They misplaced the keys we returned and now almost 2 weeks and still no check out inventory done. The owner has moved in and is living at the property... so any damage caused now will likely be blamed on us... no clue when/if my £2k deposit will be returned. No one ever calls you back. Would not recommend

I’ve lost count of the number of times I’ve had ‘George’ from Chancellors (Slough) leave me a voicemail, despite emailing them to ask them to stop! Arranged a viewing, they didn’t turn up, which is why I’m not interested in having anything to do with them. When I phoned them, no one seemed to know what was going on! My husband wasted his day off waiting around for them.

I really don't know what wrong is with this company. First nicely they contact you, and later they don't pick up the phone or reply for messages. They keeps flats to rent which are not available any more. Someone could tell me for what are you keep them then? I can understand mistake but is not first time when I caught a contact with your Agents and I'm getting ignored. It's not nice especially when you earn money for helping them. No recomend

Horrendous lettings agency. It's been over 5 weeks since I've moved out and my deposit hasn't been returned, despite many promises that it will. All the agency fees and where do they go? You get dismissed at every opportunity - even by managers. The start of my tenancy should have been a flashing red light with changing the moving date around and the lackluster approach. If I owed them money there is no way this would be dragged out. Do yourself a favour and AVOID AT ALL COSTS!

Reply from Chancellors Lightwater: Did you get your deposit back in the end?

This is the worst property management group i have ever seen. They mis-sold the agreement with tenant, by not disclosing the matter in full, and later cause a lot of trouble to tenant. I would suggest not to sign up property managed by Chancellors. Or if you signing up, please get all the clause clarified as they don't disclose all the terms properly. For my case they just mention tenant responsible for utilities & water in agreement as a standard clause. Never disclose a huge fixed amount of water charge applies to the property. As a responsible tenant, tried to setup water account at the beginning, however water company confirmed no account exist for that property and same informed to agent. Spent entire tenure (16 months) and nobody inform anything about water bill outstanding. 2 months after leaving the property, agent coming back with outstanding water bill part of landlord's maintenance fees, which need to be paid out. While enquiring they advised, it was not mentioned clearly to me, however this is outstanding water bill need to be cleared in time. I would have not signed the agreement at the first place if this was clearly mentioned to me at the beginning. So must say, stay away from this company.

Reply from Chancellors Lightwater: Hi Biswajit, thank you for getting in touch, we can see you have already raised this concern internally and we will be in touch in due course. Many thanks.

Worst ever experience as an estate agent. Property with them for more then 50 -60 days. Not even single viewing. Think twice before letting with EN5 team. Barnet Lettings 1 Exchange Buildings,High Street Barnet EN5 5SY

The worst possible agents I have ever had the misfortune to know. They refuse to organise any viewings to anyone other than a cash buyer ! Where do they expect you to live when your house is sold ? The rudest,most condescending,arrogant people in the world. Are chancellors trying to control the whole property market with their aggressive tactics?I would never market a property with them as they refuse to allow viewings.

Dreadful. Was very interested in viewing a property but they kept putting me off (couldn't make this day, didn't do weekends, no staff free etc. .etc). When I finally pinned down an appointment, they rang the morning of the viewing to say an offer had been accepted on the property. Funnily enough, I've been watching said property and it's still for sale (not STC - For Sale)!! This has now happened with another property but the estate agent in this case was more blunt. I was told they preferred viewers who had already sold their home or at least had a firm offer on it. When I persisted, she announced they'd had an offer on it anyway. You guessed it; it's still For Sale (not STC !!!). I do feel sorry for the vendors. What a shocking outfit.

The worst Estate Agents I have ever dealt with in 10 years. So unprofessional and no one seems to have the slightest clue. I am constantly chasing for updates and reports that are outstanding. I am confused as to what I am paying for. Would definitely not renew my contract.
