They have lied to me about them contacting my guarantor for their details, even though my guarantor had assured me they had given the ... Read Full Review

Worst company ever! After weeks of chasing up over the phone, Countrywide finally gave me a viewing slot for a rental property in Glasgow on a Saturday at 2.30pm. Apparently, the existing tenants were being difficult and not allowing them access to the property. Nevermind. Atleast I got a viewing ... Read Full Review

We moved in on the 6th of March, since that point we have had no hot water or heating. It is currently the 16th and so we have went 10 days without a resolution.

Pretty standard to the agents I had out to give valuation. Although they included the cost of them completing the viewings within the fee which made my life easier.

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.
