Hi Temi, Thank you very much for taking the time to review and I'm very sorry to hear that this has been your experience. Unfortunately the brief details given don't match any of our recent tenancies, so if you would like to contact me with some more information on [email protected] i can certainly look into your specific case. In general terms, check out inventories are always carried out shortly after the last date of your tenancy. After that, the check out report is sent ...

Hi Judith, Myself and my flatmate made our issues extremely clear (living without water for over a fortnight is not something we would keep quiet about). Grant was our first point of contact hence why all of our issues went through him. Additionally, you failed to inform us when the property was advertised - which was a (small) request that we made specifically to you and despite saying that you would do this - you did not, so unfortunately I am doubtful that it would have made much of differ ...

Hi Girls, Many thanks for taking the time to post your review. I am sorry to hear that you had a bad experience. I'm sure we explained at the time that we are not allowed to spend for this property without the landlord's written permission which can (and did) lead to delays, which we find just as frustrating as you... believe me I hate to read poor reviews of my business. With regards to the deposit - because we use a tenant deposit scheme, all claims for tenant funds are sent to an independ ...

What agent could do to change your mind?
The customer service needs worked on greatly. All that I was looking for was an apology for wasting my time and improvements made on the advertisement. There was no remorse shown for the error by Contempo Lettings but instead a level of rudeness.

The portal that I had initially found the advert on was LettingWeb and the portal that the member of staff had mentioned was Citylets so there should have been no problems with this. Either way, neither of the sites stated this information and it is an important detail to be mentioned. It has been an error on Contempo Lettings part that could have been put right with a simple apology and correction of the advert, which is all I was looking for. Not to be told that I was, in effect, looking at th ...

All we want is our deposit back which was agreed - we've already been deducted ‚£800 and we're happy with the deductions (although potentially heavy-handed) in order to receive the ‚£1000 owed.

Dear J, Thank you for your comments and I understand you are not very happy after your ordeal with the friend you found on Roombuddies when things did not work out. I believe you did have heating throughout your stay at the property, although I do understand the fact it took so long to get the new gas fire installed was disappointing and you can understand that the contractor involved did his last job for us in the property. With regards to your deposit as you never gave notice on the flat ...
