I'm a leaseholder to a housing association.
I could write a novel about their incompetence but after noticing how filthy our communal areas were getting, I made more of an effort to find out what the cleaning company responsible were doing (by spying through the spy hole when they arrived).
They've visited once a week in January and so far week 1 and 2 came in and signed the task sheet and left without doing a single bit of cleaning. Week 3 wiped a couple of patches of mould which had been there for months and week 4 wiped the immediate entrance with the strongest disinfectant I've ever smelled but didn't do any other tasks.
They've not been upstairs once in these 4 weeks, just cleaned once a small patch by the entrance.
So far, over 4 visits, they've been here for a total of 8 minutes!
I've reported that I've seen this happening and keep getting told that they will have a word.
Last year I was charged £300ish for this non existent cleaning but it's virtually impossible to get anyone to actually reply to any messages.
AIBU to think this is an absolute con but also I'd love to know about other people's experiences with their HA and if they've ever managed to take any successful action.
