From being shown around the flat to being put through the letting process everyone at Black Katz was very helpful and keen to answer my (many) questions. I was looking for myself and my other half and I was by myself for most of the process - they did everything to alleviate my fears and facilitated meeting the landladies etc. Would highly recommend!
Comment on agent fees
I think if there are two people sharing one payment I'm not sure two background check fees are needed at ‚£150 each. But saying that they helped the whole way with questions and making sure our demands were met (where they could help it), so I guess this is what we pay for.

Hi everyone I can share my experience with black kattz agency. Once you willing to be honest with them, take will make sure you got that flat or house or apartment. Black kattz will do they part and make sure the landlords keep their agreement with the tenants. I meet Mr Tom and he did let me know, I will get the flat he showed me. That turned out to be pretty truthful. And from there i get in touch with the moving manger Miss Alisha, she is a great person base on what i get from her from the fi ...

We are sorry that you were not happy with the service you received; we work very hard at providing all our tenants with the best possible service.
We have fully looked into matters and really feel your review is very unfair and not a true reflection of what happened.
1. We never said you could throw away existing furniture, the furniture was removed without the landlords consent. You replaced the furniture and no charge to you has been made.
2. Professional Cleaning. Prior to you m ...

Hal,
We are truly sorry that you are not happy with Black Katz.
Furthermore we can assure you that we tale all complaints very seriously.
We have been going since 1992 and let over 50,000 flats and houses and would love to have 100% customer satisfaction and where we don't we always look at how we can improve.
You start off being highly critical of Black Katz but you have never used Black Katz. You have never been a customer of Black Katz.
Having looked into the matter in detail:
