Not really. They lie too much. In general disorganised. No hot water or cold repairs slow no heater . They ask for fictional bills to pay them. Tent to turn bought property into a living building site and hammer your hearing with excruciating noise. Service below standards. Better avoid. Dishonest individuals work there fabcricate or back date legal documents. Proven by court recordings court orders. Sad really but that is reality of landlord with too much money.

Lack of communication, organisations and professionalism. Enquiring about a property might turn in a very bad experience. They tell you to wait 24 working hours(3 working days) to be contacted but nobody does so. If you try to follow up over the phone they keep repeating the same, not sure why ... Read Full Review

Absolutely shocking. Would give them zero if I could. On the face of it the properties can look nice but that's where it ends. Do not expect any customer service at all (in fact it's borderline disdain that Akelius show for tenants and they are a 'black hole' for effort if ... Read Full Review

I would give zero stars if I could. Not only have they generally been slow and unresponsive in dealing with issues, but they've now partnered with JustPark, meaning that anybody can rent a spot in our private car park. We were already having trouble with security, and now they're ... Read Full Review

Absolutely terrible after service, I have been trying to get my deposit back but they don't even bother replying your emails. When you try and call, you can never get the person you want on the phone and the person you speak to has been programmed to simply say "I cant help, you have to ... Read Full Review

Akelius is one of the worst agencies you can work with. They tried to trick us in many ways but the worst was when they left us to leave in a flat that was losing water from everywhere, including the lights on the roof. Damaging my health and furniture. We had to move at some point of the ... Read Full Review

DO NOT RENT FROM THESE PEOPLE. I ALMOST LOST MY LIFE Since renting from Akelious I have lost sleep, lost money, lost weight, lost hair, health has been severely affected.

A simple phone call to let me know the viewing would no longer go ahead would have been appreciated. Would not ... Read Full Review

I’ve been letting a flat from Akelius for over a year. They wanted to negotiate up the rent on the price that was listed before I moved in originally which I feel is poor form as if you are looking for more rent, advertise at the required price as I offered asking price. The day I moved ... Read Full Review

If you see âAKELIUSâ in any way associated with your prospective tenancy agreement RUN AWAY! This company is a SHAM!

If I could give zero stars I would. Rented from them for 1 year and had a horrible experience at every stage.

We rented an Akelius property for nearly three years and from start to end they were awful. To begin with they had changed the locks on the property and our flat after we had picked up they keys but before we had moved in. We had to wait around for 4 hours before someone could come round and let us ... Read Full Review

Fees are average and over a long let period equate to next to nothing once calculated as a monthly cost.

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.

Most complaints can be dealt with by our front line teams e.g. your Property Manager or your Lettings Negotiator. They will do their best to resolve the matter quickly, to your satisfaction. If you think your complaint has not been fully resolved then you should write to our Customer Relations department at the address below or email us using the following address: customerrelations@akelius.co.uk
