Terrible agency! I would really not recommend arranging a viewing to rent a property with them! The agent Daniel didn't even show up at the agreed visit time despite us having called twice the very same day to confirm. The visit got confirmed by his colleagues but we could never speak to him directly. What a waste of our time! They never took the time to call us back to explain what happened. A complete lack of professionalism

18 Oct 2017Dear Sylvie, Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback regarding your experience with Daniel and our company. We are very sorry to hear about your disappointing encounter. We sincerely apologise for any inconvenience that may have been caused as a result. Any and all customer feedback is treated very seriously and as such we have carried out a thorough investigation of this matter. The findings reflect that Daniel had not confirmed the potential viewing with yourself due to access restrictions through the current tenant and had communicated this to you. Our systems and call recordings indicate that the viewing had not been confirmed. Daniel advised that upon authorization from the current tenant your appointment would be confirmed and agreed. Daniel was dismissed by our organisation on the 19th of September and no longer works with us which would explain why he did not return your calls or provide an apology. As a strict company policy, we are unable to enter any of our properties that are occupied and tenanted until consent has been provided by the occupants. Hence the reason as to why Daniel could not confirm the viewing until consent had been provided by the current tenants. Again, we profusely apologise for any resulting inconvenience that may have been experienced due this matter. If you would like any further information regarding the matter or wish to discuss this further, please do not hesitate to contact me.

18 Oct 2017Hi, Thanks for taking the time to reply. I don't want to start an endless discussion here. Just to say that it is very interesting that your throrough investigation has shown that the viewing hadn't been confirmed when I called 3 times the day of the viewing to check, and even though I wasn't able to speak to Daniel directly, one female colleague was able to confirm that the viewing was planned in the system and gave me the postcode for me to go to the viewing. I would never have travelled to the viewing appointment had it not been confirmed. When I phoned up the day after Daniel's no show, the male collaborator I had on the phone also said the viewing was there in the system and that it was weird so he would investigate. Anyway. The agent doesn't work with you any more so I guess there is no point continuing this thread. This was just very bad customer service.

In my dealings with Riley Marshall I've had issues when moving in, swapping tenants and moving out and all issues are with the contract. They will ask for a fee to change a name in the contract yet you are not able to read the contract beforehand. Further when they made a mistake with the ... Read Full Review

Agent lied throughout viewing and closing of deal. No clean organised for move in and the way they advised us of the landlord changing their mind about renewal was embarrassing - a 2 line email saying our last day is 6 weeks from now. No explanation at all. They don't care, they take your money and ... Read Full Review

Absolute scam. Original agent that I met with (Sean) was lovely, upfront about costs and relatable. We are students and he was younger in age which made me feel more comfortable. A couple weeks later, after we had paid the holding fee, we started to be dealt with by someone new. It turns out that ... Read Full Review
Fees are inexplicable. Maybe if they didn't go through a third party company to process their guarantor forms, you wouldn't have to fork out £120 for every person that needs to be processed. We have to pay £600 on processing fees alone.

Have a more professional agent who manages property on a real time basis.
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.
Should you encounter any problems with the services provided by Riley Marshall which the negotiator is unable to resolve, please write to our office manager at manager@rileymarshall.co.uk in the first instance. The complaint will be acknowledged within two working days of receipt and Riley Marshall will take actions to address the problem. A formal response will be sent back to you within 5 working days. If this does not resolve your issue then you can refer the case to directors@rileymarshall.co.uk. We are part of The Property Ombudsman (TPO) scheme, a government approved Ombudsman that specialises in the property market. If you do not feel that we have been able to resolve your problems even after the above processes are followed then you can request a letter that entitles you to refer the matter to TPO within six months for review. For the avoidance of doubt, The Property Ombudsman will only review complaints made by consumers and not agencies. More information is available here http://www.tpos.co.uk/index.htm However we would like to reassure you that we take great pride in our customer service and so we will endeavour to deal with any problems as quickly as possible. We would expect to be able to resolve your issues quickly and at the first stage of this process.
