The supplier of our case management system has confirmed that they are experiencing a significant technical issue.

At present, we have no access to the case management system and we are currently unable to provide updates on existing cases.

We are planning on the basis that this could continue for a period of time including for the remainder of this week.

Decision Report 201602110

  • Case ref:
    201602110
  • Date:
    June 2017
  • Body:
    Queens Cross Housing Association Ltd
  • Sector:
    Housing Associations
  • Outcome:
    Not upheld, recommendations
  • Subject:
    repairs and maintenance

Summary

Mr C complained that the housing association did not respond reasonably to the complaints of smoke that he brought to their attention.

We found that the association responded reasonably and in line with the requirements of their Repairs Policy and Complaints Procedure. We also felt that the association were particularly supportive of Mr C's requests for appointments at a time that suited him.

However, we made a recommendation as we considered that the association could be clearer about whose responsibility it is to report concerns about a gas appliance.

Recommendations

We recommended that the association:

  • review their repairs policy and consider whether further detail is required regarding the reporting of concerns about gas appliances.
