The initial search period is ok, if all smiles and done with little respect or efficiency. Once you sign, it's obvious these people have no idea how to run a business, much less treat people like decent human beings. Every time we would call or ...

What agent could do to change your mind?
They could have: - Given a flying fuck about the people with whom they're dealing - actually known something about the apartment they were showing - been flexible and courteous to the people paying them the past year when we both wanted to renew, and then wanting to be selective about the people they're parading through our rooms - If selectivity is not an option, a modicum of sensitivity to the fact that having any half-interested jackass looking for an apartment in London is suddenly permitted to go through our bedrooms without so much as an id check is not uncalled for; actually, it's absolutely necessary.

I have to say I had a similar experience with your staff. They sure are rude and I would question if any of your positive reviews aren't your staff members in disguise. Your staff also have a very creative way of putting things. I was also told 'I was out of touch with reality' and was spoken to as if I were an infant in day care. I would advise you to implement a strict customer service policy because from my experience and the experience of others on here I can see that your staff is really fr ...

Rhian, We have now looked into the matters raised. Firstly, I can assure you that we have never considered you a problem in anyway and furthermore we have not experienced a high staff turnover and do not employ temporary staff in the Property Management Department but have now moved to a system of Portfolio Managers which we hope will improve our service to you. 1. The clean on your property was being carried out by your landlady and it is now noted that you do not believe this was done. If ...
