Nightmare I have had electric issues x mould damage to my belongings , abuse from drug addict neighbours ( i was told it was a safe , quiet flat . I have met with the MP about these issues , crime , disrepair , and then Lamont send letters Lying about it being repaired! I have had anxiety issues and panic attacks living here . I have never ( in 15 years of renting ) had this many issues . Lamonte also had the cheeck to lie to a deaf tennant, and say they manager is two people , Joe Firth and Joe Lamont, so he used to say that the other Joe said that, or he would speak to Joe lamont about the issues . The behaviour when you raise an issue is frustrating ,because they dont care . The police are here everyday , and its privately owened flats ,not council flats . There are knownncriminals and child sex offenders livimg above and under me . Drugs get sold from this building , from the empty flats and prostitutes operate here too. Some of the residents on benefits , get paid by Joe firth to empty the flats, that have been abandoned due to not paying rent . The police are at wits end as is the MP mr Robbie Moore , who they lie in writing about the issues being dealt with . When i asked Joe firth if it was safe , he said he was unawear of any issues. And when he handed me my keys , he said , " if you have issues with your neoghbours , you need to ring the police." I said " it shouldn't be an issue , i get on with my neighbours , as my las one of 5 years is now one of my closest friends " and he smirked . When i got here , it was filthy, palce had not been cleaned after the prevouse tennants had left , so i cleaned ,after i took pictures . The next day there was a fight ( with crow bars ) between about 5 guys under my window. The electricity kept shorting , so i called Joe , who said that it must me me not paying my bill !!! When i went to the electricity cubourd , the box had melted and set my neighbours electricity box on fire , i had jo power on a feb night ! I had called the national power grid to get it sorted , and the fire dep said they were reporting lamont. There are about 80 people in this building , and there were numerous floors with the same fault. Then the mould, ì went away for hospital appointments, 6 days it took, for my wardobe , and contents , dresser and contents and my under side if my bed to get destroyed my mould . I had to buy all new things . And apart from that the property is not inulated or draft proof. The window ledges are covered in mould from the original ledge underneath, where wind gets through, thw front door i have has no glass as a drugged up neighbour got violent after i asked her to turn her musoc down at 4 am ( i had neurological exam at 8am ) so this winter my electricity bill is huge and i got flu twice ths year . And this madw me laugh more than it should, new couple arrived yesterday, the resident drug dealer ,wife beater and all round bad egg, decided to hover and pester them while they moved thier things in , they made it 20 hours in the flat . It was a disaster inside , £187 electricity debt, and the dealers are next to them and uder them and so is the sex offender who sceams racist and sextist profanities everyday and bangs his windows and doors all day , till the cops come . They moved back to thier prevouse homes , and i wish i had that option when i moved . I had to move form my 2 bed house in skipton, after i got diagnosed with Eds and had nerve damage from surgery . I moved here because joe said it was safe. And i thought i could get back on my feet here . I am now on anti anxiety meds , hardly sleep or eat and hear chaos around me IN PRIVATE RENTED FLATS !! I think that is disgusting that people like this can get away with lying tenants . Non Of the landlords actuall live in the country, another rhis i was not told , so its a pass the buck with lamont ....... i hope that one day they get what they deserve

I’m extremely disappointed with the way I was treated by this agency. I enquired about viewing another property and was told I “wouldn’t be able to afford the rent,” even though the increase is only a bit more more than what I currently pay and I am fully aware of my own financial situation. I ... Read Full Review

Unacceptable service received as an overseas landlord whilst using Lamont and Co as a Letting Agent. Choosing Lamont and Co happens to be one of the worst and costliest choices we have ever made. Lack of communication over a 4 month period, and the small amount of communication received was ... Read Full Review

This company is a nightmare to deal with. Their lack of communication is astounding, they do not do what you pay them to do as managing agents, do not send you details when new tenants move in, do not make good any damage left by the previous tenants and take forever to respond to emails. I have ... Read Full Review
