Never in my existence have I ever met more corrupt, greedy and above all inept company. The world has never seen the coming together of crooks in this way since the Kray twins. Lie, hussle, steal and swindle seems to be their motto. You can expect to pay 3-5x more in factoring if you have Hacking and Paterson as your property factor, I would strongly advise not go near a property where they are involved in essence you will pay considerably more on top of your mortgage!

Horrendous company. No proper invoicing, random bills with no details of work carried out, can't set up direct debit, don't respond to queries unless you pester them. Billed us £200 when we sold our house even though account up to date. Couldn't give rationale for charges but ended up paying to avoid adverse credit rating. Need to be investigated, anyone have a direct line to Martin Lewis? ...

This company are crooked in the extreme. We had to endure a leaking roof for two years as they would not do anything about it, with the excuse 'they didn't have enough people who wanted it'. Everyone loves a leaking roof, right? The lights were out for years until the desperate neighbours put in a temporary measure, and they allowed one family to take electrical risks ( the trailing cable is still along the floor, attached to an untethered wobbly lamp in a communal area.
