Excellent professional service from Ravi Leal. House sale went through very quickly and Ravi always keeping me informed. As there was nobody living there Ravi had the key and dealt with all viewings, making selling a house easy. Thanks again for your excellent customer service.

Hi there, can I ask who you spoke to from "Irwin Fisher"? I believe there maybe a confusion. If it was "I.F Let's", then "I.F Lets" is not the same as Irwin Fisher. Irwin Fisher has had a change of ownership since two years. U believe the previous owner maybe still be using "Irwin Fisher" to continue his lettings. If you can confirm this, I can help you out. Cheers ...

Sorry to hear your sad, fake story. I challenge you to come forward with your REAL name, property details and maybe we can assist or help with your query. How about making an official complaint via our complaints procedure? if that doesn't work how about informing the TPO about your query. I invite you to come forward, put on this platform that you trust soo much about who you are, which property you own, that’s if you even own one so everyone can read. Lets put a face to this. I give you cred ...

Please call the office on 020 8594 5198 to speak to a member of staff and register your complaint. Stop ranting on this baseless, unregulated platform.

Thank you for your thoughts and insight to a bizarre complain. We as a team have tried jogging our memory and can't seem to verify who Krai" is and which friends recommended you. You complain lacks weight, accuracy and more importantly facts. Firstly, we do not protect deposits with Mydeposit. So who gave you this information that we protect deposits with Mydeposit? Secondly, you winning the judgement against us? What type of court did you visit or make the application to? A court that never bot ...
