Stay away from them.
First of all, they make you pay for the things that no other agency charges you. They require you to do your own referencing (£30+), before you sign the contract. They also make you pay (£25) for the Landlord reference when you need it for your next flat.
Secondly, they are very responsive and accommodating before you move into the flat and sign the contract, however as soon as you are in all communication stops and you will have to fight to actually get some attention. It took me about two weeks of constant chasing up and calls to fix the most basic issues with the flat, such as not working blinds etc. After living in the flat for several months, some issues were still not resolved
I couldn't get them to fix my boiler and the main door too
They charged me 1/3 of my deposit taking £45 for cleaning, even though I left the flat in exactly the same state as it was when I moved in (apart from some small damages to the wall due to corridor being tiny.

Excellent. You’d expect tenants to leave poor reviews in certain circumstances so for me the proper judge of an agent is the reviews left by landlords, of which I am one. I have now passed my full portfolio of properties to DAH. Smashing fast ...

Good afternoon Jeff, Sorry to hear how you feel about the level of service received from dial a home however, unfortunately you did not meet current rental criteria including landlord reference and currently not in employment. It is therefore standard procedure to request additional security e.g. advance rent. As members of SAL (Scottish association of landlords) I can confirm that this is not illegal for letting agents / landlords to ask for this as long as it is reflected on your lease - which ...

For properties to lease/rent in England, agents need to keep this information up to date and precise on allAgents or specify within the property description.
