🚨 SCAM ALERT 🚨

We have been alerted to residents receiving phone calls from a company claiming to be 'AJ Housing Solutions'. They have been stating that they've been calling residents on behalf of the council and housing associations to look into 'reports of repairs needed in the property' - citing things like mould, damp and water damage.

Please note that this has nothing to do with Ashford Borough Council and we believe it to be a scam.

We advise our residents to take caution when answering phones or emails and if they are in any doubt as to who they're speaking to, to get in touch with us directly.
