It took 10 days from when I placed my property with Fulfords for them to upload the details onto their own and other websites. After persistent chasing I was told this was due to computer 'uploading problems' and that it was only with my property, not with others. They do not use newspaper advertising so I lost the only way of promoting the property other than word of mouth. They did then find me tenants, but the tenants backed out before references had been taken up. The property had been taken off the websites (did not appear as let agreed) as soon as I accepted the tenants, despite the fact that they had not by then be confirmed as suitable. It then took a further 10 days to get the details up onto the web again - same computer problems apparently. Had they not learnt from the first time? To ad insult to injury it then appeared with the rental amount increased by £5, but chaged from per month to per quarter! What a bargain for someone! While one mistake could have been finger problems, surely not two at the same time? Come on. At that stage, having suffered considerable financial loss by not getting anywhere near finding tenants for a month, I withdrew the property from them.


What agent could do to change your mind?

Could have kept more on top of the problem - it appeared to go for several days at the beginning before I allerted them to the problem. Then keeping me informed of progress more.

Do not ever use this company! It's been nearly 2 months since we've left the property and still haven't received our deposit back. We have been lied to constantly saying it has been returned and to wait for it to go in the bank. Shockingly it hasn't. Had the usual lie again today and the next step... Read Full Review

We rented a house from Fulfords and will never touch them again with a barge pole. The fees were massive, the details of fees kept changing so that we had to make sure everything was confirmed in writing by email. We needed things fixing in the property and it took 5 months for any response,... Read Full Review

Wow the comments below do some what surprise me! I have been a tenant with Fulfords for 3 years and have made two moves with the company and have had no problems. My deposit was returned to me within 4 days and I then handed it back ready for the next let. I can only speak of the team now and they... Read Full Review

This company are truly awful. I'm pretty sure that the deposits are not backed and hence they are trading fraudulently. Everyone I know without exception who have used this branch have never received there deposits back. There is always some excuse or phantom reason that they will... Read Full Review
