Avoid like the coronavirus The worst letting company in Cardiff bar none. Unprofessional, rude, utterly awful in every aspect of customer service. Without naming names, let's just say that since this company has been taken over by another company, standards have clearly dropped through the 1st floor ceiling, through the ground floor and are nestling horribly on the waste pipes in the cellar. I've used MJ on a few occasions for property let's in the past 10 years and to see what they have become is disappointing given they're a local company. I have a friend who has rented from these cowboys (I say cowboys, it's disrespectful to cowboys) for the past 6 years and he has mentioned the numerous issues he's getting with them over the past 18 months. I'm sure many other tenants will relate to this and the following. MJ have a cheeky little system where they take your call, note it down on their system (Fix Flow) and tell you someone will be in touch. 2 days later, you'll not receive anything back so you'll call them. You'll discover on this 2nd call that there is no recording of your issue on their wonderful Fix Flow system, so they'll re register your issue and promise another call back. 2 days later, nothing. So you'll call again. On this occasion, they may say they've contacted the landlord and awaiting a reply - there's nothing they can do until the landlord gets back. 2 days later still nothing. You call, they'll give you the same old jargon. Now this is as far as I'm concerned a fob off system until the tenant just goes away. I've had numerous unacceptable issues in the past year which I won't go in to detail (for the moment at least). On each occasion I've gone down the same path of being fobbed off left right and centre until I eventually pay to fix the problem myself out of my own pocket. I could write a book on the problems I've encountered with this company. They need fixing from the top, down. Changes need to be implemented quick or they won't be around too much longer. You can't run a sustainable company on terrible service. This company will have a rude awaking very soon, I have no doubt about it. Sort it MJ. You're fooling no one.

Landlords and Tenants beware!! This company is a money grabbing, ruthless, inhumane, ignorant and quite frankly a bunch of cowboys. They’ll tell you everything you want to hear before you move in. Once the contract is signed their attitudes change and they literally... Read Full Review

My tenancy with Moginie James has been constant stress, lies and let downs. Unfortunately they are an agency who will fob you off with lies at every point until you stand up to them. I rent a flat from MJ who advertised as water included. This was on the advert, confirmed by the agent showing the... Read Full Review
