Me and my brother just moved out their property because of the many issues Ace Relocations refused to deal with. I had to live with a wasp nest in my room for over a year as they never sent anyone to sort that out. I have reported it many times however all of my emails went unanswered. The property was among one of the most disgusting to live in and eveything was broken (the shower, the boiler, the freezer) and Ace was very well aware of it as I have reported it many times however nothing was done about it. They did not protect my deposit with any of the government schemes and refused to give it back when I moved out. I was also charged for the repairs that were never made and I was issued a wrong type of contract. When I asked them to provide specific utility bills which was my legal right, they refused to do so. One of the other tenants tried to abuse me and threatened me with violence but until I had gone to the police, nothing was done about it. I had many other issues with them and I am now taking legal action. Furthermore, they refused to pay the actual owner of the flat even though we paid them in a timely manner. He is now suing them as well. I would advise everyone not to rent anything from Ace. They are liars and the way they work is against the UK law.

250 pounds for this service, and from my experience they do not talk with you unless you message first. When I showed keen interest in a place, while stressing my urgency to find a place, responses were slow and ...

Avoid this company by any means possible!
If you want to be a landlord that doesn't get paid, or a renter who gets spoken to like a piece of dirt then by all means go with Ace Relocations.

I'm in a similar position - they owe me part of my deposit still. I recommend you report them to Trading Standards and let them know your deposit wasn't protected (it's illegal). 'Ace Relocations' have apparently filed for insolvency - they're transferring everything to 'Safe Relocations' - run by the same bunch of cowboys, but trying to cover up their previous mess. ...

If I could give them zero stars, I would. Less, even. That would be more accurate. Bottom line - these guys are cowboys. Rumour has it they're about to go bust (if they haven't already) - but are now trying to trade under 'Safe Relocations' ...

I had the same experience as many people here. I went to their office to speak to them about a few of the properties that I saw were advertised on gumtree. I was then promised to view 2 properties that I really liked, which was the reason that I decided to pay the £250 sourcing fee. This was a huge mistake as I was not shown either of the properties that were promised, I was then shown 1 alternative property that was just not up to standard at all. The whole time I was only ever shown propertie ...

I also am in a similar situation - vacated a room after endless different problems and they are now holding back a portion of the deposit for no good reason. It's illegal for a landlord not to put deposits into a protection scheme and they can be fined for this and have to pay tenants multiples of what they are owed back - report them. The company are obviously very nearly bust though - all of the property owners that they had contracts with are slowly taking their houses / flats back from them ...

The worst company to have as a tenant in a property you own. Steer clear at all costs. They don't pay the rent, they don't fix problems and allow damage to property and they are incredibly rude and arrogant. Do not go near them....
