GBJJH HANG YOUR HEAD IN SHAME Nothing can be worse than the way JJH run their housing association and the care and welfare of tenants. As far as the Tenancy Agreement goes, its not worth the paper is it written on. Where I live, JJH have broken every part of their responsibilities in the Tenancy Agreement. Including tenants health and safety, poor maintenance, allowing some tenants to continue using drugs and cause discomfort and distress to other tenants. Since I moved in 7 years ago, there has been a serious issue with the emptying of refuse bins. It can be weeks before the general waste bins are emptied. Bags of rotten food are left on the floor. When the bins are emptied, maggots can be seen in the bottom of the bins as they have never been washed-out in the time I have lived here - 7 years!! Then there is the smell which is though-out the building. It's an absolute disgrace. I’m not surprised that there is a big turnover of staff. How can they be expected to do a proper job when their hands are tied behind their backs. So, I won’t be holding my breath that things will be any better when JJH are taken over by SanctuaryHousing I live in Holly Bank House, Lindley, Huddersfield. A block of 15 flats in a lovely area.There are some lovely, kind and friendly tenants here. But recently there has been tenants that have caused problems. To the point of some tenants being frightened, stressed and intimidated. It seems that the rule is now to mix problem tenants with elderly, good tenants and hope they fit in. That is never going to happen here. There have had some help from some good JJH staff, but they have left because they were over stretch in covering too many areas, unable to carry out work due to ‘too many chiefs and not enough Indians’ and no job satisfaction.

GBTruth Hi I just thought I would update my review from the 22nd of November. I rand JJ on the 23rd and after a palaver I managed to speak to z person, yes you heard me right I real life living breathing person. This same person promised me that they JJ my complaint very serious and that JJ wanted to solve the problems of drug use and sale from their property. I was told that someone will ring me back from the super efficient crack team of awesome problem solvers immediately. As you can imagine I was in awe of this amazing response and after putting the phone down felt safe and secure all my problems will be over soon and I will live in peace and security all thanks to my caring gracious and all round great landlord. What actually happened is I felt more let down and deflated that the party baloon that manages to hide behind the couch until only found when you realise your mother in law is coming over and the house needs to be cleaner than a surgeon's knife. In other words after another weekend of the communal areas smelling like a coffee shop in Amsterdam I still am waiting for a call back. I would love to say I am shocked but that would be a lie and make me no better than JJ. Please consider your options when offered a home from JJ as there are better options out there.....I have heard Guatanemo Bay has some room available so pick carefully. I now await my next genetic email 😪

GBAvoid, avoid, avoid The happiest day of my life occurred on 27th September 2022 when I finally completed the sale fo my 50% share in a JJH house. We lived in it for almost 10 years and during that time, despite paying a monthly service charge of over £50, and never being behind in our rent, they have done absolutely nothing. We had to plead with them to clear the gutters which, because our property backed onto a wooded area, filled with leaves on a regular basis throughout summer and Autumn. Eventually I told them they would have to pay for any damage done to my property in the garden, and in the house as a result of damp, and they finally sent someone up to clear them. They were supposed to spray the drive annually with weedkiller. By the time they got to our house the mixture was so weak it was totally ineffective so my husband used to do it properly. The staff turnover is enough to tell you how bad this company is. They never get back to you if you phone, and the cheek of having a recorded mesage boasting about their "excellent customer service" is just a joke. If you can find an alternative to JJH just go for it, but avoid this company if you can.
