"Horrible company with no values whatsoever"

What can be said that already hasn't been said?

Threatening letters with 7 day notices.
Threats of court action.
Threats of contacting mortgage providers.
Threats of stopping any maintenance work, not that we'd notice as they do very little for what they want paid.

Greenbelt seem to believe that they have a licence to hold homeowners to ransom with their methods of doing business.

Sadly for them, the victims caught up in this mess are fighting back and fighting hard. A lot of people now are asking developers about open spaces maintenance and walking away from buying in these developments.

They want to charge for work on THEIR land and the households being charged do not have access to any accounts, inspections, surveys or maintenance plans for what they are meant to pay for. Nor do they have a say on how the open spaces should be managed.

Now Greenbelt are auctioning off small strips of land up and down the country, clearly to claw back lost revenue and leave residents in limbo with spaces that will not be maintained by anyone else.

They are a bunch of uncaring lowlifes and are happy to fleece householders for money without carrying out the work to specification. They also own some of the companies 'awarded' contracts to carry out maintenance on their behalf.

UPDATE:

Your rates may be competitive but you hold us hostage in our deeds, and you own the land you're supposed to maintain. So saying that your rates are competitive is a load of nonsense as we cannot change the maintenance provider, and you know this!

"Disgusting organisation"

If I could leave a negative star I would - they don’t deserve a star.

Terrible service, our estate is poorly kept and their staff are cheeky and smug.

Do not pay them would be my advice.

"contacted the HSE regarding Greenbelt"

I have recently contacted the HSE regarding the unsafe conditions of our street! There was a fenced off area lying ajar which leads to a fast flowing stream, I then closed and padlocked off the are!
I have also contacted the CEO and managing director but am still waiting On a response and that’s coming up for a month

"Greenbelt a rip off"

We have taken over a section to the front of our property which was a mess due to the neglect of Greenbelt & on public path bushes were so overgrown & overhanging path kids needed to duck under. As for removing rubbish, not going to even go there, even if they tried, employees would be ripped to shreds since the bushes are full of thorns & rubbish which no-one can get to due to thorns

"Nice (large) earner"

This company claims to be a land management company. However, in the six years I have been on this estate I have only seen workers once. The grass is so long in one area I cannot see my dog if she runs in it. I have to say it seems to be a licence to print money as they can, and do, charge whatever they think fit and we have no power to refuse. How the council allows this situation to arise is beyond us. They still charge us full Council Tax.

"Want to leave a minus star but cant"

Cannot leave a review without giving them a star, they dont deserve a star, they deserve nothing. They shaft everyone with their over pricing and leave the places they are meant to maintain looking like a run down council estate instead of new homes with supposedly newly maintained green areas. Their prices are far fetched and when challenged cannot come up with anything to match what you ask. A few times I have asked to see their waste transfer notes form taking away the rubbish we are being charged for, these are never shown. Also asked for proof of payments to the companies they have used to take excess waste away, including burnt out cars etc.

No wonder places are getting run down, their workmanship is shoddy and leaves the places looking like Beirut, hence why scruffs think its ok to dump their crap!!

Since 2006 we have been putting up with this shower, time they were seen for what they are

"No negative number available for this terrible org..."

Greenbelt should not be allowed to operate - they deliver a shoddy overpriced service that will cost homeowners dearly if they try to have them removed. They have no care about customer service, and the quality of work is shoddy, minimal and undertaken by 3rd parties on many occasions.
When contacted Greenbelt provide generic responses in the hope you disappear - this is not going to be the case!!! Our neighbourhood is currently undertaking legal advise to understand how to have this organisation removed (and we have been contacted by others who has been successful to give us additional support).

"Greenbelt buyer beware"

Hi
If you want to pay extortionate fees for redundant land that can't be used for anything, then enter into an agreement with these people, my bill has gone up from £78 to £124 per annum within the 9 years I've lived on the estate.
They cut the grass now and again also ignore all the other parts but the bill goes up year on year.
Avoid all housing estates with this company on it, also mortgage companies are now looking at where there is a partnership with these type of people on the deeds.
Buyer beware.
Shame they won't publish my more colourful review.

"so wish there was a zero option for…"

so wish there was a zero option for this company ,poor service zero customer service

"Greenbelt are not even worth one star!"

Really and truthfully I don’t want to give them even 1 star. They are despicable, unprofessional liars who are intent on doing nothing and just taking your money. We have had an issue with these people for years and now trees are falling down into houses, onto public walkways and dead branches falling and injuring people. It will only be a matter of time before someone is seriously injured or even killed. Still Greenbelt issue only words and false promises, they have even told Hosta their landscape contractor that our local council are to blame for any delays when in fact the council are pushing them to maintain the trees. But does this bad press mean anything to Greenbelt, absolutely not they continue to flout any contract they have been awarded. We have so many instances of false promises and statements, this has been an ongoing issue for nearly 20 years. Please please don’t pay them any more money for work not done and please don’t award them any further contracts for maintenance work, they will not be honoured.
