Written from tenant's perspective. Positive: they are generally quite good and prompt with sorting out issues. Negatives: - expensive (high application fees, £60 moving out fee even if property is perfect and nothing on inventory damage, £30 fee just to photocopy a document eg passport) - cannot be trusted to deliver on commitments, in my experience (explanation below). I had a mattress to dispose of, arranged the disposal, and was informed there would be a fee. I contacted Belvoir to ask if my costs would be covered for this - they said they would try to get hold of the landlord to ask or, if they couldn't reach him, make a decision in the office. They called me back to say 'go ahead, just get an invoice, send it to us and we'll reimburse you'. I paid the mattress collection service, got an invoice, sent it to Belvoir, and then they said "oh, it turns out the landlord doesn't want to pay, sorry." After arguing that it was THEIR responsibility to reimburse me whether or not the landlord would cover it or not since THEY told me to go ahead and make the payment and that I WOULD be reimbursed, they said, "ok, we'll forward it to the landlord". I reminded them that the landlord's input didn't really matter, since the agreement was between me and Belvoir who said I would be reimbursed (they never mentioned that the reimbursement was dependent on the landlord's later answer or anything, they just said 'go ahead, pay, you'll be paid back'). Eventually they responded with "the landlord has reluctantly agreed to pay". So after lots of arguing, Belvoir soured my relationship with my landlord to cover their own mistake. Highly unprofessional and very disappointing, and they never even admitted to their mistake. They acted as if they'd done nothing wrong, and never apologised. This was all because I trusted them to deliver on their commitment that they made over the phone. It turns out they could not be trusted. Now, I make sure I get a written record of anything they say so that I have proof. Based on my experience, I would not recommend.

Dear Mr Ganghi, We appreciate you taking the time to review our business and I’m pleased that on the whole we have been prompt in dealing with your maintenance issues. I’m sorry to hear there has been some misunderstanding relating to the disposal of the mattress. The original mattress in situ belonged to the landlord and was deemed to be perfectly good for the purpose. After sleeping on the mattress you stated that it was lumpy and uncomfortable. We agreed to talk to the landlord and ask him whether he would consider replacing the mattress as a good will gesture. After some negotiating on your behalf we managed to secure you a new mattress from the landlord. There was a charge for taking the old mattress away and as the landlord was buying you a brand new mattress he considered it only reasonable for you to pay for the disposal of the old mattress. After you had raised your objections that you thought the cost of disposal would be taken care of by the landlord we once again went back to the landlord and he agreed to take care of this cost of £20, which you were reimbursed for. We take customer service very seriously and if you have any further issues, please don’t hesitate in contacting me. Grant Woolley
