Firstly - Joseph O'Neil - this is just for you. I feel you need a little lesson in how to conduct yourself, please take it in as you were obviously not trained properly as an adult. So take note - 1) Learn to organise yourself, 2) Learn how to be professional, 3) TRY to learn how to respect others, 4) Keep to your word,5) Don't mess people about as it might backfire and lastly 6) DON'T LIE - Maybe if you try to implement these things in your life, you would be able to handle a professional job. I have never dealt with an estate agent as clueless and unprofessional as Joseph O'Neil. From my experience with him I believe he's obviously been brought up and trained incorrectly. We arranged to meet at a 2 bed flat I was interest in last Sunday at 4:15pm. We turned up to find 11 sets of other people wanting to view this (around 25 people in total). Joseph failed to tell us beforehand that there were other people viewing. Joseph wasn't even there. He turned up 1 hour late with no real apology. We viewed the flat and emailed him later in the day to say we like it and want to proceed, what are the next steps. It was 1 months rent in advance and 6 weeks deposit. Holding deposit is 2 weeks rent along with supporting documents/references. He then called on Sunday night to say the Rent PCM was wrongly advertised at 1,040 and it should be 1,100 - can we match it? I said No we can't the most we can do is 1,050. He wasn't happy and then said he had another offer for 1,100 but we stuck to our guns and said no, thinking we've now lost the flat. We didn't hear from him for a day or so, then came back to us stating they have accepted our offer which confused me as I thought why wouldn't he take the other offer as it's higher than mine. - Then I realised I was dealing with a crafty sales man. We then arranged to meet him yesterday at the flat so I can have 1 last look alone without any other viewers and I had the holding deposit money and various docs to give him in order to proceed. My partner was in constant communication with him and past me the information so I can finalise things with Joseph so he was fully aware I was meeting him to put down the holding deposit money. I was running late and tried to call him to let him know, but his phone was constantly on the engaged tone and he wasn't replying to my texts. I got there to see about 10 people waiting to view the same flat, which really annoyed me. I spoke to each person and they were all given a different rental amounts. Lowest being 975pcm. Some had come with their deposit money also and some families had small children with them shivering in the cold for over an hour. Apparently he told everyone to meet him there at 6pm and he only decided to turned up at 7pm. His reason for being late I went to the wrong property sorryr Before he let people in I asked him what was going on as I was here to pay the deposit. He said that he wasn't told that, he thought I was just coming to view again and then make my decision if I wanted it or not which was a blatant lie as I had already seen the texts between him and my partner confirming I was putting the deposit down with him that day. When I question him as to what exactly he is trying to do here as he is wasting peoples time, he walked past me and opened the door to the flat to let the others in. As I walked into the flat he said I don't know why your coming in I said to him to re-read his texts and emails, I AM HERE TO PAY THE DEPOSIT and view the flat again. He started giving me attitude as I was embarrassing him in front of the others. By this time I knew I didn't want anything to do with him and this flat, but I was intrigued, so asked him, Right so if I say to you now, im here to give you my deposit money, what happens next? Are you going to tell these people who've been waiting over an hour in the cold to go home? his words I wouldn't give you the flat anyway because of your attitude My attitude is asking him questions as to what is going on? Didn't realise that was an attitude issue. I told him in front of everyone that he obviously doesn't know how to run a business and he is very unprofessional and that I will be complaining to his manager - he said go on then, I don't care I couldn't believe the way he was treating me knowing I had the money ready to give him but from reading the reviews, all the agents based at London Lettings Limited seem to have the same attitude. Before I left I told everyone else that was viewing not to give him their money as he has no clue what he is doing and that no one knows what the actual rental amount pcm is so why trust this guy. He will more than likely get your money and do a runner. He's that type of man. It's like he doesn't want the business and even if he does he is not educated to the right level of professionalism that is needed for that type of market. PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS ESTATE AGENTS and ESPECIALLY DO NOT DEAL WITH JOSEPH O'NEIL!!!


What agent could do to change your mind?

Close down your business and pursue a different career as Lettings/Sales is clearly the wrong career for you.

What agent could do to change your mind?

First of all, they should pick up their calls. and the next thing is they need to publish the rent of the property correctly, rather than asking bunch of people to view the property and putting auction. also they need to respect the prospective customers. A lot of things need to improve. In my opinion they need to start from scratch.
