Some examples of how we have improved our service as a result of taking your views into account include;
• New grounds maintenance contract agreed - Following negative feedback about the standard of work experienced by our residents.
• Introduced under occupation incentive scheme – We received feedback from a lot of residents that they needed to move to a bigger property so we are using this scheme to encourage those who live in larger houses and do not need the extra space to consider down sizing.
• Moving home guide – Created in response to large numbers of calls from customers wanting to know what they needed to do when leaving their home or moving into a new home.
• Repairs service review - In response to feedback from residents via complaints and our repairs satisfaction survey we are currently reviewing our repairs process with residents.
These are just a few examples of the on-going service improvements that we have made by listening to your comments and learning from the complaints we have received.
Thank you all for your input in improving our services to you.
