Rented our property from Barbetts for 14 months, connells come along promise landlord they will reduce management fee so they get the business, but after promises that they are not putting rent up, I get a letter straight after the 1st months rent gets paid to say we putting rent up by an extra £175 per month, so that's how they get the extra money to cover the loss of management fee, they lie when confronted and claim it's landlords decision, but email from head office claims it's the letting manager in Paignton idea, I asked manager and he refused to acknowledge this claim he could answer the question, seriously don't trust them the screw the tenants to help the landlord while furnishing their pockets, so we have sent to rent tribunal which could mess the management side up if rent is reduced and won't help landlord, avoid them at all costs over inflated rents

Shani was excellent, and extremely professional.
She solved every problem efficiently, and with a smile.
Thank you, Shani for your ...

Rude and arrogant. They trap you in a contact and won't let you leave. Say one thing but behind your back mean another. They all lack communication. Would never use again....
