Terrible and awful customer service
From our experience, Haart is definitely the worst renting agent I ever encountered in my 10 years renting history in and near London area. No matter if you are the landlord or the potential tenant, I strongly advise NOT to use Haart because the customer service just ends right after you signed the contract and direct debit form.
After we moved out from the flat in Maidenhead in December 2014 (agreed date, notice given two months in advance) and landlord cleared the moving out check, Haart held the remaining rent and check-in deposit (this is from April 2014 when we moved in) till now. My wife and I have made numerous calls and never got it solved. I called Haart local office, main office, customer service etc. In the end I had to put it to Small Money Claim Court. For the last year and half, I only received one call back from Haart (and that is after I made the claim) although all the calls I made I was told they will call me back ASAP.
I am posting the photo of the claim and Haart's response. A comment to Haart's response to court (funny you would take so much effort to response to court but not to tenants):
1)Haart is the renting agent for the landlord who takes the money, the rent was paid by direct debit to your account not the landlord's. I think it is your job to take care of overpayment/underpayment.
2)We were not told anytime it's his job to return the money the first time we heard this excuse is after the claim in court.
3)We were never told to contact him for this! BUT we have talked to him during our initial claim with Haart, he says Haart is managing the money transactions.
4)From Dec01 to Dec17 you have double rents received, because the new tenants have moved in. You should have returned our rent immediately after you received the check-out confirmation.
What agent could do to change your mind?
refund any owned rent and claim fees and a formal apology
