Not wanting to help their tenants

Not wanting to help their tenants. I’m disabled, with a disabled child and I have a violent ex partner who harasses us and threatens us. He still comes here. I finally got the courage to boot him out in 2008 after 12 years of abuse, verbal and physical. L & Q knew about this but all they would say is that they can’t do anything unless he actually does something??!! I also have noisy verbally abusive neighbours upstairs and they do nothing about that either. We have an OT report from last year stating that the property isn’t suitable and yet they do nothing. My special needs son had major spinal surgery in September and we were supposed to be moved nearer to my family so they could help, but no, they didn’t, so I had to struggle on my own. I’m having knee replacement surgery soon and they need to get us out before then because I won’t be able to manage, I won’t be able to drive either. I’m taking the issue further, to my MP and the media.

Hi Raven,We welcome your review, and we thank you for taking the time to share your concerns with us.Firstly, we’re so sorry to hear you feel your home is no longer suitable and we’re also saddened to learn about the behaviour from ex-partner as well. We fully appreciate and understand this is a traumatic experience as well as worry for you, and we strongly advise you immediately report any harassing or threatening behaviour to the police.Further to your concerns, we fully sympathise with you for the difficulties you’re facing trying to move to a more suitable property and we apologise profusely if you feel we haven’t provided you with the help and support you hoped to receive from us. Admittedly there’s an extremely high demand for housing which is beyond our control, therefore it can take many months or years for a suitable property to be come available that meets your needs. As a result of this and considering the long waiting times involved, we had no alternative option to close our transfer waiting lists in 2021 which wasn’t a decision easily made. We appreciate this may be disappointing and it’s not our intentions to cause you any upset and as an alternative option we highly recommend a mutual exchange as another option to consider which is deemed to be more successful.If of course you have any further queries or questions, you’re more than welcome to reach out to us and we’ll be more than happy to provide further advice and guidance. Our dedicated team here can be reached by email at lqdirect@lqgroup.org.uk and we recommend ‘Trustpilot’ is used as your email subject on this occasion.Many ThanksCustomer Service Team

The organisation of the contractors is…

The organisation of the contractors is only surpassed by the decision-making processes of my area's admin team in a race to the bottom for performance. Monthly recurring problems, poor use of the service charge levied and clear distain for the resident's committee is only surpassed by the derisory compensation attempts. If this were a kennel (sheltered housing) all the animals would be on life support.

I requested a fire safety certificate from my building over 6 months ago and was promised one within 28 working days and as they advertise of their website. It has never been provided. Post the Grenfell tragedy this shouldn’t be acceptable.This is typical of L&Q actions and as a customer I have the view this level of service is part of their organisations culture.

Always put the customer first

This company doesn't listen well to the complaints of their customers. There are many things they could do better for example when a customer is locked out of their home for whatever reason, the time taken to assist them is set within a four hour window. I found recently that this is not conducive to customers especially during bad weather conditions. L & Q is a large organisation and so they should have operatives available to resolve this matter within an hour and not for people to have to wait so long.

Ignoring the leak

As a leaseholder, I have been experiencing a leak caused by the faulty roof for 1 year. The leak has had extremely damaging effect on my property and to date L&Q staff has been unable to arrange the contractors to repair the faulty roof. If I had known the approach of L&Q, I would have never bought a property managed by them and I sincerely discourage anyone considering to buy with L&Q

AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE

AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUETerrible organisation with terrible culture. Employees of this company have no interest in providing the services L&Q charges their customers for and openly admit that. Instead employees comfortably resort to lying to customers and ignoring customer concerns and complaints.I will be leaving a negative review every day I can be bothered to, until L&Q responds to my outstanding complaints, response to which has now been delayed twice by L&Q.

Disappointed with the L&Q response again!It was not the company who carried out the repair that was the issue, but the delay of 3 weeks before someone contacted me to arrange an appointment. I was told when reporting the problem to the L&Q customer agent, that I would be contacted within 48 hours which I imagine is the organisations response policy, but 3 weeks later come on whats the explanation??!

Diligent employees who know what their doing Get the work done to the highest standards & treat the repairs as if it was their own home At this moment in time I have nothing good to say about L&Q atall apart from maybe 2 ladies I spoke to on the phone who actually listened to me & sent the various emails out to the relevant people higher up in the company

Main front door store being left unlocked

IF you have written to all residents in this building telling them to stop leaving the main front door unlocked .. then it hasn't been effective.So I hope the person doing it... soon has their home broken into here... then they will learn the lesson of making sure that front door is locked properly. If it's my home broken into ...you'll be hearing from a lawyer on my behalf L&Q.

My concern of having a key fob was declined as L&Q said that the building has a Certificate of Secure by Design. That i need to contact Countryside Development. But the design of my flat was not SECURED? Secured of the building BUT not the occupier.
