The funds and the reimbursement for the deposits are systematically delayed with completely unjustified grounds, personnel time off/unwell, wrong IBAN, wire transfer quota cap per day and other bogus arguments.
Avoid, stay at large.

My experience with Cityrooms has been nothing short of a nightmare. From start to finish, they have demonstrated a complete lack of professionalism, transparency, and fairness. Dealing with them has been incredibly frustrating, and I would strongly advise anyone considering renting through Cityrooms to steer ...

I recently had the pleasure of working with city rooms as my rental agent, and I can't recommend them highly enough! From the very beginning, their agent was incredibly professional, attentive, and dedicated.

Worst letting agents ever. They are simply looting their customers. CityRooms has proven to be an absolute nightmare. Their letting services are a masterclass in incompetence. The exorbitant bills they slapped us with were only surpassed by their creativity in finding unnecessary deductions from our ...

Been in a house where I used to pay 1083£ pound a month for nothing !
Heater and hot water was missing almost all the time I’ve been in there and for them the priority was make money and not adjust the boiler!
I report that’s someone come in to the flat breaking a window in the kitchen and asked them to repair it but never done anything and I can say that 1 moths before this happened 2 people got stabbed in the building and 1 die after the stab !
They didn’t care about anything ! ...

Comment on agent fees

Was this helpful?
Yes
Yes
No fees information available
Kindly note that legally, letting agents need to publish information about their tenancy fees, government-approved redress schemes and client money protection schemes on their website and on third party websites (on which agents are listed). For properties to lease/rent in England, agents need to keep this information up to date and precise on allAgents or specify within the property description.
Complaints Procedure
No procedure available.
I hope you are well,
After carefully checking your case I found that you provided the wrong bank accounts details to our deposit refund department, the processing time was less then what the agreement states. You should actually be recommending us as we gave you priority over other refunds pending.
Best of luck,
