The following is a personal review of the agency after decades of international experience in dealing with agencies. I made the mistake of trying the Dexters Acton office and I strongly recommend avoiding this office as it is extremely toxic in my opinion where a senior employee yelling at the customer after they (the office and landlord) breached contract is a perfect representation over how garbage this office is. I rented a house through them (3,250 PCM) and paid 6 months in advance to help fix a few issues quickly with several comments which were related directly to the safety of the house and they promised everything would be fixed before I moved in. These conditions were made prior to the contract being signed and thus were binding as part of the contract, the conditions were not met prior to the tenancy thus they were already in breach. After they took the money and the staff did not answer my emails as most of the items were not fixed (main door needed fixing as the kids/wife could not open, no bell, no lights in the dining room, no proper cleaning, no curtains which we were told would be fixed before move in and were a condition in the contract). This escalated to their customer service and I received unsatisfying answers.
For me, I will never use this office again.
If someone has any suggestions on how to escalate the matter to the regulatory authority here in the UK, please let me know.
So far we feel naked as we are exposed to our neighbors through uncovered windows in a house where there are no CO2 detectors.
Dexters in my opinion is damaging the London reputation of it being a business city. Their behavior in my opinion is designed to wear you out in emails and calls to see how far they can infringe your liberty with you remaining silent. As you can I tell I have had enough and I hope you all learn from my costly endeavor .

To be honest, I agree with the bad reviews I read about Dexters. I just wish I read them before dealing with them, especially the Ealing Branch. I have never dealt with such bad communicators, condescending, incompetent customer point of contacts (property management included). The only thing that matters to the people I dealt with was money. Property management didn't have the decency to pick up the phone to tell me the contract would not be renewed. I had to find out from an email sent betwee ...
