What happens next?
We will always try to resolve your complaint in the first instance over the telephone but if this is not possible, and we need time to look at it, our Complaints Team will thoroughly investigate your complaint. They will acknowledge that we have received your complaint and will send you a full response. The timescales for complaints can be found in our Complaints Policy.
We handle complaints in line with the Housing Ombudsman’s Complaints Handling Code. Read our most recent self-assessment - this sets out how we are performing against the code.
If after we have investigated your complaint, you are not satisfied with the stage one response, you can ask for your complaint to be escalated to a stage two review, stating the reasons for your dissatisfaction. The Senior Complaints Lead or another senior manager will undertake a detailed review and investigation to ensure that your complaint has been handled in a fair and appropriate manner. They will send you a full written response.
The Housing Ombudsman Service
If after the stage two review, you remain dissatisfied with the way we have handled your complaint, you can contact the Housing Ombudsman Service directly. Get in touch with them via the methods below:
