Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
aftersales shockingly poor. Customer service team ill equipped to handle basic queries. Offered site visits to show/explain and highlight the issues. No responses
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
I wish i had known how poor the customer service and aftersales team were. I've wasted so much time and effort trying to engage with them. Execs at the top not interested and wont reply to letters. Pointless, toothless process/team.
What is the best feature of your home:
Not sure why this is relevant to posting a poor performance review of Hill Residential.

Please tell us about the good and bad aspects of living in your local area:
Dirty, lots of traffic noise from motorcycles. Antis -social behaviour from non-residents. Rubbish everywhere.
How has the building management responded to any problems or issues you have raised:
Very badly. Do not respond at all, or respond so slowly and not in a helpful way. Fire alarms going off and no light bulbs on arrival when I moved in. Had to buy my own battery replacement and light bulbs. No one able to tell me what kind of light bulbs Had no water for >48 hours.
Please share one thing (or more) which you wish you had known before you moved in:
Smelly and overpriced. I would have to pay for private parking for a week because they wouldn’t get back to me about the residents parking
Manager response
Thank you so much for taking the time to leave your review and I am very sorry that you have been having issues with your home. Please can you contact hello@lloydsliving.co.uk with your details and I will get one of our management team to pick up with you directly so hopefully they can personally resolve your issues.
