I advise any potential renters to avoid using Chancellors!!! Trying to rent a property with them has been absolute chaos. We completed the paperwork straight away and we’re referred to a reference company called ‘Canopy’ to process our references. Well, Canopy I’m not ...

The worst. Don’t do anything with them, ever! I would rate it 0 stars but I can’t. They were late with the keys and we had to pay in our old apartment, no apologies, and now they want to charge for one night....

Horrendous agency. Ceiling collapsed and tenants are still a few weeks without a home. There has been no apology, days and days between communications with a different person each time not knowing what was going on. Do not recommend at all....

Absolutely horrendous.
If you're ok with breach of data protection and disclosure of your personal finances to your ex-husband, hey, go with Chancellors.
They are SO inept, unbelievably arrogant, inordinately incompetent and even with numerous court demands, they refused to engage. At your peril....

I rented from Chancellors and the below lettings reviews are 100% correct. They are a nightmare. When it suits them financially, they are nice to you. Once you sign, they are rude, constantly lie, especially Grace and Gemma. They will do anything to hold back your ...

I don't normally post, but feel responsible for saving other prospective landlords the agony using Chancellors 'Chesham'.
There has been no benefit to using Chancellors. Only Stress!
There is a general lack of courtesy and care since contracts have been signed.

From the very outset Chancellors were quite difficult to deal with.
Only about 25% of my calls were ever returned, they couldn't even help out with bathroom size (not on floorpan) as "they don't have a tape measure".
Their completions department were pretty clueless too, all ...
