Whitegate's is a disgusting place that uses scare tactics used to frighten tenants even though they already paid a huge amount to Whitegates in made up admin fees and rent in advance and bonds for a service which is not worth the money. The fact that I've had a mouldy house all over the walls for 11 years, kitchen cupboards falling apart held together by sticky tape and glue for 11 years, gaping holes in the floors to the cellar where vermin get into my kitchen is neglectful and breaches their contract of fair repairs. I had it independently assessed by someone who works for the council who assesses housing for a living and he said "if it were a council house it would not be habitable and needs a lot of work to bring it up to standard" Whitegates treats tenants like criminals demanding they give immediate access to their property for gas safety checks instead of arranging properly and making appointments like normal people. Whitegates expect tenants to drop everything, their jobs, their family commitments, their businesses which I have all of and make themselves available to have periodic visits and gas safety. I dont have an issue with these visits at all. But threatening to break into my property because I was working over 100 miles away is not legal and that is what happened with Huddersfield Branch as I have been a tenant for the last 11 years they decided to treat me like a criminal by threatening the landlord would come along which abuses the 1988 law where the landlord can come to make repairs within 24 hours of notice, but this wasn't for repairs and therefore doesn't apply. I will be taking legal action against Whitegates and update you all
