Worst letting agents ever. Flat not very clean on entry. No heating for weeks in Jan. No hot water for months. Gave out personal details to third party and were in violation of data protection. Billed me for cleaning flat after I moved out when I left it cleaner than when I moved in.Thoroughly bad lot.

I put a critical review on their Facebook page and they had the audacity to hide it from the public - at least on here they can't hide them. I wonder how many reviews have been written on Facebook that they have not liked and decided to hide from the public? Says it all about the letting agent... Read Full Review

Do not use Contempo... whether a tenant or a landlord. We rented a property from them... never again. We were over a month without a working cooker, we waited over a month for them to fix a toilet seat and we didn't have light in our living room for over a month (in fact it was still not fixed...

AVOID! AVOID! They will utilise every sneaky, lying arsenal to steal your money. From refusing to come and carry out a check out in your presence to sending out bogus, over-inflated cleaning charges 6 weeks later. Oh and they will, to get you too sign, lie that someone else is coming to view soon ... Read Full Review

I would advise against renting via contempo, throughout our tenancy we had a number of issues arise and Contempo would rarely resolve them sufficiently. A few months after moving in we began receiving emails stating that our rent was overdue, even though we could see that it was in fact paid,... Read Full Review

Overall my experience of the company was not great to say the least. In one occassion a repair was made promptly, however in all other cases they were not made or made ineffectively. In particular the communal area had no lighitng (the lighting was controlled within the flats, half of which were... Read Full Review

Agents were extremely unresponsive, continual issues with heating resulted in dampness and mildew. Judith eventually agreed in March after 3 months of complaints that the faulty heaters would be replaced that week but this never happened and the flat was vacated in June with the upgrade still not...

Very bad experience with this agency. When we first moved into the flat it had not been cleaned properly at all , in particular the bathroom was disgusting. The check in report even stated that the it was not clean. When moving the furniture in the bedroom we found a large amount of mould, it smelt ... Read Full Review

This was my first and final dealings with Contempo Lettings. I had initially enquired into a property for rent by telephone where I was told that I was not suitable for the property due to being a student. I am well aware that certain properties are not suitable for students but this is not always... Read Full Review
The customer service needs worked on greatly. All that I was looking for was an apology for wasting my time and improvements made on the advertisement. There was no remorse shown for the error by Contempo Lettings but instead a level of rudeness.

I have a bad experience. I was a tenant that rented a flat from contempo lettings, everything was smooth and far at the begining and staff are very friendly until me and my flatmate agree to end the tenancy. 1 of the agent from contempo lettings (Aberdeen's Brach - I dont know what's her name)...

They change their attitude quickly once we end the tenancy, and everything went so unprofessional after that, also tend to charge us with a lot if things.

I would be pleased to recommend Contempo Lettings of Aberdeen to any Landlord.

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.
