Compton Group Reviews 101

Absolute bully boy tactics
Try to force home owners to use a certain insurance company when more cost effective elsewhere !
Send abusive letters & threats even when they know cover is in place
Disgusting company

Just received notification that they have purchased the freehold of my property and they have informed me I may have to purchase insurance via them :-(

Appaling company, appaling attitude and criminally aggressive
I too want to get in contact with Rachelle to pursue them legally

Compton's tried the 'must be insured on Compton's block policy' with me. Sent them the S164 Notice and provided them with MY chosen insurer at a quarter of the cost. Compton's didn't like that so then tried to take me to the first tier property tribunal for a breach of covenant for erecting a structure without consent. I will save you the details, but I had the most enjoyable day witnessing the tribunal Judge rip Compton's solicitor a new one on multiple occasions. Recently had the result from the tribunal, I WON!!!. This shower are scum and they are now going to be paid their ground rent by two instalments annually (as per my lease), but not until I have been served with the correct S166 Notice of course. I will also be paying the amount due in postal orders :-) - These fakers try and use the law against you, but a little bit of research is all you need to know that they are just chancers trying their arm. - Picked the wrong victim here though as I WON and now I am going to be a PITA for the next 30 years.
Would like to get hold of Rachelle too as I would be absolutely delighted to take them on again on behalf of anyone who needs help. I also have a very compelling back story that the media will love if we can get the momentum going.

Absolute scum of the earth have hounded multiple pensioners on my estate

WE NEED TO COME TOGETHER and appeal to local MPs to change the legislation. Once we are many - A Parliament hearing can be held.

Compton Group are a very aggressive company that cause suffering and stress to home owners.

They must be stopped OR at least regulated & educated to correctively cease from causing upset to whole communities both locally and Nationally.

56 people (to date as of June 2023) over the North West Of England (including myself in Shaw) have now commenced formal legal processes, contacted Watchdog, we are contacting local & national authorities, just about to contact parliament and are contacting ALL news media.

WE CAN ENSURE THIS STOPS BUT WE MUST COME TOGETHER. (Me and you and your friends and family) A WhatsApp group & Facebook group has been created Nationally.

They purchase interest for one reason, to force you to buy your leasehold or if their fear mongering fails in this instance, they demand provisions to accrue financial gain - usually through loophole processes. For example:- demanding use of their approved building insurers or if this fails, demand fees to ‘compromise your freedom of choice to use other insurer cover’, frightening our vulnerable residents and the elderly and creating further upset while causing financial struggles and stress.

They do not purchase your leasehold interests to receive your annual rent, they offset investments, profit from land owner to build cheap homes and commercial buildings and create extra revenue by outdated legislative means.

They use solictors to dominate, they contact your mortgage providers / companies, they issue CCJs for guessed accounts. The mortgage provider has no option but to pay the outstanding monies they’ve made up to ‘protect their interests’ which in itself is disgraceful!

They think they are untouchable due to how they regulate their companies and associated administrative companies. WE ARE MAKING A STAND. CONTACT ME TO DO THE SAME. I am not taking their tactics lightly any longer NOR should you.

Compton Group are acting illegally, loopholing authorities and regulators and you do not have to be afraid or pay what they demand blindly through fear.

It Breaks my heart when I am contacted and hearing so many people’s upset, anxiety and fear. Please, please don’t think you have nowhere to turn - we will come together and stop this awful organisation.

My email and contact information are verified and I will see your replies or messages to this review. You are not alone - please reach out and we will support you.

Compton Group will no doubt see this review and try to coerce BUT it will further provide evidence to prove their underhanded behaviour and processes.

Stay away from this rip off company !!!!!!
My partner is selling her property and Crompton Group are the leaseholders for the property. The leasehold requires to be transfered to the new owner.
The selling chain is small and should complete in 6 weeks.
Crompton Group charge £100 to provide information to solicitors but within a timescsle of up to 15 working days (plus the weekends this is actually 21 days)
My partner contacted them by telephone to enquire why this took so long in such a time critical situation such as house sale chains. The answer was that it does due to company policy but for an extra £25 (€125 in total) this could in fact be done within 3 days !!!!!.
Despicable. . Stay away.

I have been trying to set right the communal dish antenna since yesterday. The employees drag their feet. I called them a third time today and was advised that something would be done in a couple of days ! As you don't expect anything during the weekend, it means I shall have to postpone watching TV till the middle of next week , if at all they care to get the repairs done.

Compton Property Management Group assume that all leaseholders and tenants are criminals who will not pay their service charge, ground rent and property insurance on time or at all; therefore, Compton always communicate with leaseholders and tenants in a passive aggressive manner. Calling the company involves talking to staff who are unhelpful and hide behind internal bureaucratic procedures to avoid dealing with any issue unless pressed to do so. When pressed staff are rude both verbally and in written format. The term 'customer service' is alien to Compton Group staff, who see their role as dictator instead of facilitator. My experience with Compton Property Management has been so poor that in future I will not purchase any property managed by Compton, and if a property I own falls under Compton group I will sell the property immediately

I paid £800 for part of my leasehold on 6/8/2022 and still have received no paperwork to finalise this purchase.

Would be zero stars if available. Taken over as our new leaseholders and have done nothing but bully and threaten since! Trying to force us to use their expensive nominated insurance or we will breach contract which is incorrect now stating we owe 5 times as much ground rent than we do. Threatening CCJs and intimidating tactics to back you into a corner and rob you blind. I feel bad for any elderly that will be genuinely terrified and pay these scammers.

Avoid at all costs! If I could give a 0 star for their customer service I would, not to mention the insurance they force you to use for 2-3 times the going rate!

Awful service excessive charges for a deed of variation in respect of selling my property. Compton seemed hell bent on making my life a misery and standing to gain when I sell my property- never buy leasehold or have any further dealing with this company.

Doesn't even deserve 1 star shocking company avoid at all costs, it's like faulty towers one woman answering the phone for all the companies, advising me they don't have a complaint procedure??? Making you take out expensive insurance so you will use them as a broker so they get commission and when you don't they want £60 to consent to you not doing so!!!!
