I can't even rate this company. Absolutely shocking service. All of the reviews on this page are correct. For starters they never answer the phone. Ever. When they do it's all this * about how they can't access anything and that the inspections they do twice in the tenancy - yano the ones where they come and make sure you haven't smashed a hole in wall. They don't actually note anything done that you tell them these inspectors. So when I told the woman and man of several issues with the flat which FYI never got sorted out and that's because they don't even report it back to the office. Lol what a joke. The only nice person I ever dealt with was Emily when she showed me round the flat I went on to rent but my god they must have it down to a T that they send out the nice girl and lure you into a false sense of security and the rest of them are arrogant *s who are incapable of doing their job. Everything that's going on with the whole set up is #dodgey. The standard of the flat in terms of cleanliness and the standard of everything working was a JOKE. They claimed it had been professionally cleaned - my five year old god son could've done a better job of cleaning it with a tooth brush. Yet somehow they're trying to charge me £200 quid to have the flat professionally cleaned despite the fact I left it spotless AND the evident fact that it was not professionally cleaned prior to me moving in. Poor tenants before me got RIPPED OFF if they paid it. They're not even at 214 Monton Rd now they're in some shitty office space in the old Salford Town Hall which would suggest they've fallen on hard times and there was no sign outside to notify that Allison & Co were working from that address. All very #dodgey. I am outraged with all of the check out chargers they are putting to me when I myself work in the industry and am well aware of what is fare wear and tear and what is not. If you are viewing a property with Allison & Co seriously stay away. Go and rent with another agent because it is not worth the hassle. DO NOT DO IT TO YOURSELVES. Seriously steer clear. I never write reviews like this but I literally would not want anyone to have to go through the s* I'm going through with them. They do not give a s* about you they just want your money. Oh and funny thing is they emailed me saying if I wanted to keep the tenancy on my rent would be going up £25 quid but when is searched for the property on RightMove (the pictures are sooo out of date) they were advertising it for £595 a month. Blamed the increase on 'VAT'. My mother is a landlord and has agreed that everything that Allison & Co do is a disgrace. I'm so surprised it is still trading as a company. They are absolute scammers and I can't believe people choose to let their properties through this business.

Hi B, I can understand your disappointment as this is a lovely apartment! However it wasn't a "false advertisement". The tenant had told us they were vacating so we began re-marketing. Our website loads to the advertising portals within 20 mins but the next day they advised us of a change in circumstances and asked if it was possible to stay afterall. Apologies again however if you register with us we can let you know of any other property that may meet your requirements. Thanks Allison, Di ...
