Mears Group / YourMK, YourMK /Mears Group it doesn't make any difference which way round they go, in Milton Keynes they're one in the same and they all hang out with and get paid by Milton Keynes Council at the expense of disabled council tenants. They have always done odd repairs take your pick, a brand new ceiling that has a crack down the middle, fence panels replaced onto rotten fence posts, replacing an old path so of course they block the drain and the whole thing needs digging back up, a broken tap so instead of replacing both they replace only the one and even that is not straight just to name a few. But when your disabled and you have 2 bodged wet rooms, 2 bodged brand new front doors, and now 2 bodged raised access ramps, from a grant that Mears shouldn't of even been using in the first place then you start to think that they are taking advantage of disabled council tenants. So you complain and complete a mystery 3 stage very long complaints process, and the same woman replies at the end of every stage funny how that happens they might as well just have the one stage. So you complain to 20 managers in total from the Mears Group to the council, to your local MP, and the Housing Ombudsman. In the end a disabled woman has to go to court just to try and get some kind of justice, with over 300 pages of evidence over a 3 year period. End result your told to give Milton Keynes council and Mears/YourMk a chance to put things right, so you give them another other other chance and ask for different contractors to do the work. Your told that they are but even now we are left with another dodgy access ramp, built on behalf of Mears by a company called S&S Property Services so Mears said but with no reviews I doubt it. Not happy with dodgy work that won't kill you, now they have started sending annual gas safety people out who aren't even Gas Safe registered. So you complain again to Mears, Gas Safe, even the latest Chief Executive for Milton Keynes Council and well 3 weeks on and It's business as usual for these lot.

    We have been renting a considerable number of properties to Asylum seekers ever since the home office contracts began. We have gone through the teething problems of the Angel Group, right through to Orchard & Shipman, Serco and now The Mears Group in 2019. During this journey, we expected... Read Full Review

When speaking to a very rude member of Mears staff they hung up. I was trying to make a new appointment and was told that i could not cancel the appointment... Read Full Review

    The worse service I have ever came across! After waiting for two weeks for an engineer to turn up, he only came to say it’s beyond repair! Another few days added without hot water and heating... eventually boiler has been fitted and worked for two days! Phoned Meres and I was told they... Read Full Review

    We reported we had no access to hot water on the 16th January as our immersion tank needs replacing - it is now the 28th February (over 6 weeks later!) and they have done nothing. We have a newborn son, which they are aware of, and they have still done nothing. Our local council has contacted them... Read Full Review
