Like most people who use CMRent, they were fine when moving in, but when anything needed doing within the property they were pretty useless. The staff are completely incompetent. The problem we're having at the moment (STILL) is that we're not getting our deposit back. I have explained to them NUMEROUS times what needs to be done, but they refuse, claiming to get my desposit back I need to get it from the 2 current tenants living in the flat there now (I have moved out now thankfully). They didn't even know how to reclaim the deposit back. They claimed I could "Log into the website and change the owner of the deposit" but when I spoke to the people who hold the deposit, this feature has never been available and I had to work out for myself how to reclaim the deposit. Now, all they need to do is send an email to the company holding the deposit to confirm that we can have it back but they refuse. Even though, before I moved out, an email was sent to a member of staff at CMRent who actually confirmed that I will receive my deposit 5 working days after I moved out. It has now been well over 5 days and they still haven't even bothered to contact me about this. When I tried contacting their Finance department yesterday to tell them they have made no action regarding the deposit, they said they had no action to take that its my job to get this back. When I said otherwise, she said I was incorrect (Coming from the same person who didn't even know how to reclaim my deposit back). So I tried calling back again today after getting confirmation from the deposit agency that all they need to do is send them an email to say "Yes, he may have his deposit back", and what happens? When trying to "Put me through" I was hung up on twice. Clearly intentional as the person has no idea what their job is. I seriously do not recommend this place to anybody. I'm never a stressy person, but this takes the biscuit.
P.S Also, the woman supposedly dealing with my deposit enquiry decided to go on holiday without telling her employees of any of the details regarding my deposit. So until she gets back, nothing can be done! Fantastic.
