I have not dealt with many estate agents in my life however Haart Hayes certainly has set a 0/0 expectation for me. I had secured a apartment by paying a holding deposit while they were suppose to go through my reference check. I had successfully passed the reference check within a few days. This was 27th of June 2019.
Since passing the reference checks - I have had 0 contact directly from my Haart's letting agent Ewa, whom I had to chase at least 5 times before getting a response. We finally set a move in date for the 16th of July and on the 15th of July after again no contact in between and having to chase Haart Hayes, I received a text message apologising and that they need to push back move in date by a week due to the landlord of the property being on holiday.
I advised Haart Hayes, Ewa in particular that I have bought furniture and that I need a firm confirmation of move in date so that I can coordinate my life accordingly. She confirmed and had changed the move in date on the online portal that they use. Now the move in date was set for the 23rd of July. It's the 22nd of July 2019 and nothing has been arranged, the online portal details haven't been updated and nor has a tenancy agreement been uploaded. What surprises me even more is that no full payment for deposit and one months rent in advance have been requested.
Today, I have been chasing Haart Hayes for details on where to pay and where to sign the tenancy without any luck. NOT ONCE WAS MY CALL ANSWERED. I had to go to the office to speak to a person and he advised me three different things; to start of with Ewa was with a client, then he said Ewa was off sick and in the end he told me she no longer works for the company!!!!!!!!!!! No out of office email either from EWA.
I finally got hold of someone said he was the branch manager called Ashish. He was very rude over the telephone and didn't even want to listen to my concerns (I was heated and frustrated at this stage). He told me Ewa was off sick and that he would look into things. When he asked me for the property details he told me that the property was SOLD by the landlord. WTF????????
Since he's sent me an email in which he explains that the property hasn't been sold yet but that the landlord wants to wait a few weeks to get an offer before renting the property out. Asking me to wait a further few weeks for this. Absolutely unacceptable - don't they understand that they have wasted a months of my life? I could've had another place to live in.
To say the least I am so disappointed as I expected a high street estate agency as Haart to be more professional. I will not use their services ever again and I recommend you don't either - don't trust a word that comes out of their mouths!!!!
