To begin with, we had no issues. We put our offer forward for renting a house and we got accepted. The referencing process was lengthy but everything came back clean. Then, one week before moving in, and just before receiving the contract to sign, the landlord decided to pull our offer. We thought that they changed their mind about renting out the house, but they refused to give any reason. The agency offered to help us find a replacement, but I had to do most of the chasing and barely got one set of houses. Silence afterwards. A couple of days later, we found out the house is reposted with CJ Hole. This made no sense. We are two guys trying to rent a house so we can continue our work in Bristol. I am not a British citizen, but I've been in the UK for the past 6 years. The landlord decided not to go with us without wanting to give any reason. That's when we realised they are either sexist, racist or homophobic. We've challenged the agency about it and they are still refusing to ask the landlord for a reason. They said these problems are very important for them but they continue to support the landlord by reposting their house. What about our expenses for prolonging our stay away from Bristol and the time lost in re-starting the search for a different house? How is this fair?
