I had a horrible experience - I called to enquire about a property. The agent proceeded to take my details saying he would now have to ask me some "intrusive questions". Upon finding out my partner was a stay at home parent he immediately dismissed me. He said i should continue looking on zoopla and someone will eventually rent to me but his agency cannot, as my partner "would never pass the background check". Yet I am looking to rent a property myself and I am employed and have savings! Pretty nasty experience
