I am sorry you feel the experience have been awful. I would really like to have an opportunity to discuss the matter directly with yourself but unfortunately we do not know which tenancy this review relates to. However, we do want to answer the points raised in the review as we think some of them are quite unfair and / or factually incorrect (our answers are based on our standard practices applying across our agency): 1) The £ 1,150 money you have paid would have been first month rent, depos ...

What agent could do to change your mind?
Simply put they could have been honest about the deductions - itemizing what they are taking off any why. Instead of just saying well you can lodge a complaint with the TDS they could have looked in to what the problem was. I have left with a feeling of distrust

I can deinately agree with that. Rude aggresive and sarcastic. I got my keys the same day i had to move in due to their inability to have the contract ready. The house was filthy sticky and smelly. The washing machine was not working, the windows need to bechanged as the rain and the wind is coming through. It said that the house was furnished and then they said it was a mistake-after i signed in . They did not reply to my e-mails either and tey got me a wrong and old leetr box key and they had ...
