AVOID AT ALL COSTS. Horrific experience with this company. Landlords and tenants AVOID at all costs. The Google reviews are false, check other review sites for a more accurate review of this terrible company. Nicholas Henderson, Lily Porter and Annette Cummings are useless and do not escalate complaints. There have been ridiculous fees charged, charged twice for basic things like itinerary and gas and electrical certificates. Chose not to renew agreement with FJL and they then withheld rent without any notification. This company is an unethical, unprofessional, money grabbing cabal of morons. A year with them and they've not got anything right. Please avoid at all costs. The people mentioned are beyond useless. Now dealing with area director - equally useless as the response was straight off of ChatGPT. Escalated to higher, awaiting another response all the while experiencing unnecessary financial hardships because of their practices and incompetence. This company is a perfect example of why the UK lettings industry needs to be heavily regulated. It's a bunch of shiny suit idiots mad reading as property experts. They're not, they're uneducated snake oil salesmen.
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.

Property Management Service below standard contract level. I have been a loyal provider of a property for the letting business of f.j.l. since 2014 so I know how the PM service has deteriorated over a long period. The communication is either automated so of limited relevance to the true situation... Read Full Review

AVOID AT ALL COSTS One agent in particular, Neelay Jivan, has sub-standard professional behaviour - much to the detriment of this branch and business as a whole. The agency knowingly misrepresented a property by including a storage space in the property description and floor plan whilst it... Read Full Review

The agents have lied multiple times throughout the buying process. Without knowing the facts themselves, they will tell you what you want to here just to make the sale, and base most of their actions on assumptions. They also falsely sold a property to us with outdoor storage, which it turns out... Read Full Review

Poor communication, lack of handover- worked with 4 people in the course of 6 months, disorganized but most importantly they provided inaccurate material information. While in the end, we completed and I bought the flat, the whole experience was extremely disappointing. As a whole, there is a... Read Full Review

I can't fault Jamal's efforts at all, but sadly, in the space of a year, other unknowns, albeit arrogant have appeared on the scene and said they are looking after the property. After parting with £1750 of my money in deposit (£500 was a 'holding fee' - unless that's just them 'holding' my ... Read Full Review

I've got a flat managed by FJL for 10 years. However, their services have significantly deteriated since they centralised the customers service about 2 years ago. I've therefore decided to change to another management agency recently. FJL has retained my deposits and also asked me to pay over 3... Read Full Review

Charlotte was excellent and very professional in all my dealings with her. She was my main contact. Jamal is her boss and was in contact with the landlord. Apart from changing the terms of the tenancy substantially with no warning one day before signing, Jamal is the kind of cocky, gobby estate... Read Full Review
Given fair warning about substantial change of tenancy terms Use a cleaning firm which is fit for purpose.

In fact I have not had any time when my flat has not been let out during that period, which is not bad going, in my opinion. As a professional in the city I do not want... Read Full Review
