One whole year with this agency. I am truly disappointed. They do not give customers priority, rude, not willing to help with the tenancy at all. They do not respond to emails on time (only when it concerns money, that's when they are happy to reply as soon as possible. If anything else pfft good luck). Staff members take advantage of us due to the fact that we are students and so they attempt to "do as they please".
Summary:
1. showing up for a viewing on the wrong day. Basically showing up whenever they like...
2. Not helping out with the house at all (ie, if there is something wrong with the house, i have to call someone, when the agents should be the ones calling. They earn commission for what exactly?)
3. Extremely Rude Staff
4. asking for 6 months rental up front. Which as a student is way too much. I'm not a millionaire, its already expensive enough I'm studying in this country.
5. Lazy
- Upon signing the tenancy agreement with the agency, they had lost an Emailed copy of my Documents (passport etc). Didn't bother to look for it in their emails clearly so they asked me to send it three times.
6. I had more help from the landlord themselves when it should be the other way round. The agents should be the ones taking care of me.
7. Only gave me a set of keys for the front door of the house. not even a key for the individual rooms. i couldn't even lock up the house if i were to leave for a long time. i would have to go down to the agents or physically meet the landlord to obtain the keys to lock it. then i would have to give it back and rush to the airport to catch my flight.
8. Prior to the checkout date. My landlord recommended me to contact the agents to get a cleaning crew. Seeing that they earn commission, they should be doing it for me. But alas, no... "Here's the number, go do it yourself:" I had to fly 10000 miles and a month early for my checkout date. if not i could still be enjoying my summer holiday.
Overall, I would avoid this agency at costs. They are rude, quite intimidating and very not caring at all.
