My boyfriend and I moved into one of the properties in Portobello Village two and half years ago. It was our first place together so we were both looking forward to moving. Four months in problems began with regards to repairs. Our toilet broke several times where we were left for 24 hours without water. We were told there was an emergency line to call however when we called, no one was available to come out at that time. Our underfloor heating then broke which was reported and not dealt with for months. After months of continuous phone calls, the caretaker arrived at my door with a small blow heater to compensate. The heating system was never replaced so I purchased two of my own and made do. Six months in we received an electricity bill for over £2000. I worked full time and lived ins one bedroom property so found it difficult to understand the cost. I called the electric company who confirmed Jhoots had given an incorrect opening meter reading and it was therefore reduced. The problem didn't end there. We continued to receive electricity bills more than what it would cost to run a three bedroom house. In one six month period we had alledegly used over 7000 kW of electricity. The list goes on...
I am no longer a tenant and for my first experience of living alone it was awful. Building is in poor condition, my flat was covered in damp.
Please consider this review as you will most definitely experience what I have.
What agent could do to change your mind?
Paid ‚£475 a month for a property with no heating and damp. Also I believe that I have been paying the communal heating.
