SCAMMERS! Firstly, charge us £80 referencing fee per person to obtain a reference, even though our previous landlords had emailed them to us, and secondly, when needing a reference for our flat afterwards, they charged us £30 per person. Yet to have our inventory checked, but looking forward to the bogus cleaning charges.
What agent could do to change your mind?
charged no ILLEGAL fees, and not been such a rip off!

Raine was really helpful and kind during the inspection. I am delightful to do the inspection together with her. Plus, the landlord was very kind. I met them twice, and they even clean the garden for us. Kudos to Littlejohn for the great services!...

We rented from Littlejohns a number of years ago when letting fees were still legal! and their fees were high especially as it was per person not for the flat so it was an unexpected cost, but the flat itself and the service we had ...

at the time fees were really high but they are now abolished so shouldn't be a problem for new tenants

Hello Sarah - I think when Fees were chargeable you would find it was per person with other Agents as well but as you now rightly say they are now abolished. We would like to thank you for taking the time to write this view and leave comments. We wish you all the very best. ...

Worst service ever. I urge you to do your research before signing anything. I wish I had. We moved into our flat and found it to be disgustingly dirty. It was over the holiday season and so we stupidly cleaned the flat ourselves. We took ...

They look to charge you for tenancy agreements (most charges can be dropped if you look into them). They will also charge you for ridiculous reasons on check out

I found out that they have been entering my rented flat without my knowledge. Their excuse is that they sent me an email, I must not have gotten it. There was no email and I've also discovered that this is not a single occurrence and it has really shook me up to think of a stranger coming into my home (as it turns out on a number of occasion) when I'm at work. Also the realisation that I have zero privacy. I shall be making a complaint to the relevant ombudsman and if I catch wind that they'v ...

Littlejohns have some great staff; but a bad company. First up, they still charge illegal premiums, conclusively outlawed in 2012. When challenged on this they threatened me with legal action for defamation, which is patent nonsense. After I began a legal challenge they IMMEDIATELY returned the ...
