After moving out from a property let by Christopher Stanley Ltd (September 2013) we waited 3 months to get our deposit back but the company has failed to returned it ( £1200). We contacted all three government-authorised tenancy deposit protection schemes to learn that Christopher Stanley Ltd has never registered our deposit which was their legal duty.
After our Letter before Action was ignored we applied for the County Court and received order against Christopher Stanley Ltd (March 2014). who owes us now £1200 (deposit), £3600 compensation fee and £175 court fee. Christopher Stanley Ltd requested the order to be put aside (October 2014) but we won again at our second hearing as they have failed to provide any reasons. (December 2014).
You will learn from the news that Christopher Stanley Ltd owes property owners as well tens of thousands of pounds

What agent could do to change your mind?
The price for a 1 bedroom flat is very high ‚£900 but it is nothing compare to the ‚£4975 that the Christopher Stanley Ltd owes us.

Watched Nightmare tenant slum landlord from USA. Why in the heck would any native European do any kind of business with an African or Middle Eastener..? Why would anybody rent to one...? Corruption and fuckery is in their DNA. You guys can't be that gullible. Anomaly. ANOMALY

Much like the review above from back in 2015, Carl Afilaka (formerly of Christopher Stanley) now works for a "company" called Abode Estate Agents. Trust me when I say, nothing has changed in his practices. I've now been left the property for 3 months and have yet to receive my £2200 deposit, or even the remainder of it for any "damages" which may have been found. 41 Sycamore Road in Launton was a great property managed by a ruthless supposed letting agent. Should the landlord or current tenant choose to contact me for further details, reply to this post.

I've never met Olatunde/Carl. I live in Vancouver Canada. But I just watched a Netflix program that follows douchebag landlords in the U.K. This Olatunde/"Carl" guy is a dick. Seriously. He's a complete dick. He ripped off this awesome woman named Margaret. ...

No. I've not been subject to Carl/Olatunde's fees. But considering this Fuck-Stick has managed to get himself broadcast on another continent, I'd say my comments are relevant and should be posted.

Olatunde 'Carl' Afilaka has been pursued by Trading Standards for over 6 years . In that time, he has defrauded me and 3 other landlords to my knowledge of over £30,000 and probably hundreds of tenants. Be warned he is very convincing even to seasoned landlords and tenants. I ...

I am a landlord and I got ripped off by "Carl" Afilaka too (Olatunde Carl Afilaka, Tunde Carl Afilaka). He took the rent from the tenants and didn't pass it on to me. He is a compulsive liar and con artist. He also rented our 2 bed flat as some sort of shared house from what the neighbours said. His agency was Xpress Properties at the time, this was several years ago. Trading standards were alerted (they were already building a case against him) and the police. He owes me a 5 figure sum. ...
