Student Digz are quick to take your money, but slow to return in. Been waiting 2 months for my deposit and have been accused of leaving the house without cleaning it which is untrue, it was in fact cleaner when we left. Would warn anybody against going with this letting agency. The rooms were full of damp and mould, whilst we continually had problems with getting locked out of the house due to the old lock on the front door.

Hi Kita. Unfortunately the Locksmith was a victim of the Credit Crunch and has had to get an employed roll since the booklet was published last summer. He did however promise that he would honour any call outs am happy to hear he did on this occasion. As for the Dwr Cymru (Welsh Water) telephone number, am not aware of any change to this but will look into it before we publish the 2009/10 booklet. Thanks, Mark. May 03, 2009
The emergency numbers that are given are not correct. My friend contacted the locksmith who said that he no longer works for the company but as she was locked out he came out on his own accord and tried to fix the lock. Also i did not have any water and the number i was given was also incorrect i was told that they do not come out for my type of property?! Sep 18, 2008
We would never allow someone in a Fully Managed house to be locked out. We give out 24hr Emergency numbers for such occasions and as for the damp issue please read the previous comments regarding the strict regulations imposed on student houses in Swansea. Its just not true !!

1. The keys where not ready when we arrived, although we had sent them 4 emails telling them that we were coming (with no reply)
2. When we came to our flat, nothing was ready. ...

What agent could do to change your mind?
1. Had our property ready (ie cleaned, broken furniture replaced, walls repainted etc) to move in on the 1st September when our tenancy started. 2. When I moved in they should have listened to my problems, treated me with more respect and sorted them out as soon as possible. Especially things like the broken fire alarm and leak which is serious. 3. When they failed to sort the property out they should have not charged us full rent as the living standards are below poor.Attached Filesnbsp;

Avoid this "company". They are nothing more than un-professional morons.
But don't just take my word for it.. They are BLACKLISTED by the Swansea university accommodation services, they are not allowed to advertise on campus, don't even use them as a last resort they are ...

Seriously avoid this letting agency like the plague.
I initially applied for a property with two of my friends, and Student Digz took our application fees from us, and signed a contract. We were told we had four weeks to pay our deposit, and that ...

I'm not involved with the agent or group but thought it helpful to point out that once a contract is signed, both parties are legally obliged to abide by it - regardless of when the tenancy starts.
Putting a review of a company online is not cyber bullying.

Student Digz are insincere criminals when it comes to taking your money.
When someone pays extra for tenancy via a letting agency such as Student Digz, one would expect to get more in return. Primarily, a form of external mediation between the tenant and the ...

Ridiculous claim above - 'it is only the negative comments that are put onto sites such as this.'
I come from Swansea and rented a property with Student Digz so therefore must be part of the 5%.
The worst service I have ever encountered. Avoid at all costs. ...
