Haven’t even moved in yet and rating 1 star. Finished paperwork on new tenancy months ago, and move in date as advertised online was delayed. Very little communication from Atwell team, had to chase them up every step of the way. Tenancy starting date 2 was then delayed due to cleaning having to take place - given 1 week delay. (Not sure why a 1 bed flat takes 1 week to clean?) Very unhappy about this and problematic as had stuff in storage and temporary accommodation was set to expire. Not to mention taking time off work so that we can move, (and now it’s been delayed we now have no time to move because work is back on). Raised this quite strongly with the team, said they’d get back to us - and never did (of course). This was also from the general property manager I think. Now it is the week after, and apparently the cleaning is being done today - so another delay. Terrible communication and constant delays.

If only I could add 1 star. Didn't believe my daughter when she said she did not have a smoke alarm. Did not believe my daughter when she said she had a Combi boiler. Very rude and lots to learn about customer service....

I think the bad reviews are accurate and the good reviews are probably made up by Gemma and Sarah. I would adamantly NOT recommend this agency. We left and were dealt with by a proper working agency.
We had a year of ball ache. We ...

Complete lack of communication.
Am absolutely disgusted with how much of my deposit has been taken for things that are made up and dishonest.
I was charged for a missing door handle which the letting agent themselves admitted to breaking off of the door.

Went through Atwell Martin as my friend worked there. Managed to get a good fee, however since we have been with them approx 2 years they over price all maintenance work. We had tenants at one stage and they left their ikea boxes in the garage ...

My principal concern is the costs of repairs, which have been crippling me. I have no reason to doubt that the work needed doing - or evidence that it was done badly - but their contractors seem to charge way beyond the going rate. There ...

What agent could do to change your mind?
Maintenance companies will often inflate their costs expecially if they think that the landlord wil not even notice or care. Atwell Martin should aim to to get vaue for money for their client (the landlord). It takes jsut two minutes to Google and find our the going rate for white goods. They are lazy in the extreme making no effort to ensure quote is reasonable. This is the reason I am leaving them. If they gave evidence of challengin their maintenance companies I might reconsider. However, every alternative letting agent I have contacted so far has lower charges, so they'd probably have to lower their charges a little to keep me.Attached Filesnbsp;
