I have received a shockingly bad service for the past three years from Spicehaarts Colchester, in every aspect of service. To top it off I have recently left the property to be told the landlord didn't want a final inspection, despite me pushing for an inspection they said he didn't want one and therefore would have ten days to inform of any issues, 20 days have past and they tell me I can't have my deposit back yet as the landlord has a couple of issues, even though he hasn't reported the issues yet or reported them within the ten days, Spicehaarts will not release my deposit. This company is a joke.
What agent could do to change your mind?
The maintenance team never phone you back or tell you to ring back tomorrow when you have water pouring through your ceiling. The whole company has communication issues, they dont speak to each other let alone to you. It would be good if they could stick to their word and give me my deposit back.

Good Morning Lokman, Many thanks for your comments and feedback of any kind is always welcome here at haart. However I would like to clarify a couple of points if I may. The property in Hawthorn Avenue that you offered on was an extremely popular property and was viewed by a large number of applicants, we received multiple competitive offers for the property and unfortunately your offer was not at an acceptable amount to my clients and an offer from an alternative party was accepted on t ...

What agent could do to change your mind?
The agent could have returned my calls, as a legal team they should have the answers to legal questions not say I will have to come back to you which they never did. I would like to have dealt with one person but the turnover of staff seems to make this impossible ,as a managing agent your company do not manage

Absolutely agree with this.as soon as haart moved to Colchester in an obvious cost cutting excersize, the customer service has all but evaporated!someone needs to investigate the Colchester branch for,quite frankly,unacceptable customer service.you can't just ignore your tenants and landlords for months.I also,as a tenant,do not believe that you 'cant get hold of the landlord' - It's been 11 months,has he/she dissapeared? ...
