The following is a list of weak points for the above letting agents:
Complex contracts with many add on fees and difficult termination clauses. No proper copy of the contract given to us.
Different departments which don't communicate well with each other - so you can be passed from one to the other.
Aggressive staff.
Poor response or zero response to our requests.
We have had to arrange our own workmen for all eventualities as their workmen are ridiculously expensive and unreliable.
Poor organisation of re-letting leading to long delays in re-letting. Jobs that are needed to be done (e.g. re-painting etc) have been poorly organised and not supervised properly.
Do not use these agents - we will attempt to terminate our agreement with them at the first opportunity.

What agent could do to change your mind?
1. Have a single fee of 10% with no hidden add-on costs 2. Have a single person who you can be confident will deal with all your issues with regard to a property 3. Employ enough experienced staff so that the staff do have time to deal with your issues as they arise 4. Issue proper readable contractsAttached Filesnbsp;

Terrible
Do not bother renting with them. They won't follow through with repairs properly. I lived in a property managed by them. For nearly two years I lived with extreme water damage in the roof. The final straw for me was a mouse infestation with ...

By far the worst letting agency around. Totally incompetent and unprofessional, try to con you out of rent when it’s not due, a nightmare to get any repairs done, then after your tenancy ends try to charge you for the removal of extra wheelie ...

Listed our house with both Blundells and House Simple. After a few months we'd had a single phone call from Blundells to let us know it had listed, and that was the extent of our contact.
We had 0 viewings, 0 follow up communications, 0 information from Blundells. ...

Their fee structure is ridiculous, you pay almost £200 for a simple credit check. The staff are rude, uninterested, and incompetent. We had four separate viewings, they showed us the wrong placed on two of those viewings...
... How can they mix up viewings? I wanted to ...

I'm sorry I ever went anywhere near Blundells. Service has been poor from the start - they failed to put half of our deposit into a DPS and left it floating around in our account. This money has now been lost as a result of ...

Where to start with this shambolic outfit? The only thing they actually manage is the removal of your money. I'm still waiting for my deposit to be discussed, let alone returned, because "the landlord hasn't responded yet"; it's been a month. We moved out after ...

Awful letting agent, I would never use this company ever again and would strongly urge no one else to either.
I have just finished my letting contract with Blundells in Sheffield, and throughout the year they have been nothing but useless, how this company ever ...

I am acting as a guarantor for a rental. The whole process was extremely stressful. The agents repeatedly lost the paperwork, apparently needed 3 separate pieces of identity in order to have a form of id with photograph address and national insurance number and finally are ...
