Will constantly spam you, despite the landlord no longer living at our address for 5+ years, they keep sending weekly spam mail asking for new properties - from Jevan Bath. I have asked multiple times for it to be updated.

I received a call from Harjivan yesterday confirming that the property was mine and that I just needed to put down the holding deposit. I explained that I was at work and could not make the payment immediately. I was reassured that this was not a problem and that I could pay the holding deposit today. When I called this morning to make the payment, I spoke with Collin. His attitude was extremely rude and dismissive. When I explained what Harjivan had told me, Collin said that this was “not his problem” and that “this is how we do things,” showing no empathy and making no attempt to resolve the situation. The overall tone was very much “that’s your problem.” This was particularly disappointing as I had expressed how excited I was about the property. The experience was let down entirely by poor communication and unprofessional customer service.

Hi Cherie - We are sorry that you lost out on the property. We have a process in place which is clearly stated in the tenants’ advisory notes which you were sent, stating that putting a holding deposit down secures a property for you. Unfortunately, you did not send in the required funds and somebody else put their holding fee down before you. This process was put in place as we have a large number of tenants who say they want a property but never end up paying the deposit. Once again, I am sorry you missed out on this property but as already confirmed to you we would be happy to help you with your search. Best wishes from all at The Frost Partnership Estate Agents.

Moving in was absolutely fine and I had no issues at all. Unfortunately, moving out was a completely different experience. They tried to deduct as much as they possibly could from my deposit, charging extremely high prices for things that were honestly ridiculous. They even attempted to take utility bills from my deposit before they had been emailed or sent to me, and before I was even aware of the amounts. I ended up winning the appeal, which says enough. I was recommending them at first, but the way the end of my tenancy was handled has completely changed my opinion. I understand contracts and fair charges where things are left behind, but instead of being honest with pricing, they go straight for the highest charges. Overall, I’m extremely disappointed with how they tried to get money out of me.

As a landlord, I approached Frost with the intention of letting out one of my properties, believing they had a solid reputation in the area. Unfortunately, my experience was completely soured by the unprofessional conduct of Pooja Shah from the sales and lettings team. From the beginning, communication was poor. Pooja was unresponsive to emails, slow to return calls, and showed a complete lack of initiative when it came to progressing anything. I had to chase her constantly for updates, and even then, I was met with vague answers and little to no follow-through. It felt like she simply wasn’t interested or bothered. Her disorganisation and lack of urgency not only delayed the process unnecessarily but also made me lose confidence in the agency as a whole. It’s a shame, because I was genuinely prepared to work with Frost for the long term, but this experience has put me off completely. If this is how they treat landlords trying to give them business, I dread to think how tenants are handled. I won’t be using Frost again, and I certainly wouldn’t recommend anyone deal with Pooja Shah. ⚠️⚠️⚠️

Hi Asha - We take all feedback seriously and we would like to look into this further. However, we do not have any record of contact with our Slough office and therefore have no contact details for you. We would be grateful if you could email your contact information to marketing@frostweb.co.uk and our Lettings Director will contact you to discuss. Kind regards The Frost Partnership

Avoid them at all cost. Multiple issues in the flat took ages to resolve and they withheld a large chunk of my deposit for faults that were already present when i moved in.

Thank you for your review, we do take all reviews seriously. In line with the government guidelines we use professional inventory clerks and the TDS. We are sorry that you are unhappy with their findings. The Frost Partnership.

At the end of the rental period, we cleaned the house and left, the house was empty for a few weeks after we left, it may have gotten a little dusty in the meantime, the real estate agent told us that cleaning would be done, we accepted it but they charged us 340 pounds, even for the London area, a very high amount of money for cleaning service. I asked the cleaning company for the invoice for this service, they did not send it. We also left an extension cord, a clothes drying rack and a few items for the next tenant, and I was charged 150 pounds to remove them from the house, I do not find these actions fair at all. An uninterested and unkind real estate office

Thank you for your comments, we use an independent professional inventory clerk to move you into the property and to move you out. Any difference in condition (aside from fair wear and tear) you are liable for. The property was not clean and you have left items in the property. These needed to be resolved so that the new tenants can take the property in the same condition as when you took it. Therefore you were charged.

Avoid This Agency – Poor Service and Unresolved Issues I had a very disappointing experience with this agency. Over the course of a month, we dealt with a severe water leak in the property, which was not addressed despite multiple complaints. The living conditions were unacceptable. Additionally, they withheld our deposit without providing clear justification. The terms in the contract were confusing and did not seem fair to us as tenants. I would strongly recommend others to be cautious and avoid this agency if you value clear communication and good service.

I had a very disappointing experience with this estate agent. As a self-employed individual, I was told my cash income wouldn't be considered, even though I provided all the necessary documentation. They insisted on bank transactions only, which is unrealistic for many self-employed people. I even offered to pay 12 months' rent upfront, but that was rejected without a clear explanation. This agency feels unprofessional and seems to be trying to trick innocent tenants and waste their time, especially if you are a foreigner. I’m still waiting for a refund of £311. If this isn't resolved soon, I’ll escalate this to the authorities. Be cautious when dealing with them. This review to people like me of foreign background just don't waste your time with them, and for you Frost management just put a sigh on your doors ,we don't deal with foreigners simple.

Thank you for your review. We take all feedback seriously and have investigated the points you have raised. When you offered on the property you were sent our “breakdown of charges” which you read and signed. This document clearly states that if you are unable to demonstrate you earn the required salary to pass referencing you will forfeit your holding deposit. Whilst you may well earn £45,000 as both earn cash in hand there is no way you are able to prove this, and you failed referencing. We act on behalf of the landlord, and they have insurance that will not be issued unless there are passed references and why your offer of 12 months in advance was also refused. Lastly and most importantly The Frost Partnership absolutely refute your accusation that you were discriminated against as you were a foreigner. The only reason you were not able to proceed with the property you offered on was down to you earning cash in hand and thus not being able to demonstrate your annual salary. The Frost Partnership will have no hesitation in taking action against you if you continue with your allegation of discrimination.

Our experience with Frost Estate Agents has been extremely disappointing. As foreigners, we felt misled and defrauded by their practices. Despite my husband explaining that he has been self-employed for over 9 years, meaning rent affordability was not an issue, their agent, Nabid Rahman and Pooja shah, encouraged us to apply for a flat. However, it became clear that they knew from the beginning that our application would not be successful. This appears to have been a tactic to collect the £311 application fee, with no intention of actually offering us the flat. We believe that this behavior is not only unethical but also discriminatory towards foreigners. We feel scammed by Frost Estate Agents, and we want others to be aware of this experience before considering doing business with them. We urge others, especially those who are not local, to exercise caution when dealing with this agency.

Very bad. Frost Slough are asking for minimum 54000/Anum salary to pass the reference to rent a property. Blaming the reference checking agency and landlords but hiding the fact that they are the one who promises and increases the expectations of landlords to scam and attract. When I insisted to check with landlord they got rude and said if tenants cannot afford to pay rent after property is let then insurance company will pay the rent. When asked low long then they refused to answer and put the phone down.

Thank you for taking the time to leave this feedback – all feedback is appreciated and helps us improve our service and procedures. However having looked into the points you have raised I feel our procedures were followed correctly. As a letting agent we need to ensure that a potential tenant is in a financial position to pay the rent and to do so we use an external referencing company that will confirm your actual earning and that there is no adverse credit history. When a tenant contacts us to register we ask certain questions to check that you will pass the referencing criteria. As with many agents any potential tenant/s will have to demonstrate that they earn 30 x the monthly rent. When you were asked this question the information you gave was substantially below that level and it would have been wasting all parties time in showing you any properties. I am sorry we were not able to assist you with your search for a property. Kind regards, The Frost Partnership
