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.

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

Woeful. Terrible UX. Terrible comms. Will email you daily with "URGENT" in the subject title for the same details for the "case manager" (who likely doesn't exist) to "review" (which they don't). Exhausting to deal with. And guess what? They don't care.

Horrendous company for referencing. Won’t accept payslips as proof of income?!? If you’re self employed or run your own business you have no chance of being approved unless your willing to provide your inside leg measurements. Never experienced anyone like them

Absolutely horrible wouldn’t recommend to anyone they messed about with us for 3 weeks and ended up not giving us the flat. Bad communication and, literally do not care about your situation at all, we told them we are going to be homeless because of this and they could not care less, do not use company unless your planning on camping on the streets, the process took so long, and they kept asking for stuff they had already sent, literally a disgusting company would give 0 stars if I could

Absolute JOKE of a company. Take forever to reply, have a robotic non-human and depressive attitude. Landlords and Tenants AVOID AT ALL COSTS. Data farming customers. You have been warned.
