I share rented a house in Devizes. 6 months in I was accused of an an assault which never took place. The police arrested me as they must do with any complaint of assault -even if false. The lodger who I contend was trying to frame me took it upon themselves to knock all the doors of neighbours, the landlady and also visit the estate agents to inform them of this alleged assault. This person put pinch marks on their neck and said that I had puncher her. Infact it was she who assaulted me! I had a shiner on my cheek to prove it! The next thing that happens is I am informed by Strakers that I have roken my tenancy agreement by being arrested and must leave the premises within 2 weeks! You are allowed by law to have 2 months to vacate a premises. That aside I told Strakers that these charges that were laid before me were false and that the charges would be dropped by the police - so not to penalise me for false accusations. They were not interested at all. They wanted me out and said that they would evict me within the 2 weeks. I told them I would see them in court if that was attempted. Still in the meantime I was forced to go on the hunt for another house as I realised Strakers were inflexible and were not interested in fair play and hearing both sides of a story and letting the police deal with this matter properly so as to clear me. I found another house and had to arrange at my own expense to remove my belongings and did this within the 2 weeks luckily. The agents from Strakers came to inspect the house and claimed that decorations would need to be done as I had done damage to the place. This was completely false as when I arrived the kitchen cupboards were actually hanging off the wall at an angle and many things like this I had corrected and I kept a full range of photos of every room to prove beyond any doubt that I had infact cleaned the place up not damaged it. I even decorated some areas as they were well away at my own expense and the garden was a complete mess - fungus on all the concrete walls which I even cleaned and stone masonry paint applied to huge area - transforming the whole garden. They still wanted to have a depive me of my deposit. So I said to them I would rather stay for my legally allowed 2 months and fight this through the courts if they were going to try and be awkward with me over giving me my full deposit back. I was treated like I was some form of criminal by the agents and given snyde behaviour throughout. To get me out thy gave me my full deposit back begrudgingly but completely AS SO THEY SHOULD! As it turned out 2 months on I was informed that all investigations against me were dropped as there was NO EVIDENCE. I wasnt at any time even charged - this was simply an enquiry. So as I told Strakers they had acted against me when I was completely innocent acting as Judge and Jury against me when they didnt even know any of the details. So a short while after the police cleared me I went in to Strakers and spoke to the lady who evicted me and was starting to tell her that I had this case dropped but she just cut me off and pointed to the door and said Get out otherwise I will call the police. I refused to leave until I had told her and the other staff in ear shot that I was totally innocent and they evicted me unfairly from my home which cost me a lot of money to do for no good reason, then I left. All my dealings with them were terrible and I would suggest that anyone be aware that if you let from them - they will do the same to you if for any reason they dislike you or you get into any minor trouble through no fault of your own - you will be booted out on your head! AVOID THEM LIKE THE PLAGUE.
