We aim to provide the highest standard of service to all our tenants at Manchester Apartments
In order to ensure that your interests are safeguarded, we have put in place a set process by which any raised complaints are handled; this allows us to handle any issues or concerns effectively and wherever possible, as soon as they are raised.
Making a complaint
Stage One – Contact the Property Manager/Member of Staff that you have been dealing with
All complaints should, in the first instance, be directed by telephone, in person or by email to the property manager or member of staff that you have been dealing with. They will endeavour to resolve your complaint as soon as possible, otherwise no later than five working days from when they received notification of the issue.
Stage Two – Request your complaint to be escalated
If you are not satisfied with the resolution offered by the Property Manager from Stage One, you can then request your issue to be escalated to the Head Of Lettings:
Dannielle Britt (dmb@mapartments.co.uk)
Manchester Apartments
60 Oxford Street
Manchester
M1 5EE
Dannielle will then acknowledge your escalation within three working days, conduct a thorough review of your case including speaking with the various departments involved to establish all the facts, and then come back to you with a response, in writing, within 15 working days to inform you of the outcome and ask if the suggested resolution is to your satisfaction. If any further time to is required to resolve your concerns you will receive confirmation in writing and will be offered a final viewpoint once communications have reached a conclusion. We treat all complaints received in a fair and unbiased way and they are kept confidential at all times. If we do not hear from you within 8 weeks of receiving our final response, we will assume that the matter has been resolved and we will close the complaint file.
