Monthly Performance & Customer Satisfaction

Here you can find out how we're performing against our targets each month

Performance in May 2026

Percentage of money lost due to rent arrears (general needs): 3.26%

Target not met - Our target is 2.9%. 

Rent arrears exceeded the target by 0.36% (£76,550) at month end. However, by the following week, arrears had reduced significantly to 0.06% (£12,889) above target.

This is because monthly direct debit payments were processed in the week after month end. Universal Credit payments were also lower than expected, and this is being investigated with the Department for Work and Pensions (DWP).

Percentage of customers satisfied with call handling: 93.5%

Target met - Our target is 93%.

About this data
After every call to our Customer Service Team, we send a quick text message asking how satisfied customers were with the help they received.
Responses are scored on a scale of 1 to 5, and customers can also leave comments to share more about their experience.

This information is collected separately from our Tenant Satisfaction Measures (TSMs) and helps us understand how well we’re meeting customer needs in real time.

Percentage of customers satisfied with the repair service: 86.3%

Percentage of homes with a valid gas safety certificate: 100% 

Target met - Our target is 100%

Percentage of money lost due to empty homes: 0.93%

Target not met - Our target is 0.80%

During May, we let 10 homes that had major refurbishment work completed before they were ready for new customers. This work took between 51 and 170 days. Most of the homes needed damp repairs, as well as new kitchens, bathrooms and heating systems.

Completing this work meant the homes were empty for longer, increasing the amount of money lost.

Housing and Property Services colleagues have agreed an action plan to reduce the time it takes to re-let homes. 

Average time to let an empty home (general needs): 19 days

Target met - Our target is 24.2 days
