Kindly note that legally, letting agents need to publish information about their tenancy fees, government-approved redress schemes and client money protection schemes on their website and on third party websites (on which agents are listed). For properties to lease/rent in England, agents need to keep this information up to date and precise on allAgents or specify within the property description.

If your complaint hasn’t been resolved within 3 working days, it will be escalated to the Department Manager who will aim to resolve your complaint within 10 working days of the original complaint. If your complaint remains unresolved then it will be escalated to the Office Manager.

If the Office Manager is still unable to resolve your complaint within 13 working days of original complaint then it will be escalated to a Director.

The Director will acknowledge your complaint on the date that the complaint is passed to them. The Director will aim to rectify the problem to a satisfactory outcome within 2 working days of them receiving the complaint.
