Crestons, 13 Caledonian Road, London
Would you use this agent again? No

This is a copy of the email I just sent my landlord warning him about these crooks at Crestons!! N be careful with these guys - the manager came to my home last week and PUNCHED me!!!

"I agreed the move-in date and the rental price with your agent which you'll see below: (excerpts from emails)

Me: "I cannot send a deposit then wait a few days only to find out the landlord has found someone who is willing to pay more, as then even if I get it back I won't have time to sort another flat in

Jacksons Estate Agents, 372-374 Garratt Lane, London
Would you use this agent again? No

I wish I had found this site sooner. This is fantastic. I have so many positive things to say about agencies I have used previously and its great that there is forum to give propective tenants an idea about what they are in for because before you blink you're locked into a tenacy that can make your life a living misery. On the positive side tomorrow is my last day of tenancy and what will hopefully be the last day of an 10 month nightmare. Jackson's are an absolutely appaling agency if you are a

Murray & Currie, 60 Queen Street, Edinburgh
Would you use this agent again? No

Worst 'letting agency ' I had to deal with, I agree with all the reviews I read in here.
Following my Odyssey.

The first room

A guy moved from this room and was try to subletting it for his last month of contract to not loose money, so I agreed to take it over and we went together to the agency to explain this change of tenancy during the previous tenant's contract and making my first payment with them.
They explained me that I could have stayed in that house just for the aforementioned

Martin & Co, 30 Hospital Street, Crewe
Would you use this agent again? No

THE WORST customer service I have ever received!

During our time renting with Martin and Co we dealt with Saul, who from the word go was utterly terrible at his job and treating customers.

To start, he rushed us into paying a deposit on the property we viewed and then convinced my girlfriend (who did the initial signing for the property) that we had to take out their contents insurance.

It was not until I called Saul and asked him about this and told him I already had contents insuran

Review by Tenants on 29th October 2014
Accommodate Edinburgh, 36 Bruntsfield Place, Edinburgh
Would you use this agent again? No

I would like to warn all tenants ¢â‚¬â€œ and especially landlords - to beware with regards to the security of deposits if you are unlucky enough to have any involvement with Accommodate Edinburgh - as I have recently been the victim of an attempt to steal the entirety of my deposit by this appallingly dishonest agency.

Unfortunately I was a tenant for some time with this company until I could no longer stand their lack of professionalism, unhelpful attitude and outright obnoxiousness

Review by Mrs on 31st October 2014
Wallakers, 69 Victoria Road, Surbiton
Would you use this agent again? No

We rented a property through Wallakers for about 18 months. We loved the property, but the service from Wallakers was very poor during our tenancy term. During this time we had several issues with the property. All the issues we experienced were raised with them via a telephone calls or emails. The vast majority of these were ignored and nothing was fixed. This included the oven which remained broken for 9 months (and still hadn't been fixed when we moved out).

We also visited the office

Antony Roberts Estate Agents, 308 Sandycombe Road, Richmond
Would you use this agent again? No

During our 2 year tenancy, many maintenance issues were ignored, including a faulty door which prevented us accessing our second toilet for around 10 months. When the door first broke, my elderly mother was locked inside the tiny, windowless room for several hours. Apparently, even this did not warrant prompt repair. Our emails were frequently ignored.

The building had structural issues which resulted in water running down our bedroom wall. The mould that developed was so bad that we had to

Outlook Property, St. Johns House, 2 Romford Rd, London
Would you use this agent again? No

We got in to the property 2 years ago. We started with looking at the property before we rent it. Agent name Sukhi Jabble deal with us. We talk over the phone and he want us to look at the property on our own. He gave us previous (current at that time) tenant's mobile number and want us to call her to view the property. Anyway we were able to look at the property. They put £1000 on the web site but after we want it its change to £1025. We took it anyway. He asked to come to the office and did

Andrew Cowen Estate Agents, 1 Harcourt Place, Scarborough
Would you use this agent again? No

Andrew Cowan agents do not allow you to make one of their properties your 'home'...
It will always be a house you rent. You are not allowed to relax, I am actually getting to the point of panic everytime the buzzer rings or if I receive a letter from them. It's never ending harassment on the corridor by their rude and abusive staff member or by the office telling us we have to have time off work while they inspect the property. you are constantly reminded by notes constantly pushed under your d
