Rented from Fulfords for 3 and a bit years and they are an absolute bunch of clowns.
They let in a contractor without my knowledge and basically gave him the spare key to the property which is trespassing and they didn't seem to care.

Avoid Fulfords lettings at all costs! They are very underhand, charge fees over the odds, sign you up to dodgy electric / gas suppliers so you get overcharged and they get a cut (see link) http://www.notsobrightenergy.org/
