The single worst Landlord I have experienced.
Landlord and agent was informed of a window which had rotted through completely. Landlord refused to fix issue and reminded me that my tenancy was up shortly. I phoned the council and following an improvement Notice being issued, I was evicted and the property was released immediately through the same agent.
To make matters worse, a portion of the deposit was then subtracted for cleaning although the flat was spotless when I left (not the case when I moved in) and that the flat had been inspected by Jack Head hours before my departure and he had clearly stated that the property was in satisfactory condition.

Best Letting Agent in Bristol 
Best Letting Agent in South West 
Thank you for your feedback. I would like to question whether your frustration lies with The Letting Game or landlord of the property. You moved out of the property in question over 3 years ago and we stopped working with landlord after you moved out, partly due to the way in which they treated tenants and approached check outs.
As I hope you appreciate, it was the landlord who refused to fix your window and the landlord who issued you notice.
Regarding the return of your deposit for cleaning, we dispute that the property was left clean. Had you of had a concern about the return of the deposit, you had the opportunity to go through the independent adjudication process, as advised at the time. Your deposit was protected in line with the law. This redress was always available to you if you felt you were being unfairly charged.
Regards,
The Letting Game.
