Absolutely awful. From start to finish my experience with Horizon has been nothing short of dreadful. Originally I was lied to over the phone, being told that I could have a different payment arrangement because one of my due dates was Christmas Eve (seriously, who charges over £1000 on Christmas Eve?) and subsequently being harassed about this payment. I was then accused of making it all up, and was treated incredibly rudely over the phone, and on email (One time they put the phone down on me!). Moreover, there was a rat infestation on the day I moved into the property due to the excessive rubbish left by the previous tenants. I was then told that we caused the rats and it was our rubbish and that the inventory was signed (by someone who didn't ever live in the property as I replaced her as a tenant). On multiple occasions my emails have been ignored, maintenance requests unanswered, and in the fortunate scenario that maintenance come to the property, they do half the job and leave saying "I'll be back on Monday" only to never return. They removed the doors off of a leaky shower and never came back, and we were then accused of having broken the shower (why?). I forgot the Wifi router in the property and the keys were handed back. Horizon were the only people with access to the property; 3 emails, 2 phone calls, and 3 visits to their office later they finally went to the property to retrieve the router and now claim that it isn't there. They have stolen the Wifi router from me. Nobody else had access to the property. If there is any piece of advice that you can take from this review is DO NOT, and I repeat, DO NOT GO WITH HORIZON.

4 Nov 2021Had such a similar experience with horizon, the customer service is awful, maintenance are very slow and inadequate when dealing with damages. Wish I had heard about this prior, won’t be going back to them.

DO NOT RENT WITH HORIZON UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES. As Cardiff University students, we rented a property in Cathays during the 2425 academic year. We felt pressured to sign a contract a property in October 2023, and we feel that Horizon did not give us sufficient time to read through the ... Read Full Review

If I could give 0 stars I would! Me and My girlfriend rented a one bedroom apartment with horizon for 3 years. And in short it was the worse 3 years of our lives. Us as tennets we never caused any issues and rent was always paid on time if not early. But after investigating it is clear that ... Read Full Review

This is a frank an honest opinion of what it is like to deal with Horizon. Horizon glued threats of legal action to young female tenant's door simply for asking to be treated fairly. Also denied her a contract for months. Best to avoid ... Read Full Review

Covid reveals the character of a landlord... Despite owning millions in property assets, Horizon are lumping their tenants with huge energy bills for the large properties they have left empty.

I absolutely advice you against using this agency. If I could I'd give them 0 stars ! They took us on a house viewing and showed us a few different houses. We kind of liked one but weren't quite sure as we've already seen some other places as well. They told us as long as you pay ... Read Full Review

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.
