referring to the Colchester branch My experience with martin and co was good up to a point, but the realization of there predatory business tactics highlights it as a company to avoid. when my contract with them ended they tried to bully me into a 12 month upfront contract, saying i was legally tied to this contract, sadly for them i know contract law and explained how they didn't know what they was talking about. That then moved on to them being petty for the rest of the time ive had to deal with them, they tried to charge me for the following: a used toilet brush that was there when i moved in?? a broken bath panel that was broken already when i moved in. (it was advertised with pictures of the bath panel broken at this point and they hadn't been to take pictures of my property due to covid) a lose toilet seat that was described as having a lose screw + £20 pound charge to them. ohh and the 120 cleaning fee, even though i had the carpets professionally cleaned and they had a painter in as i was moving out??? ohh and to top it of they sent my deposit as cheque. real shame as I'm planing to invest in a large sum of buy to lets in the future and was looking forward with working with them, but i do not want my finances and business to be connected to theses predatory business tactics.
