Right where to start!! Temples were brilliant until we had signed the contract and then everything went down hill. Both myself and my partner at the time were excited as it was our first home together however as soon as we moved into the property the communication between temples and ourselves ceased to exist. We weren't too concerned as we did not have any problems whilst we were in the property other than the boiler (the boiler issue was dealt with via the out of hours call line so temples actually didn't deal with this) Unfortunately when we had to move out of the property 5 months prior to the contract ending due to personal issues this was when temples in Nantwich really showed how incapable their team were with dealing with the smallest of tasks. I don't know which was worse, having a new person email us each and every time we got in touch, the lack of communication between every single member of staff at the branch or the sheer lack of urgency they displayed. We remained in our contract and applied for an early release. The property was vacant for 5 months yet they happily took every penny from us, we are only in our early 20s so trying to support a new flat (30 miles away) plus the rent of a £600pcm house on a single wage was to say the least difficult let alone when they charged us for everything you could imagine; reference fees (which took them literally 2 minutes to do but 2 weeks to return) re advertising fees (even though they did not advertise). I personally went into the branch on multiple occasions to try and get things moving as I could not afford to carry on like that, the stress alone made me sick. They did not care, they carried on passing us off onto their colleagues. Finally my Ex bumped into the MD one day and we thought this would really get things moving again but yet the problems still remained... they left the property to stand for 5 months until they did their end of tenancy checks.... This is where it became a joke..... "presence of cobwebs", "Dust on Skirting boards", "Dust in Cupboards", "Dust on light fittings", "Carpets required cleaning due to dust", "Garden Required tidying as overgrown (WE LEFT IN FEBRUARY IT IS NOW LATE JULY!!!)" 33 pages of pathetic photos of dust and leaves because they were not able to get their arses into gear, hey they were happy at the end of the day they were still getting their money so why should they?!? Just Short of £500 they want from us for the pleasure of them running a duster around and only because they have the inability to actually do their jobs. "The fact that we are independent – not tied to a large franchise or an add-on to an estate agency – means our service can be flexed to meet the individual needs of our customers, whatever their circumstances. All our people are empowered to make decisions on behalf of customers, so can provide timely responses in your best interests." (Temples Website, 2016) This statement above is what they preach on their website... Everything we have experienced in the short 12 months with them completely contradicts their values. They really do not have the slightest intention of helping their tenants, they have no ability to work as a team even though they are situated in the same building, communication skills are awful and well their decision making ability is laughable. I strongly recommend you completely avoid Temples in Nantwich, unfortunately It is too late for us and we will be dealing with their tardiness for the foreseeable.

Kindly note that legally, letting agents need to publish information about their tenancy fees, government-approved redress schemes and client money protection schemes on their website and on third party websites (on which agents are listed). 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.
No procedure set.
