Premier have looked after my property portfolio for years. They are both professional and proactive. I have found them to find tenants swiftly and deal with any issues along the way efficiently and courteously. I would fully endorse there services to any lanlords out there looking for an agent

DO NOT RENT WITH PREMIER LETTINGS. These guys are just the worst. They have serious issues in replying to emails, and when they do so they are often really unhelpful and don't really address the points raised. But especially they will do whatever they can to get money from your DEPOSIT. After ... Read Full Review

Premier is complicit in discrimination! This agency refuses to commit to fair lettings standards as they will not sign ACORN’s No DSS Discrimination Pledge. Discrimination against people on universal credit and on benefit in general is both illegal and deeply immoral, as it contributes to ... Read Full Review

So I got interested in one of the properties on the site Rightmove which is under Premier estate agents, I received an email very fast the next day (Tuesday not a bank holiday) telling me to call them with a number on it and I tried to call them but no one reply so I called again for 4 more times ...

Friendly, but issues with notice and deposit return I rented a property with Premier between mid 2020 to 2021. My experience has been decidedly mixed. I found the initial experience positive - reflecting the views of many other reviewers who gave high scores. Note that Premier requests reviews ... Read Full Review

This property letting agent is terrible. They are usually friendly when they want you as a customer but once in, your complaints fall on deaf ears and when you decide to move out, they will literally split your deposit in half regardless of how good a condition you leave the place.

In a 6-bed house, we had the worst wifi signal, which they never changed, even though we asked in several occasions. Whenever there was an available room and they had viewings, they never informed us. They didn’t do it during lockdown, either, with the risks that entails. One of the ... Read Full Review

If you are a landlord do not use them. Terrible experience. I have constantly had to chase them for the rental money to be transferred to our account and for the monthly landlord statement.

I have been with Premier as a Landlord for over 10 years. They are a family run concern, so there is a personal aspect to any dialogue, I have found them to be most friendly and helpful.

They are anything but premier. It is now November and after months of back and forth we are just getting some, and only some, of the astronomical deposit back.

We have been using Premier for over 10 years. I would highly recommend Premier as a landlord. They are a family run business who value their clients. They are more then just a letting agency. They can never do enough for you. Their rates are one of the best in Oxford and their service is ... Read Full Review
Very competitive fees but you get more for your money. They are only a phone call away. I'm always asking them for advice which they give free of charge.

Do not use these agents. They couldn't care less. They just grab your money and run. After we moved out, we were charged an astronomical fee to have the place cleaned throughout. We also told Premier about all the broken things and some of our deposit was deducted to pay for repairs. This ... Read Full Review
How can you charge fees for cleaning and not clean? How can you keep a deposit to fix broken items,a nd not fix them? How can you charge for admin and not do any admin? How can you charge to 'check' the house when it's part of the job of an agent and you're charging the landlord a fee? The fees were extortionate.

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.
Premier Complaints Procedure In the first instance, if you are unable to resolve the issue informally, you should write to the member of staff who dealt with you, or their manager, so that he or she has a chance to put things right. In your letter you should set out the details of your complaint, the consequences for you as a result, and the remedy you are seeking. You can expect your complaint to be acknowledged within 10 working days of receipt. You should get a response and an explanation within 20 working days. If you are unsure which member of Premier staff to write to, your complaint should be sent to the Manager, Mrs Nicola Hieatt at Premier, 207 Cowley Road, Oxford OX4 1XF. If you are not satisfied with the initial response to the complaint then you can write to the owners of the business, Mrs Jan Bartlett and Mr Charles Bartlett and ask for your complaint and the response to be reviewed. You can expect Mrs Bartlett or Mr Bartlett to acknowledge your request within 10 working days of receipt and a response within 20 working days. Premier Lettings’ aim is to resolve all matters as quickly as possible. However, inevitably some issues will be more complex and therefore may require longer to be fully investigated. Consequently timescales given for handling and responding to complaints are indicative. If a matter requires more detailed investigation, you will receive and interim response describing what is being done to deal with the matter, and when a full reply can be expected and from whom. If you are not happy with the outcome The Property Ombudsmen may be able to help. This is an independent dispute resolution service. For more information, visit www.tpos.co.uk
