In December 2023 I had my water tank from upstairs burst open causing a leakage downstairs which collapsed my ceiling and damaged my personal belongings. PA housing said that they will refund me the money that I lost in personal belongings. This wasn't easy to get as I felt I was being ignored. I then met my Neighbourhood Coordinator Aquib Mahamed who went above and beyond to help me receive the refund. He kept in touch often to keep me updated... And after some time went by he made sure that the refund was processed into my bank account without further delay. I just want to thank him for all his support in helping me. Thank you Aquib!
I appreciated what he did honestly he’s star

I'm very sorry that this happened to you, particularly that your personal property was damaged and that you felt like you were being ignored until Aquib stepped in. Thank you for bringing this to my attention, your feedback is very much appreciated. I'll make sure that Aquib is recognised for his efforts because it makes me proud that he was able to do that for you.

Thanks again, Sam!

Lies and no maintenance or repairs

Office staff lie on the phone, do not pass information along to workmen, dealing with mold for over 2 years, their surveyor says it's fine and nothing is wrong, windows all need replacing, balcony guard rail collapsing, skylight broken report on mold and they send a guy to try and clean before a surveyor turns up but only did half a job.

The worst people you can ever deal…

The worst people you can ever deal with. I reported subletting the previous neighbourhood coordinator on top of planning a fake investigation told to the perpetrator o reported him. Then at the beginning of 2024 they change management and new neighbourhood came never saw the perpetrator in ten months while the illegal tenant living in the property and never knocked the door to check who was living there. The aftermath was me being threatened with letters if I pursue the matter they will take action against me. What a corrupted people they are. I guess pa housing just didn’t want to spend money to take the perpetrator to court and give the money back to the government once the perpetrator live on benefits. The lesson I learned was we tenants can do anything we want without repercussions, once they collect the rent anything goes.

Good morning,

I'm sorry that you feel let down by the investigation into subletting by your neighbour. I've spoken with my colleagues who are responsible for your case and they have shown me evidence that they have investigated it.

Thank you for raising these concerns as we do take tenancy fraud very seriously. However, I'm informed that the team have found insufficient evidence to take this any further right now. While that doesn't completely rule out subletting, we wouldn't be able to take this to court and guarantee a successful case with the evidence - or lack thereof - that we have.

Kind regards,

Avoid at all costs

After a council house swap I was assured by the previous tenant that PA Housing were on top of repairs. This couldn't be further from the truth. It took probably about 1 year for them to address a major mould problem in an uninhabitable bedroom.
Since then, an old gas boiler continually breaks down, around every 6 weeks we have to go through the process of waiting around 48 hours to get hot water and heating again, for an engineer to temporarily bandage over the problem and tell us we need a new boiler.
They work with Sureserve (formerly K&T Heating) who make you jump through hoops before you can get an engineer, wait for a callback for approximately a day (or stay on the phone in line for an hour or so) to tell you they don't have an engineer until the next day or day after. A complete shambles. I would never have moved to a PA property if I'd have known what chaos awaited.

Good afternoon Phil,

I'm very sorry that you went through this wait and that you couldn't use the bedroom for a year. This is disappointing and not the level of service we aim to deliver. I also apologise for the current issues you're having with your boiler and for the frustration this has caused. I hope we're able to sort a more long-term fix for you soon.

If you're not satisfied and would like an investigation into what has gone wrong, you can submit an official complaint to us at www.pahousing.co.uk/complaints/

If Carlsberg did housing.

If Carlsberg did housing.
PA have adapted our bathroom to fit the needs of our daughter. They went above and beyond what we expected with the speed, quality of work and the best fittings available.
One tradesman managed to fully fit a wet room in 6 days. The finish is breathtaking.
Overall, when we request repairs to the property, the work is completed within 5 days, sometimes less.
We couldn't be happier having PA as landlords.

It's supposed to be social housing but in fact its a corporate profiter from £547 pr month to £985 in 4 years and the services are appalling they use an ai bot to apologise and trust pilot does no check to see if issue is resolved. no faith in PA and Losing faith in trust Pilot who are supporting companies a lot more than people i suppose there is more profit in that.

Good morning Russ,

I'm sorry that you aren't happy with the services we provide and for the significant increase in how much you pay. If you are struggling with this, remember you can always call us on 0300 123 2221 and our team can offer financial support.

Also, I'd like to assure you I'm real (and not a robot... although maybe that's what a robot would say) and I am genuinely concerned about the issues you face. As this is primarily our review platform, I can't be as effective here in resolving issues as it would be if you called us, spoke to your local Neighbourhood Coordinator, or used our My PA app to report them. I hope I've been helpful.

Kind regards,

Extremely frustrated

I am extremely disappointed with PA Housing for failing to address the misuse of balconies by tenants. Many residents are installing clotheslines and hanging messy laundry on their balconies, creating not only an eyesore but also serious health and safety issues.

Hanging clothes on balconies increases the risk of accidents, especially in windy conditions. Additionally, damp clothes hanging outside can contribute to mold growth and poor air quality, impacting the health of residents nearby.

It’s unacceptable that PA Housing has not taken action to enforce the rules or educate tenants about proper balcony use. This lack of responsibility reflects poorly on their management and disregard for the well-being of residents and the overall appearance of the property.

I urge PA Housing to address this issue immediately for the safety, health, and aesthetic quality of the community.
