To call them absolutely appalling is… To call them absolutely appalling is quite generous of me. They just cannot seem to do a thing right when they eventually attempt to do anything at all. There has been a leak from the toilet of the flat upstairs on 2 occasions now. I have reported the fact my toilet, next doors and the flat aboves are faulty and not functioning properly and on occasion leak. The last leak drenched my carpet I was told a dehumidifier would be sent. After using towels to soak up as much water as possible and chasing up the dehumidifier for 2 weeks the carpets stank. When I finally spoke to someone I was told the carpets were destroyed and that they would pay for replacements. 5 months later nothing has been done about the toilets or the carpets. They don't empty gutters, we (4 tenants) each pay £20 a month service charge for maintenance of the communal areas the gardeners spend no more than 15 minutes a month at the properties they are bad mannered, lazy, useless and usually leave the commual areas in a worse state than on arrival they let the weeds grow through the flags up to a meter tall, when after many complaints a representative of the company phoned me and said he would come and check/audit there work next time they came and that he would contact me before hand so I could be there. They have since been twice and I never heard from him again . When they do send maintenance workers they destroy property. And there is now a considerable rat presence that has been reported on many occasions but not acted upon. They fail to communicate with me or each other. And to add insult to injury send news letters claiming to aim for excellency. The response below states they take all complaints very seriously, it could not be less accurate unless they mean they take the complaints been aired publicly seriously. They certainly don't act on complaints. The response also suggests I contact customer services which again is adding insult to injury as I have done so many many times. They clearly think my time is worthless. I still have not heard a thing from them regarding any repairs, the rat problem, the faulty toilets or the gardening problem.

Johnnie Johnson...notoriously the worst H.A. in Manchester if not the northwest!!! If i could give no stars, i would. So far, my elderly mum has been continuously let down at every given opportunity and has been sheer hell for her ever since she moved in over two years ago. She has a very important appt tmw with managers and staff regarding what can be done for her. Lets see what happens...this time! Update coming soon.

JJH astra Line a disater. Last night Friday the 28th October the fire alarm went of at approx 20.30, the fire brigade attended, no damage done, but they could not reset the fire alarm?? They contacted Astra Line (who are a total waste of time, there response time on calls is not acceptable) they could not give the fire brigade a code to reset the fire alarm, they said they could wait any longer and left. I tried to contact Astra Line who answered my call after approx 5 minutes. They said a engineer was on there way but could not give a time. A electrician from FORTEM came about 22.00 but could do nothing, again contacted Astra Line and said another engineer was on there way, but again could not give a time. Finally the fire alarm was switched of this morning the 29th at approx 03.30 that is 7 hours of constant noise.(This is not acceptable) Also when the fire alarm went of 2 fire doors did not close?? At this moment in time JJH leave a lot to be desired. Our ILC is of sick at the moment,as I said before Astra Line want to get there act together, when you pull your cord in your flat and takes up to 10 minutes to answer if you were ill you could be died before they answer. JJH Please get your act together we pay a high service charge, and get nothing for it.

I have been a resident at Sealand House… I have been a resident at Sealand House in Prestwich since January 2015, when l came here it was a nice, clean place to live. Since Yvonne Castle took over as C.E.O. the standards have gone down hil then along came Fortem, we had our cleaning hours cut back and the standard is not as good as we had before, some areas are getting cleaned may be once a month sometimes every two months, where as before all areas were cleaned twice a week. We had our window cleaning service reduced with some windows on the outside not cleaned for over two years and the sevice has still not improved, the previous window cleaners cleaned all the outside and all the inside communal areas. We had a handy man who came every Monday, washed out the refuse bins when emptied, cleaned th bin rooms, washed the outside light fittings, swept the pathways and cleaned the recycle bin area, although we are still paying for the five hours each Monday we have had five hours of the handy man in over two years. Each year our charges have gone up yet the service jhas not improved all jj housing can say is things are getting better, I reported the situation to the Housing Ombudsman qwho have upheld my complaint.
