My housemate and me lived in USA for 2-3 years renting apartment, and we never had any problems with contract, payments or service. We would have help from the agency, compromises and NONE threats to be kicked out of the apartment. I CANNOT say the same about Gascoigne-Pees. Misinformation form the agent about payments, threats to be kicked out, no help, no compromises but always trying to make problems. we were misinformed that we have to pay 6 months in advance and then monthly. They did not want to help us to solve the issue when we could not pay next 6 months, as we were informed to pay monthly. If the agency would inform us to pay remaining 6 months in advance rather than saying that we can pay monthly, we would have the amount of money to pat for last 6 months of the rent. After agreement with the agents, we forced them to call our landlord to explain the situation, however they ignored us all, except one agent (who was the only one who tried helping us). Our landlord agreed for monthly payments. We paid our monthly payments for 2 months but kept receiving letters from CountryWide. The agency told us to ignore the letter since we paid regularly. As we receive intended letter of court action we contacted countrywide who connected us the agency. We were told that SOMEHOW they do not have proof of payments, which is impossible since we had receipts. We were threatened again to be kicked out of apartment. Our credit record can be effected by mistakes of the agents. As we are students and we have final exams and we are under pressure abut the flat. This situation is UNACCEPTABLE, we have a thought to go to the court regarding this situation.
