do yourself a favour and look else where, ollie has been incredible rude and has been withholding information we are legally entitled to they will charge you if you report a maintenance issue if an appointment is booked and no fault is found or improper use on an appliance is found and you will be liable for the call out and repair. it’s just a bit ridiculous really, the property we were interested in was advertised as being furnished yet it didn’t come with a single piece of furniture and we had to write into the contract to have beds with mattress in our rooms then come time to move in which was super rushed btw, we realise they haven’t given us headboards and they string us along until they declare that it wasn’t explicitly stated in our contract therefore we won’t be getting headboards because the landlord refuses to supply them yet when we request a landlords name and address to verify this information ollie took it upon himself to deny us that right if you’re reading this ollie, know that i would like to see proof that our flat has smoke detectors because we will sue you if one cannot be found speak soon hun x also next time don’t threaten me ok?

Dear Ella, I am disappointed to learn that you have not been satisfied with the services provided by Credential. I have now managed to investigate this matter and I am surprised at your claims that correspondence has been rude and threatening. In fact all correspondence from yourself has been rude and the tone of your review is actually very threatening. Let me now comment on the points in your review: 1. It is standard practice in the property industry to hold tenants liable for any callouts or repairs should misuse be found or no fault be found. 2. The property you are residing in, was advertised as being furnished or unfurnished. You subsequently requested furniture which was in your pre-tenancy documentation which you signed. At no point was a request for headboards made. 3. We repeatedly advised you that as we manage the property, all correspondence in respect of your tenancy and the property should be addressed to ourselves. When you did not accept this, we advised you of the landlords correspondence address. 4. You have asked for the location of the smoke detectors in the property numerous times now since you have moved in. As per legal requirements, there are smoke alarms in your property and we have now advised you numerous times to refer to your inventory for the location of these smoke alarms. I trust this clarifies the issues you have brought up in your review. However if you would like to discuss this matter further then please do not hesitate to contact me. Regards Rizwan Osman Director

Do not waste your time letting with Credentials. They are rude, unprofessional and have a tendency to ignore e-mails when there is anything important that they need to address/fix within the property - despite it being a danger to the tenants' health. The service my housemates and I received was appalling, Ollie was consistently rude and dismissive. To speak of just one issue (among many I assure you), I lived with a serious mould issue in my room for over two months - with no helpful action on Credentials or Ollie's part. I have rented with a number of estate agents throughout the past years; yet I can say without a doubt that Credentials has been the worst.

My daughter and her friends have just finished letting with Credential in Tooting and the way they have been treated has been appalling. They have been exemplary professional tenants and the bullying and dismissive nature of their property manager Ollie upset the girls. Given the immaculate condition they left the property in and the mice the girls had to endure throughout the tenancy I was appalled by the retention of some of their deposit and Ollie's response to their complaint. Shocking!NegativeProfessionalism

Dear Mr Peak, I refer to your review. I am disappointed to learn that you were not satisfied with the service provided by Credential. I have now investigated this matter and can confirm that the property occupied by your daughter and her friends was not handed back in a suitable condition following the termination of their tenancy. I can further confirm that the documents we provided to your daughter contained factual evidence of the difference in condition from when the tenancy commenced. Unfortunately as managing agents it is part of our job to ensure a property is handed back to us in a suitable condition and if it is not then any issues will need to be rectified or deductions will need to be made from a deposit. We still have to continue to carry out our obligations to landlords in this respect and will not be threatened by tenants and bullied into changing our findings in return for receiving a bad review. Should tenants wish to dispute any deductions from a deposit then they are advised to file a dispute through the Deposit Protection Service where the deposit is held. This was all communicated to all tenants in our correspondence. Should you have any questions regarding this matter then please do not hesitate to contact me. Rizwan Osman Director

I received a shockingly rude and poor service when I left my property a few months ago - I had agreed with them a leave date months in advance which they then said couldn't be completed in a couple of weeks leading up to my exit date, and forced me to pay another month's rent as a result of their error, leaving me out of pocket as had to pay two rent payments in one month. They do have amazing properties and helpful landlords on their books, but in my opinion could have been much, much more helpful and considerate to me, who at this time had been a long serving tenant and customer of Credential. Really poor way to treat a customer

Absolutely awful customer service- so slow to respond to any issues. Sometimes takes weeks. Additionally, they take every opportunity to unfairly squeeze money out of you. Don't go with these guys, you'll regret it.

Dear Joe, I am sorry to hear you have experienced issues with our customer service. Having looked into this matter, I can see that you are currently a tenant in a property managed by ourselves. I note that you have not vacated the property yet so I am not sure what sums of money you are referring to in your review. Furthermore I have also investigated all maintenance requests for your property and there is currently no issues pending so perhaps you could contact me directly to discuss your review in more detail as we take feedback from our clients serious.

Was polite enough to call and say i was running 5 min late but once rescheduled nobody showed up or showed the same courtesy. I thought it would be in their best interest to get a customer ( from the reviews i read i guess i was saved from the process of dealing with such an unprofessional agency. Thanks !!

Do not go with credential - appalling customer service. They charged us on leaving to reclean a bathroom that had already been professionally cleaned and held us responsible for things out of our control. (After we had handed our keys back, a pair of socks blew into our garden from the neighbours line, and we were charged for their removal.) They use every tiny excuse to pull money out of you, and there is no cooperation. I am very disappointed with such a lack of care, and complete lack of kindness. You will regret your decision if you go with them.

Dear Katia, I have now investigated this matter and note that you were a tenant in a property managed by ourselves. The checkout inspection is based on fact and contained evidence that you had not left the property in the same condition as noted in the inventory when you moved in to the property. Furthermore I note that you did not dispute the amounts that had to deducted and were in agreement with ourselves that the property had not been cleaned to a professional standard. You had requested for the property to be professionally cleaned before you moved in and I have looked at your receipt which confirms you paid £40 for a professional cleaner upon moving out. This is not in line with industry prices for the cleaning of a three bedroom property and might explain why the professional cleaning was not of a professional standard. I trust this clarifies our stance on this matter, however if you have any further questions please do not hesitate to contact me. Rizwan Osman Director

This agency should close down as their service is very unprofessional and poorly managed by Mr. Olivier Cargill.

Dear Alex, I am sorry to hear you were not satisfied with the service provided by our property management service. As you are aware both yourself and the other tenant in your property were found to be subletting your property to third parties which is in breach of your tenancy agreement. As such you were asked to vacate the property in line with legal procedures. If you would like to discuss this matter further please do not hesitate to contact me. Rizwan Osman Director
