Worst letting agents ever. Flat not very clean on entry. No heating for weeks in Jan. No hot water for months. Gave out personal details to third party and were in violation of data protection. Billed me for cleaning flat after I moved out when ...

Do not use Contempo... whether a tenant or a landlord. We rented a property from them... never again. We were over a month without a working cooker, we waited over a month for them to fix a toilet seat and we didn't have light in ...

AVOID! AVOID!
They will utilise every sneaky, lying arsenal to steal your money. From refusing to come and carry out a check out in your presence to sending out bogus, over-inflated cleaning charges 6 weeks later. Oh and they will, to get you too sign, lie ...

Hi Temi,
Thank you very much for taking the time to review and I'm very sorry to hear that this has been your experience.
Unfortunately the brief details given don't match any of our recent tenancies, so if you would like to contact me with some more information on [email protected] i can certainly look into your specific case.
In general terms, check out inventories are always carried out shortly after the last date of your tenancy. After that, the check out report is sent ...

Hi Judith,
Myself and my flatmate made our issues extremely clear (living without water for over a fortnight is not something we would keep quiet about). Grant was our first point of contact hence why all of our issues went through him. Additionally, you failed to inform us when the property was advertised - which was a (small) request that we made specifically to you and despite saying that you would do this - you did not, so unfortunately I am doubtful that it would have made much of differ ...

Agents were extremely unresponsive, continual issues with heating resulted in dampness and mildew. Judith eventually agreed in March after 3 months of complaints that the faulty heaters would be replaced that week but this never happened and the flat was vacated in June with the upgrade ...

Hi Girls,
Many thanks for taking the time to post your review. I am sorry to hear that you had a bad experience.
I'm sure we explained at the time that we are not allowed to spend for this property without the landlord's written permission which can (and did) lead to delays, which we find just as frustrating as you... believe me I hate to read poor reviews of my business.
With regards to the deposit - because we use a tenant deposit scheme, all claims for tenant funds are sent to an independ ...

What agent could do to change your mind?
The customer service needs worked on greatly. All that I was looking for was an apology for wasting my time and improvements made on the advertisement. There was no remorse shown for the error by Contempo Lettings but instead a level of rudeness.Attached Filesnbsp;

The portal that I had initially found the advert on was LettingWeb and the portal that the member of staff had mentioned was Citylets so there should have been no problems with this. Either way, neither of the sites stated this information and it is an important detail to be mentioned. It has been an error on Contempo Lettings part that could have been put right with a simple apology and correction of the advert, which is all I was looking for. Not to be told that I was, in effect, looking at th ...

With the help of the SafeDeposit Scotland, I am able to get back almost every penny claimed by the Contempo Lettings, Aberdeen. I am got back the entire amount M/s Contempo Letting hd claimed for the breakage in the flat and towards cleaning of the flat. But ofcourse, I could not get back the extra days rent as I had already agreed to pay it to them. I believe, if I had not then I would have get back that too!! I dnt know, now whether Mr. Judith from the Contempo Lettings will reply anything tow ...

Hi Brian,
Unfortunately Sasha did not state that Thursday was the first available viewing, she stated that Thursday was the next available viewing of the property from the time that you contacted her (earlier viewings had already been secured).
To quote from Sasha’s email – ‘We're really busy this week with viewings so at the moment the next available viewing we have for this property is at 1:45pm on Thursday, can you manage then?’
When you called our office ...

They change their attitude quickly once we end the tenancy, and everything went so unprofessional after that, also tend to charge us with a lot if things.Attached Filesnbsp;

Hi Ryan & James,
I am sorry to hear you were so disappointed with Contempo Lettings.
All our deposits are handled by Safe Deposit Scotland and the independent review of your check out report concluded that we were fully justified in the deductions we made to your deposit.
If you are unhappy with this ruling, then you can contact the Property Ombudsman of which we are members.
Kind regards,
Judith ...
