TLF survey

We're really committed to hearing about your experience of dealing with us, as this will help us improve the service we provide for you. We’ve just started our next round of perception surveys and this year we’ve moved to a mixed methods approach to enable customers to respond by email or by telephone. This'll help us gather feedback from a broader range of our customers (whether they have had a recent interaction with us or not).
 

All housing associations are required to survey their social housing residents using the same set of Tenant Satisfaction Measures (TSMs) questions, prescribed by the Regulator of Social Housing (RSH), asked in the same way and in the same order. Having a consistent set of questions will better help us and the Regulator identify where we need to improve and where we are doing well. VIVID and all other housing associations must report our results to the Regulator.

We published our 2023/24 results in our Customer Annual Review hereWe’re due to publish our 2024/25 our Customer Annual Review shortly so please look out for that.

  • TLF Research are an independent market research agency who carry out the perception survey on our behalf
  • The survey will take place from the beginning of May through to the end of June. If you receive a phone call or an email, we’d be grateful if you would take the time to provide your feedback

We analyse your feedback to draw out trends and recurring issues. This then feeds into our ongoing improvement work. We embrace all kinds of feedback, as without knowing where we've gone wrong, we'll never be able to improve.

Your feedback is very important to us. Last year you told us we need to call you back when we say we will, carry out repairs quicker and keep better notes on our system to avoid you having to repeat yourselves. We’re focusing on improving those things and are looking to make further improvements to other areas of our service in 2025/26.

Please be aware that any dissatisfaction you may express through our surveys will be analysed to identify common themes to inform where we need to make improvements but will not be treated as an individual complaint.

If you do wish to make a complaint, you can find out more in this article
