Worst agency ever .
This is the worst letting business for any landlords as they do not respect the landlords enquiries. Stolen items, and yet nothing is done about it. Tenants take deposit with half the furniture without even letting us know and yet proceeds to give the deposit back. Disgraceful!
Rude Customer service
They have let me son and daughter in law down big time rented them a bad property whilst pregnant with twins and the arrival of twins. now refusing to refund deposit
Never pickup the phone or call me back or reply to me 👎 …
I called to view a flat to rent and the person on the phone put me on a waiting list because the property wasn't accessible yet. Later in the day I get a text from them confirming my viewing was booked for the next hour! They gave me one hour notice for a viewing! I managed to get there on time and no one showed up. I called their office and a guy on the phone told me that the property wasn't accessible. I asked then why they booked me in and he said that he also sent me a voicemail to tell me that the viewing was canceled. I had my phone next to me on my desk at work (yes, I was working and I had to leave early, which means I lost money because of them) fully available, I would have heard it ring and he wouldn't have had a chance to leave a voicemail. In fact, my voicemail was empty. Mistakes happen, lies don't. I would have appreciated if they admitted I was booked by mistake. Lying to customers and wasting their time and money. I've dealt with many unprofessional estate agents, but this goes to the top of my list.
Trying to deal with these agents is impossible. I’m a landlord at a flat on the ground floor below a flat they are agents too. They have had a major leak in the flat they are agents too and basically told me they are getting a humidifier . What a joke. My tenant says the ceiling is about to collapse as in the pics attached and Julie at John Shepherd tells me the issue is fixed. No urgency what so ever on behalf of their tenants . The plumber they used used 3 different explanations for the leak and none of them are accurate. If this is how they respond in emergency’s they are not proper agents and show absolute no duty of care to their tenants and to the other people they are affecting .
Called to ask about a house on Bull Street which had advertised three bedrooms of which one was a double. I said we were interested on behalf of another party mainly because of its location. I asked for the size of the other two rooms in order to see if a double bed could be fitted in it, but was immediately told that there were interested parties and a viewing could be offered as room measuring was not one of the things they did! I find that entirely unhelpful. There is no plan of the house either. Why would I want to waste my time and theirs to view a property - simply to see if a room was big enough?
The worst agency ever. They have posted it and straight away I was calling regarding the property and the lady who managed it she was not available the whole day. Next day I called in the morning and she told me she already has 6 views and it is fully booked. How it is this possible? And the attitude is horrendous!!!! Definitely not ever rent or buy a house through them and I will make sure all my friends and family will know about them. L.E: after reply If your check the logs you can see that I have called more than few times since yesterday morning and all the time she was unavailable and no one could get through the lady. Please listen to the recordings. I don’t need excuses for bad services. It is a shame what is happening and is true, bad employees can mess up a company’a reputation.
