“Shockingly bad experience with this company...”

Terrible and most unorganised service I have ever used and would not recommend to anyone. I have had nothing but stress and disappointment since renting with WH Brown: from initially having a rainwater leak into my property on my first day of my moving date, to 3 months down the line while having to live elsewhere until this could be fixed because of Covid. I was told that I would not have to pay the rent until the leak was fixed in writing via email and whilst I was living elsewhere. 4 months in to the contract, once I moved in and the leak was fixed, to now being told that I owe them money, the landlord is denying that he ever said this and they are evicting me because they can’t get it in writing from him, which I had no idea about until 4 months into the contract. Spoke to a solicitor and was told that W H Brown are the landlord’s agent and so they are his voice, so if you have it in writing from them then they would struggle to argue in court. I am being evicted, with threats to take me to court for something which was THEIR FAULT. The most untrustworthy company I have ever come across. Nothing but un needed stress to add to an already stressful year.
