‘We Hear You’ focusses on how we are listening to your feedback and taking learnings from complaints to improve our processes and procedures.

Learning from complaints

We view complaints as an opportunity to learn and to be used to improve the quality of service we provide. We understand that there are learnings from your complaint and we’re committed to taking action and improving our services to demonstrate our core values of trust, understanding and care.

Here are some recent examples of how we’ve learned from complaints:

Charlie’s story

Charlie and her family were allocated a new Raven property in October 2023. When they moved in there were some issues, which were particularly challenging due to the additional needs of one of her children. Concerned about these problems, Charlie contacted us to complain.

Having gone through the complaints process and having her complaint upheld, Charlie encourages other customers to complain if they’re unhappy in this video:
