Just aweful, possibly the worst letting agency in the UK. AVOID.
worst in stirling
One of the most incompetent companies I've had the mispleasure of ever dealing with. Renting a property where for most of this winter the heating and hot water were broken (two different issues) they don't seem to care even though there is a young child in the house and this is the last in a long line of problems that never get attended to. It's always blamed on someone else and you are never updated on anything having to continually chase them up and it only gets sorted when you have to resort to witholding payment and even then they phone every day demanding payment but only phoned once to check if the heating was fixed satisfactorily. Really awful experience!
Worst letting agents!!! The property I rented was electrically unsafe, it did not meet the repairing standards, live electric wires hanging out the ceiling, light switches taped up with masking tape, they said it was a minor issue. I got a reputable electrician to check out the property who deemed it electrically unsafe to live in. Myself and children never moved in due to this. Martin and co knew about these issues 2 months prior to my move in date but still chose to ignore. The staff are arrogant and blatantly lie about everything and try to intimidate you. Imtiaz Ahmed ( managing director) took me to court for rent arrears, himself and Kevin Valentine appeared at court and lied on oath, oh also my partners ex wife appeared as a witness against me( she had not a thing to do with this) she lied under oath too. I won the court case and didn't have to pay a penny thanks to all the evidence I had. The property actually belonged to the managing director of Martin and co Stirling.
I would advise people, mainly students, to stay away from these con artists. Constantly lie, use decieving tactics to gain more money off you and have the most unprofessional staff I've ever dealt with. A few of their reviews are by some of their staff so don't believe the overall rating. If I could have I'd have gave them no stars at all. Avoid at all costs unless you've spare money to throw away and are okay with being robbed.
Totally ripped of my daughter trying to charge her for rent on a flat she had moved out of denying her her deposit back and charging her a cleaning bill for a flat that was left spotless dont deal with them they are a disgrace
Unprofessional company who are happy to take your money and do nothing for their fee. Avoid at all cost.
The service received from Martin and Co is absolutely shocking. Blatant lies are told. Customer satisfaction is simply not there. Rental house has had maintenance issues for months on end, biggest problem being the smell of cat urine in the house that cannot be eliminated with cleaning detergents such as simple solutions, Only option is to have 3 or 4 plug in smell diffuses to stop the stench. A serious health concern with 2 children and a pregnant wife. Will not ever use this company again and would advise other "clients" to be very cautious of the way the operation is managed. Absolutely shocked at their responses.
