The agency is the worst agency that I had to deal with. The agent and more particularly the Branch letting Manager are incompetent, rude, lazy and disrespectful with customers. They provided me with misleading information when advertising and showing the flat that I wanted to rent. It was supposed to be unfurnished with allocated parking space. Once I moved in it was fully furnished and nobody was able to locate the parking space and provide me with the parking permit that was also needed. It took me more than 2 months to solve this by pushing Fox and Sons and by starting a complaint procedure to get financial compensations. Of course, their complaint department is also incompetent and just make laugh of the client. Everytime I was going there, I could see them making lough of myself behind their computer. They have been lying as well several time just to get rid of me. Fox and Sons behaves illegally , as it is illegal to provide misleading information to a customer and it seems that the law doesn't protect much against these behaviours as well. As a recap, I would say that it is an agency with incompetent. rude and careless people. I have only one advice, don't waste your time with the agency
Comment on agent fees
The fees are too high considering that I have been doing everything to get things done. I don't understand how they justify such fees
