To be clear, I was not endeavoring to tarnish your business' good name, my only hope was that these two individuals were dealt with appropriately so that others are not subjected to the same quality of service that I endured. It takes a long time to build a good reputation (in any line of work) but it is a shame these two individuals do not respect that. They should take it upon themselves to represent the Company in the way a honest hard work ...

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.
