The worst thing they did was allowed a workman into my flat while I was away without telling me. He then stole some of my stuff. They are refusing to co-operate with helping me get my stuff back and have just sent an email saying sorry. Thats on top of them being extremely unhelpful through the tenancy when it came to issues with the gas metre. Terrible communication. Now they are trying to keep part of my deposit despite breaking the law by allowing someone in.

Worst experience so far as a tenant with a lettings agent. Rude, sarcastic employees. Communication is shocking, we seem to be doing their admin for the property which is taking a lot of time out of our actual jobs. If you are tenants, avoid miles and barr at all... Read Full Review

Excellent service from all of the staff at Miles & Barr Ramsgate who were originally just assisting me with finding a new home. At the last moment I changed to them also for selling my property and within days it had sold. A massive thank you to James, Giuseppe, Jack, Rebecca, Charlotte,... Read Full Review

I would like to leave a review for a member of staff. This person has gone out of their way to help me even though I know that they are innundated with other people. She always responds to my emails and I think that people like this are a 'godsend'. Thank you Annie... Read Full Review

Cannot flaw the service provided. Given the difficult situation and challenges presented by Covid 19. It is a credit to all at the Ramsgate branch that the sale went as well as it did. From the free probate valuation to the completion of the sale of the property we were kept informed as to the... Read Full Review

Really bad discriminatory estate agent. They have let me down every time I have wanted to buy a Georgian property in Spenser square in Ramsgate during the last 5 years. When will they learn that as a female cash buyer they simply will not show me the property I want to buy but every time pretend to ... Read Full Review

I used Miles & Barr lettings to secure my rental property, they were really good at keeping in contact with me about new and upcoming properties until I found the right property for myself.

My husband and I have used Miles and Barr Ramsgate a number of times and been happy with the service. They work at weekends - which is something not all Thanet estate agents do - and that is one of the reasons why we've used them in the past. We had experienced some issues with the sales...

I have received overall a terrible service from Miles and Barr Ramsgate. Stuart Barr himself did not reply to my many emails to him making valid complaints and then when I eventually get someone to take me seriously and I think I'm getting somewhere speaking to Karen Hirst, Stuart only then replies ...

Unethical. Unprofessional. Dishonest. We had a 150 mile round trip to view a property which the agent showing us around then claimed to know nothing about. He told us a patch of fenced off land at the bottom of the garden was untitled when five minutes research online showed it belonged to the... Read Full Review

We were on the market with Miles and Barr for four months yet only had four viewings in that time. No contact with them week to week and no feedback as to why they didn't think we were getting any interest. Literally weeks would go by with us hearing nothing from them. There are three other...

Not sure if it's the landlord or the agent but they hid problems with the property until I found them after moving in, they are cheerful but dismissive and generally seem a bit la-de-da not bothered. There was a rat in my property - no one came to kill it. I had to do it myself. The plumbing... Read Full Review
They could actually care, Im not sure how they rest at night knowing they home people with rats and mould on the walls.

We tried to sell our property through Miles and Barr last year. Huge waste of time. The person we were dealing with never contacted us to let us know what was happening, and never gave us feedback from our viewings. Things were very slow for months, and they never suggested we lower our asking... Read Full Review

In our opinion until all estate agents are licenced this agent is the guage to go by. All the staff provided a friendly, efficient and excellent service. We were kept informed of all market movements and not once pressurised into dropping our price for a quick sale.... 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.
No procedure set.
