TrustpilotLog on problems
I couldn't log on despite receiving regular emails. Waited ages on the phone to be transferred to the relevant person - never happened. Filled in a complaint form and got a response after 3 days. I would have thought this should have been resolved much quicker. When I did get a reply it said they could not find my details so had set up a new account. I have been a tenant for 7 years and receive emails from L&Q so I do not understand why they said I was not registered which I clearly was

Hi Samantha,Thank you for bringing this to our attention and we're sorry when you contacted us you were unable to get through to the relevant person.

TrustpilotOverflow Pipe Problem
We have an overflow pipe pumping water into the communal garden. This occurred on the evening of Wednesday, 20th November. It was reported by Resident of Flat B on the ground floor, and myself. Over 2 WEEKS later, this has still not been fixed.Diabolical.

GoogleLiving in a new build which has 10 floors. First list stopped working over a month ago and still not working and now the second lift is also broke and has been for 4 days ! calling L&Q is waste of time as they say its being dealt with but if we are going on the repair times of the first lift then we wont ever have them fixed. No food deliveries will go up more then 2 flights of stairs so cannot even get food shopping. I personally have two babies and so does the majority of the people in this block and we cannot carry 2 babies and prams down alone ! Its disgusting

TrustpilotLong wait for appointment
I reported the repair in early May and the first available appointment was 19th July. To be fair I did say I didn't think it was urgent. The plumber said he wasn't sure what the problem was (banging pipes) but it has improved since his visit so I guess he did something.

TrustpilotAnd still.
Another day I'm expected to live in my home and give others who live here particularly the ones underneath me at flat 5 consideration that I don't get back while their heavy footsteps and door closures are shaking my home ...it's no wonder it's riddled with cracks!And when the male resident goes out and leaves the women he moved in, in his home..he obviously doesn't know what her conduct is.Less than a year ago he was letting people into his home to socialise at 12, 1, 2 in the morning even on weekdays with rowdy behavior, cannabis smell, furniture being dragged, door slamming, loud thuds and voices in the dead of the night then came the newborn baby and this woman moving in.... it's a total joke in our small building of one bedroom flats. I gave London and Quadrant non-stop date and time logs .... and they let it continue affecting my sleep and focus to do my day job for months on end.And that is why I went into detail with the recent request for my feedback and I will continue making everything public via here and social media.

GoogleTerrible. I was with L&Q energy for years. I moved out and was not able to get a response from them via phone / email / complaints for months. Just no reply, on hold for hours and the call would drop.
If you are in this situation you need to call their line and press whatever numbers you can to speak to someone, no matter what department they are from. Then demand that they file a complaint on your behalf and threaten to sue if they don’t. This way they finally filed a complaint and someone from L&Q energy reached out to me.
Awful company.

The engineer who attended was polite and friendly, and genuinely cared about getting the job right.Overall, I am pleased that my toilet flush is now working after such a long time, but it isn't a perfect solution - you have to hold the flush until it is finished.

TrustpilotWork was good but too many delays
Would have been nice if this was done when it should have been originally, then I wouldn’t have ended up with a new kitchen with trunking running round the room. Additionally it would have been better to have independent controls instead of one controller for both windows.
