Been Trying To Get Someone To Help For 4 Months

Have been trying to get an issue resolved for 4 months now, every time we contact someone we're told it'll get passed on and someone will be in touch, never happens. We're calling at least once a week at this point, often more, and I don't know what to do anymore, nobody seems to want to help. Also had lots of issues trying to move in, was told we couldn't move in on the date our tenancy started because originally the keys from the last tenant hadn't arrived to the landlord in time, then we were told it was because the builders hadn't finished everything in the kitchen and it was unsafe (the only things that needed doing before we moved in was installing the fridge and the extractor fan, they had about a month to do this from putting down the deposit to moving in), and then we were told the landlord hadn't sent the keys yet, and they might be here in time, but they might not. We were told all of this this the day before our move in date, we'd already hired help and had furniture deliveries coming. In the end we got the real reason from someone else at the company, the last tenant had been unreachable since leaving and had never sent the keys (we suspected as much as they accidentally sent us an email meant for someone else demanding the keys back and furniture to be moved as someone was about to move in prior to this). We managed to move in on the day in the end as they finally agreed to change the locks. Before we found out the full story, we were continuously lied to and kept getting our date pushed back, but it doesn't sound like they were ever getting these keys and I don't know what would have happened if we hadn't kept questioning the explanations that were being given.
