They are the worst letting agency I have ever dealt with. They are rude, unpleasant and unhelpful. We are good tenants always paid our bills on time etc. But they insisted on resorting to bullying practices. They failed to inform us that for the first half of our tenancy our house would be a building site as the roof was replaced. This wasn't finished until late in the year when the cold and damp was getting into the house. Further they then accused us of letting the damp get in and mould develop, the bullying tactics and threats were only stopped when we told them we'd take the matter further to the ombudsman. They failed to carry out maintenance we reported throughout the year. Or leaving it weeks before the issue was dealt with. The kitchen wall was damp with water clearly rising up through the wall, but this was 3 weeks before someone could come round to even look at. Overall they were rude and obnoxious. Even when visiting the office. They have no respect for those they deal with. And talking to them they didn't want to know who you were only that you'd interrupted their day.
They could of been courtesy and pleasant in their dealings. They could of responded promptly to emails and issues. They should of avoided digging remarks and bullying tactics, especially when it came to form signing and maintenance issues. They could of maintained a friendly communication connection with us which we felt we could contact without issue or remark. Being rude wasn\'t necessary or making us feel like we were unwanted vermin in a house that we were paying to live in.

5 Aug 2014I (Jade) have always dealt with Prolet tenants in a friendly and professional manner and feel as if it is unfair that you have used my name to make this review - as i know i'am never rude, always friendly and abide by the company's policies and procedures. I'am sorry that you have not had a good experience with Prolet and it is unfortunate that you have not used your real name to make this post and that i or my manager are unable to contact you direct to try to resolve this issue.

DO NOT USE During Covid, myself and my housemates were promised a rolling contract on our property once our current contract had ended. Then, days before the contract was due to expire, we were told the rolling option was not available, meaning that we had to alter plans and that it cost us a ... Read Full Review

I have rented through Prolet a couple of times and cannot understand why they get so many negative reviews on this site. I can only imagine that people make the effort to write one when they have had a bad experience rather than commenting on the positive ones. Anyway, I would say that they are ... Read Full Review

I have stayed in Prolets student properties for two years now. Not only are they poorly fitted out properties at extortionate prices, but run by unprofessional and unorganised agents that frankly do not care about the issues that arise from living in their below standard properties.

My experience with Prolet has been an absolute disaster. They are unorganised, unprofessional and just plain rude. They do not return calls, and when they do they are unbelievably rude. They tried to bill us multiple times for the same issue and tried to get money out of us at every turn. I will ... Read Full Review

I have lived in this property for two years now and I have had constant problems each year. The first year started with cleaners every week who cleaned our rooms thoroughly, changed our bedsheets, changed our bins, washed up and hoovered the entire house therefore I expected that in the second ... Read Full Review
The problem should have been fixed when it first occurred 12 weeks ago. Even compensation will not make up for the horrific conditions I have had to put up with for the last 12 weeks. I want cleaners to tidy our rooms every week again and I want the staff to start speaking to me with the respect and politeness that I deserve.

Disgusting customer service. Prolet treat their tenants with zero respect. They will come round for viewings with no advance warning. They lost my bank details on a form, resulting in a £700 fraud attempt, which I luckily got refunded. When a delivery service failed to pick up one of my trunks, ... Read Full Review
Treated us with respect, not thrown out half my possessions, not lost my bank details resulting in fraud.
