Thank you for your review Veronique. We do not manage all of the properties we rent out. With regards to this property, the Landlord instructed works to be carried out at the property when you had vacated without our knowledge. We were therefore not aware of this situation.

Thank you for your feedback. I note that your review (above) was written before most of the issues were resolved. Our inventories do state that if anything is removed from any of the rooms, they need to be put back 'so they are easily seen'. It seems as though you bagged up many items and put them in a cupboard. The inventory clerk did not go through the contents of the cupboards which is where a lot of the missing items were found (the inventory states that you will be charged if the Inventory ...

The fee you are referring to is clearly outlined in the Tenancy Agreement which you are advised to read and take legal advice on before signing. Our Tenants Guide and confirmation documents detail what methods of payment we accept. We contact Landlords and Tenants prior to the expiry of the tenancy to establish whether they intend to renew the tenancy for a further term. At no point is pressure put on either party or a rent increase above RPI suggested. Our internal complaints departme ...

The Tenants were not advised there would be no penalty if they vacated prior to the expiry of the tenancy. The clauses in the Tenancy Agreement are all in the same size font. The cost has no relation to the re-letting of the flat. In order for replacement Tenants to take over an existing tenancy an original Tenant would have to continue living at the property and be named on the Tenancy Agreement. The Tenants were not blamed for condensation on the bathroom walls and no deductions were made ...

Tenant Fees

Overall Fees
£0 (inc. VAT), On Completion

We may charge a tenant any or all of the following when required:

the rent;
a security deposit with a maximum of 5 weeks rent, or 6 weeks on a property with rent over £50,000 per year;
a holding deposit of no more than one weeks's rent;
default fee for late payment of rent (after 14 days);
reasonable charges for lost keys or security fobs;
payments associated with contract variation, at £50 or reasonable costs incurred if higher, when requested by the tenant;
payments associated with early termination of the tenancy, when requested by the tenant; and
payments in respect of bills - utilities, communication services, TV licence, council tax and green deal or other energy efficiency charges.

Last updated on 31/05/2019, 6:35 PM by Miles Ponder

Kindly note that legally, letting agents need to publish information about their tenancy fees, government-approved redress schemes and client money protection schemes on their website and on third party websites (on which agents are listed). For properties to lease/rent in England, agents need to keep this information up to date and precise on allAgents or specify within the property description.

Complaints Procedure

How To Complain


If you have a problem, we can help


We aim to offer you the best possible service, but there may be occasions when you feel you have cause for complaint. If so, we will always try to resolve the problem quickly and to your satisfaction.If you are unhappy with our response, you can take your complaint further through our complaints procedure.


All complaints received must be in writing/email. All written complaints must be signed.  Staff will provide assistance to the person making the complaint, with the assurance that the complaint will be treated sensitively and confidentially as far as possible.


Where you first make your complaint
 
We aim to resolve your concerns within 24 hours. Sometimes it may take longer to look into the matter fully. If this happens, we will acknowledge the complaint in writing within three working days – and a proper investigation promptly undertaken.  A formal written outcome of the investigation will be sent to you within 15 working days.


Often the people you first raise the matter with are able to help, but there may be occasions when a Manager needs to become involved.


If you are still not happy

In the unlikely event that you remain unhappy, you can ask for your complaint to be referred to a Director for further review. If you are still not satisfied after the review, you can, at this stage, ask The Property Ombudsman to help.
Taylor Gibbs fully supports and is a member of The Property Ombudsman Scheme. They are impartial and conduct independent investigations. 
Following our complaints procedure does not affect your legal rights.
