Dreadful - as a tenant please do not consider using them.
Couldnt have been worse at getting problems fixed , answering calls and emails. kept making promises to do things and then not! - 5 weeks to fix a problem with hot water.
On ending tenancy wanted to charge for professional cleaners to come in to clear away the odd cleaning spray I had let on clean surfaces.

What agent could do to change your mind?
The tenant is paying the rent - in advance . so address quickly any problems that arise rather than just trying to keep costs downAttached Filesnbsp;

Just been through the first 6 months with Touchstone and well, they got lots to improve before they can say that they care.
First of all, my flat was advertised having a dishwasher, and seeing similar flats in the same street we didn't have any doubts ...

Comment on agent fees
Agency fees are not worth it - 200 to do a credit check and a reference check experience does credit check for free, 1 phone call to your current employer does not cost more then 1 pound on the phone bill

Touchstone (dis)managed the flat we're renting. During this time anything that needed fixing took weeks or months. The washing machine broke and it took 3 weeks and weekly calls to get someone to have a look at it and after that it took 8 weeks to ...

There's a full A4 list of additional fees that Touchstone will charge the tenants. Over £100 for renewing the contract and other madness.

When we viewed the house in 2015, it was in a terrible state. However, we were promised that the house would be professionally cleaned and repainted before we moved in. To which it was. It was also part of the contract agreement, that we would have ...

What agent could do to change your mind?
If customers are on the phone, I would hope the person on the other end would have the common decency to listen to what I am saying and not to talk over me. Frankly I do not believe that any amount of feedback is going to resolve the ugly little people in this organisation. All they have done with me is make a business relationship enterily personal.Attached Filesnbsp;
Comment on agent fees
I was allocated Touchstone when my landlord decided to stop paying his rent so the property was taken control of by Barclays Bank. I never wanted or entered into a contract with this disgraceful bunch of slum lords.Attachments
