About the most untrustworthy person I have had the pleasure in meeting, would do better deals for cash as opposed to going through 'the bank', have used another agent where 'cash' was never mentioned....

I moved into one of the properties for rent with Brian Thomas few months ago, so far so good.. my flat is lovely and so is the landlord (don't judge a book by its cover) When I initially came in the office a guy called Jack was very welcoming as so was Mr Lane, I was shown two properties with jack which I put a holding deposit for one of them straight away as I know how fast they go. I am so glad I did this because I am not looking to move anytime soon and I know how hard it is to find the ...

I am a previous tenant and found this agency to be one of the most helpful, I have been renting for 10 yrs now and in my experience i have come across some agencies that are shocking beyond belief! from the day I walked in off the street randomly into Brian Thomas they have been nothing but pleasant to me.. I came to them in a desperate situation from a previous property (different agents) and will never forget or thank them enough for the way the helped me find the right place to move to. Some...

Absolutely shocking service. No more than an unprofessional, rude, bully. Given misinformation about the end of tenancy and in dispute about return of deposit. Had been good ttenants and looked after the property, only to be accused of not cleaning it. Reported maintenance issues on multiple occasions only to be ignored. Had to threaten calling environmental health to get a serious mould problem dealt with. As a tenant, do not use this firm under any circumstances. They are absolute cowboys....

Absolutely terrible! I don't even know where to begin with how awful this letting agency really is. They are rude, unhelpful and nefarious. From my experience they are simply money-grabbing crooks, being knowingly uncooperative and even deceitful. They have often pretended not to have any knowledge of issues you have tired on numerous occasions to contact them about, promising to get in touch, and then consistently failing to do so. They have often lied directly to us and ultimately cost us lo...

Do not rent from these crooks! They treated me very badly and did not return my deposit for many months. I had to obtain a statutory declaration to get it back. They were rude and unhelpful telling me I was a 'silly girl and I did not understand' when I told them I would report them and get my money back through the DPS. The flat had severe damp and they tried to blame me for this. They did a whole load of other unscrupulous stuff too much to list. I repeat DO NOT RENT FROM THEM UNLESS YOU LIKE ...

Very shady. We found this out when we moved out and wanted to get our deposit back from DPS. It turned out that someone from Brian Thomas had called DPS and pretended to be one of my housemates and released our deposit to themselves. We tried citizens advice and called the police, but they said our option was basically to take them to court but the chances were it would cost more than our deposits....

Through Brian Thomas I was able to find the best en suite I have seen during my search, at the best price with the best landlord ever. Never judge a book from the cover; I can only say thank you to John, the agent I dealt with on the day that by chance I walked through their door. I am extremely happy with my new place, Brian Thomas is not managing the property but is thank to them that I have found this place and this excellent landlord. All other agents I dealt with prior to Brian Th...

What a waste of time - they are so pleasant in front of the vendors. Once you start the negotiating process, communications is so poor. They don\'t even call you back customer service level minimal. Recommendation is to avoid them and use alternative agents in the area....

What agent could do to change your mind?
Be more professional and deal with clients with a long term view rather than thinking short term.

What a disgusting, foul-mouthed and ignorant man. He is truly representative of this grubby little agency. I went in to discuss the condition of the property and was told to "F Off" by this unsavoury character. I now have to resort to legal action Yes, this agency has a lot of properties and, yes, they tend to be cheaper than others but, before you give these cowboys any money, please read the reviews on here....

After noticing a very interesting property on their website I booked a viewing for Saturday morning at 12 pm; I was the first person to view the flat therefore I was told by the estate agent called John that if I liked the property I had to put an holding deposit down to secure it. The flat was indeed very nice and I told John that I would take it. John was happy and he told me to withdraw £300 to secure it, so while he went back to the office to prepare the paper works I went to the cash ...

What agent could do to change your mind?
The agent should have not discriminated me on the basis of me being a foreigner. I have never felt this way before and I do not want to feel it ever again. I will never even walk close to that agency again.

Horrible! I can\'t recomment this estate agency. They lied to us several times, we had to pay more ( for the time we were not living at this house) even when they ensured us previously that we won\'t have to. Cockroaches, bedbugs everywhere, very dirty backyard and interior. I want to warn everyone who wants to use services of this agency - they don\'t care about you or the house at all, they just want your money!...

As ex tenants we would recommend steering well clear of Brian Thomas estate Agent. They breeched the contract (lease) by entering our property without notice and left items behind/lights on/ things moved. When asked if they had been in our house the office did not know so we had to change the lock. They refused to acknowledge any wrong doing or repay us so we took the money from the rent. When we moved out the deposit Protection Scheme could not help us as Chris Lane (Owner) refused to rele...

Good response and better than the previous lot who managed the property. Did give a list of gripes to Brian Thomas and was given a list numbers for handymen and engineers to call myself which I thought kind of defeated the purpose of having a managing agent. Aside from that, friendly staff and a genuine interest in how things are....
