They gave me a bad reference just to keep me in my property.
Used to FAKE reason of late rent payments (one that can be justified by them, the other two cannot even be counted - this can be proofed).
Sought legal advice and as a journalist I’m burning to get them exposed for the scammers they are.
Absolutely disgraceful staff, so rude and dismissive.
They completely ignore repair requests too.
For nearly a year I didn’t have a toilet seat.
They are a shambles. Avoid at all costs.

Acorn are the worst estate agents around. They do not respond to maintenance issues, they did not meet the conditions of our offer when we moved in - it took months for us to get the property to a professionally clean standard. We were told ...

I would never recommend Acorn estate agents for letting your property. Absolutelly hopeless, Collected rents were never paid on time, many times 3-4 weeks later after much screaming on the phone the rents were sent to my bank.
After 2 years of tenant having terminated tenancy ...

Never, ever entrust your property to these bunch of rogues! They do nothing but ignore requests. My property has been left in complete disrepair because of poor property management and I have had to pay out ££££ to get the property back in a "liveable" condition.
