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.

Absolutely fine until it comes to moving out and then they will rob you blind and state that you haven't left the property how they expect you to.

We booked viewing as property shown on advert was "available now"... On viewing we quickly found out this was not the case. Property still needed carpets/flooring fitting. We were assured that this will be ready for us to move in just before Xmas. We decided to proceed with holding ... Read Full Review

Awful experience trying to rent a property with this incompetent money grabbing company. Manager does not respond regarding complaint. Refusal to give my holding fee back when it's their fault it went over the time scale because incompetent staff are unable to read emails and not give updates. ... Read Full Review

Absolutely shocking. Viewed a property and filled in the application, and even stated that my job was as and when, as I am the nurse bank so don't know my exact hours as they change. Was told it was fine, 'just put an average' they said. I hadn't even started my 1st shift yet! But assured me and my ... Read Full Review

At least to show some respect and transparancy, If let was agreed about a property, state so, if not interested in a particular customer to mention the reason. If they are too busy to accomodate another customer, please say so. And over all, please do not take over good properties to just make them stagnant in the market, this is just unfair for everyone.

I have never felt the need to write a review about anything until dealing with this company. Experience was so poor and stressful I feel I must share. Acquire were fine as letting agents as long as you wanted absolutely nothing from them. Maintenance issues were reported over and over again with a ... Read Full Review
- Communication between agents - Answer emails and return phonecalls - Follow up on maintenance problems - Give warnings for flat checks - Not charge such extortionate fees - Return deposits promptly - Learn how to speak to clients politely. Would much prefer honesty to hostility and allegations if something has gone wrong.

This agent treated us despicable as tenants, and speaking as a tenant their property management is not worth the money that they "*" extract from the "*" landlords. I had to take this agent to court for where they were issued with a CCJ for unlawfully withholding my deposit. ... Read Full Review
By giving my deposit back on time, carry out property maintenance when told about a problem, some people just shouldn\'t be working in the public sector. Extremely poor customer service.
