with the outcome of your request.
Jigsaw's policies relating to the storage of caravans, trailers and other vehicles are in place to help ensure estates remain safe, accessible and well maintained for all residents. Requests are considered in line with these policies and the circumstances of each location.
We appreciate that this decision may not have been the outcome you were hoping for and thank you for taking the time to share your views.

“Cadent attended my home due to a gas leak and capped my gas supply. I was left with no hot water, no heating, and children who needed washing for school. When I contacted Jigsaw Homes, I was repeatedly told to ‘call back tomorrow’ even though Cadent confirmed it was an internal pipe leak, which is Jigsaw’s responsibility. The lack of urgency and empathy was extremely disappointing, especially after a dangerous situation. Families should not be left without hot water or support.” very disappointing

Hi Saiqa. We are sorry to hear about the disruption caused following the gas leak and subsequent capping of the gas supply. As responsibility for repairs can vary depending on the location and cause of a leak, we are unable to comment on the specifics of this individual repair in this forum. We appreciate the impact that being without heating and hot water can have on a household and have noted your concerns regarding the communication and service you received.

TrustpilotNot disability confident in the slightest. They trigger. Attack and dont investigate.
Not disability confident in the slightest. They do t want proper job done. Managers are protected and things not investigated. Note to files given and you are told that this is not disciplinary. But i can be used against you. They dont like questions or you wanting to learn.they want you to do as your told and dont care for the quality of people jobs or lifestyle. Of there tenants or employees. Once your in a jigsaw home if you complain alot your talked about in the office. Dont work for them. Dont matter how much your change. they make you the issue. They will still find away to protect the hierarchy and lie.
I tried to do all i could and still even with facts they dont want to no.
Rules for one and rules for another. People cant where shorts cause of chemicals but teams who use worst stuff can.
There professional boundaries training is a farce as they say u cant live where you work. But people do. But then u have to move area but some havent. Luke they just make there own rules up. And come together before they try to manipulate situation and just do without question.
They mislead. Dont work for them. They have buildings that havent ben fire safe for over a year. With over 3 floors. And would rather harass tenants that solve the issue of providing bo storage. Yeat they put families in these buildings. And bo what will come. They dont solve there problems. They create more problems and doors.
When they create these issue and ongoing issues. With send formalities around in circles. But thwn its your fault when you get frustrated with all the tenants coming at you cause noone is dealing with the issues. Just passing the book.
They argued for a week over a grid that went to nowhere and who should clean it .
