The Housing Ombudsman’s role at this stage 

Your complaint is at the Dispute Support stage of our complaint process. 

Our role at this stage is to provide assistance to both parties and ensure that you are able to complete the landlord’s internal complaint procedure. 

Before the Ombudsman can consider a complaint, we must be satisfied that you have completed the landlord’s complaint procedure. In the first instance, the Ombudsman encourages tenants and landlords to resolve complaints using the landlord’s internal complaints procedure. This often provides for the quickest and most amicable way of resolving a dispute. 

Action taken

You have informed us that you have made a formal complaint to your landlord about your concerns but have not received a formal response.

We have therefore written to the landlord and asked it to respond to your complaint by contacting you within the timescales set out in the landlord’s complaint procedure or 10 working days. The landlord should therefore contact you by 19 August 2022 – 10 working days from today.

What are the next steps?

No Written Stage 1 Response Received

At this stage, we will not be taking any further action on this complaint. If you do not hear back from the landlord within 10 working days, please contact this Service and we will chase the landlord for a response.

Stage 1 Response Received

If you receive a response, but you remain dissatisfied, we recommend that you formally escalate the complaint to the next stage of the complaint process.

Alternatively, if you are satisfied with the landlord’s response you do not need to refer the complaint to the Ombudsman.
