What agent could do to change your mind?
They could have responded more quickly, been more sympathetic. Replied to our emails / calls / voicemails. Been more professional in their manner. Apologised when they were in the wrong. Allowed us contact with our landlord in order to speed up certain processes. Not given our keys out to random members of the landlord's family. Informed us when builders were coming round, so we weren't surprised by strange men in our flat first thing in the morning (an essential, in a house of girls).
