We paid our rent on time each month for over 3 years and now that we have moved out they are claiming we paid late a number of times and saying we owe them in the region of 400 pounds charging 25 pounds + VAT for letters that were not sent, even checking my bank records and proving that the rent was paid on time. They are also trying to claim damage that was already there was done by us so they are withholding the deposit even after we showed them the initial inspection document clearly stating the damage the was already there. The last month we were there we over paid the rent as we moved out part way through the month, we were told we would receive the balance of the last months rent back in 2 weeks, it is now 8 weeks and still nothing has been returned. They have double charged rent on the property for 18 days, claiming rent from ourselves and the new tenants. We also had numerous problems when they were arranging viewing for new prospective tenants, I gave clear advanced warning that I was working nights and that I would be happy for them to arrange viewings after 5 pm to allow me to sleep but they still turned up unannounced without giving the legal requirement of 24 hours notice. We have left numerous messages and tried calling people but no one seems to know whats going on or return my calls. I would strongly that advise no one ever rent through them as they are unprofessional. I have heard through work colleagues that this is not an unfamiliar story and they have previously had to pursue complaints with the financial ombudsmen.
