As an international real estate investor, I have dealt with managers and factors of various standards in Europe, USA and Asia.
I have had this property and this factor for 3 years now, and it is amazing to see how consistent their incompetence and laziness is. It's like some have indicated: They do it on purpose, just because they want to be evil!
I have never seen anything like this, not even in developing countries. My conclusion is that if a company can stay in business with a consistent substandard performance like this, the system is broken. I cannot fix the system, but I can sell and never invest in UK again. I feel sorry for all the hard working, nice and honest people that have to endure doing business with this company and its employees, when they have no interest or competence in doing the job they are hired to do, and there is seemingly no easy way out of the situation.
What agent could do to change your mind?
The factor needs to remove present employees and employ competent people and then establish and implement a simple quality management system with objectives, vision and mission where the customer satisfaction is the main objective. (A 180 degree turnaround from present situation.)

What agent could do to change your mind?
In the instance of the first address, the agent, upon realising I was unhappy and found him unprofessional should have referred me to his manager instead of ignoring me. No-one at all has responded to any of my emails since I moved to my new address. A basic response or acknowledgement would have sufficed!
