According to Companies House they moved offices yet AGAIN in Oct 2016 to: 3301w Pan Peninsula Square, London, England, E14 9HL
As with other recent commentators, I have been badly let down by this agent who is not answering any calls or responding to anything - suspect the company is bust or about to go bust.

This man just doesn't stop conning people, he took rent from my tenants and never transfered it to me, he is still in business taking money from landlords and tenants. He is just a black spot on society, if he owes you money by all ...

Much like all of the other users on this thread, Ammal Nasir and Island Estates tried to make off with rent which had been paid by our tenant to IE, but not passed on to us as landlords. We threatened to sue Ammal and Island ...

He didn't return my deposit and didn't protect it either.
It wasn't even that much, I just don't like the principle.
I'm organising a group of people to do something about it.
Please let me know how much money does Ammal Nasir owes you and ...

There is a comment from 16 Jan to say Nasir, Director, was arrested recently but released and has now fled to Dubai. Facebook photos seem to confirm he is sunning himself there, probably on the proceeds of your rental and ours. We feel utterly dismayed by ...

Dose anyone take legal action and get court help?

My experience with Island Estates has been nothing more than abysmal. I have never encountered such unprofessionalism in my life. They are the kind of agency that give real estate its terrible reputation of being money-hungry liars.
Our issues with the estate agent, Ammal, started ...

DO NOT USE THIS AGENT!
Ammal Nasir the Director owes money and is not contacting any of those he owes money to.
He is asking prospective tenants for 3/6months rent in advance and then keeping the money himself!...

Disgraceful agent:
Advertised my property for rent on Zoopla and Rightmove completely and entirely without my permission. I made no contact with them, they just hi-jacked and took screenshots of an advert I personally wrote and placed on Gumtree.

Hi,
I am very sorry that your experience with Island Estates has been anything but amazing. I thank you for your feedback as it will help us to constantly improve our customer experiences.
To address your concerns:
1. In regard to the bedrooms of the property, the flat was described as a 4 bed originally and after we had done our due diligence, the property did not have a license to be used as a 4 bedroom and could only be used as a 3 bedroom. That was why there was a difference in the ...
