Orwell Housing App Update
A reminder today that the Orwell Housing app is now available to download from The Google Play Store (Android phones) and The App Store (IOS, Apple Phones). Just search for 'Orwell Housing'. It is currently being used by around 50 customers with positive feedback received with regards its speed how easy it is to use. On downloading and logging in, the app gives you instant access to your account so that you can manage your tenancy and services at anytime. It also enables you to request or report a repair, check your balance and statements, pay your rent, browse information and a whole lot more. You can find some frequently aske questions at the link below and any problems using the app should be directed to our Customer Services Team in the usual way.
