I am shocked by all the negative reviews about Belvoir. My experience at Basingstoke was totally the opposite. I experienced an excellent service from start to finish. I used them for Tenant Find only. Mike provided lots of valuable advice on all sorts, answered all my questions in full and gave me plenty of his time. The references and credit checks were carried out and a suitable tenant found and set up effIciently. I feel very happy with the service and would recommend the Basingstoke office with no reservations whatsoever. I can only conclude that as Belvoir is a franchise there is a variance in the service throughout the country.

I have taken the time to investigate the issues you have raised and would comment in response:
We have the sheet you signed and initialled when you moved in and it clearly shows an electricity meter reading. In addition, the meter reading appeared on the inventory anyway. It is read at check-in in order to double-check. To claim otherwise is simply incorrect.

I am glad you can easily identify the point at which your colleague sniggered. Since it was so easy to identify, I would take this as confirmation my account is accurate. Your colleague did not take my complaint seriously from the start and therefore left bad reviews as the only option of making my point heard. This was going to be the last poor review, however I am unsure you understand yet, therefore perhaps I should find some other portals? Let me know or please contradict the fact that this ...

Unfortunately, I can find nothing to match the circumstances outlined in your first paragraph.
I am, however, aware of a recent situation which appears to be that to which you refer in your second paragraph.
You made an offer on a property we were selling, but the vendor did not wish us to stop marketing of the property until such time as your offer was "proceedable". Until such time as your own property was sold, you offer could not, therefore, be entertained. This is not at all unusua ...

Dear "V K",
At check-out, there is sometimes a difference of opinion. The out-going tenant has his view-point, the landlord has his and an agent is very often stuck in the middle, not necessarily agreeing fully with either party. An agent is in the invidious position, sometimes, of having to put forward a claim according to a landlord's wishes, irrespective of his beliefs. In law, we are the landlord's agent and whilst we have a duty of care to a tenant, we cannot lose sight of our contractu ...

Dear Pr,
I am a director of Belvoir and the male member of staff with whom you spoke this morning. I apologise if anything I said offended you in any way; this was not my intention.
We always seek feedback from those who have viewed a property which it transpires they do not like, in order that we may try and direct them to an alternative property which is more suited to their needs. By examining in detail an applicant's requirements, we can save applicants the time and trouble of view ...

Best Letting Agent in RG21 
Best Letting Agent in Basingstoke 
We are all individual franchises and, therefore, there may be a significant variation in the manner in which various shops are run. In Basingstoke, we strive to be fair, transparent and honest in our dealings with all and I sincerely hope never to see genuine complaints written on this, or any other site, about anyone's dealings with us.
There is one negative review about us, but it genuinely is a case of mistaken identity and we are hoping that the reviewer will revisit his comments one day and realise his error and correct it.
Elsewhere online you will find many further positive reviews of Belvoir Basingtoke.
