*URGENT*. I am the business owner and according to my records you have never used the Twickenham office and there is no record of you. You have certainly not paid a holding deposit to my office so please remove this review and direct your concerns to the correct Agent/office. Many thanks - Phil Steed (Director).

Absolutely a nightmare! The apartment had some issues (e.g. mould coming from the ceiling, issues with the curtain rod, the boiler not working, etc...) It took ages to solve all the issues the apartment had (and many were not solved at all) even after many emails exchanged between us and the agency. For most of the problems reported we had to contact them multiple times by phone and by email to make something happen. For the boiler issue, for example, we had to stay more than 10 days without hot water...unbelievable. Not recommended at all.

Staff were rude, unhelpful and acted like I was stupid. Not impressed, avoid at all costs!

The agency was supposed to manage the apartment that they rented us but they didn't. I had to wait at least 2 months for every single problem before they act on it (chasing them every week). I had to leave for this situation and I reported them to the Property Ombudsman for a formal dispute. The property "15 Cranemead Court, 43 Whitton Road, Twickenham" has big humidity problems in 2 corners of 2 rooms that the agency did not resolve after almost 2 years that I reported it.

Unsurprisingly you are being very economical with the truth and if you do refer the matter to TPO we will respond accordingly. The damp issues were not severe and had to be dealt with by the managing agents for the block and not this agency since the cause related to external walls; we explained this and we handled the referral for action. You left the property only because we granted you early exit and your former sharer remains having formally renewed for another fixed term! I personally organised your tenancy release with the Landlord - it could have been denied.

Horrible experience !We didn’t have hot water for 6 weeks in such a cold weather with a 14 months old baby who had a cold! We had to boil water in a kettle to take a shower or wash the baby. !Many excuses for not sorting out the problem such as not finding the part, the engineer being on holiday for a week,...which is unacceptable as such an emergency issue should be fixed within 24 hours and we’ve been kept waiting for 6 weeks!Also there was a running water from a pipe outside the property for 4 days! Waste of energy and money! Our bills are doubled because of the faulty boiler and other technical problems.Very very rude, unprofessional and aggressive property manager (called Magnus)though. At the end, we had to contact the council to sort this problem out! The engineers are still working on it right now and I don’t understand why it’s unbelievable for Phil! If the problems were solved 2 days ago, they wouldn’t spend 7 hours working on it today from 8:00am until 15:00 pm!

Dear Gina, I'm so sorry that the heating & h/water problems at your flat have taken so long to resolve. We had an engineer visit several weeks ago and he was then authorised to order a new part. That ordering process caused a delay and when fitted problems returned. The same engineer was then on holiday so we had to appoint new engineers and they attended. The system was checked, work undertaken but further problems emerged. I have seen the regular emails between you, Nima and my Prop Mgr and understand your frustration. We only use certified engineers so I cannot understand why things were not sorted before now. I last spoke to my Prop Mgr yesterday who confirmed that engineers had visited again and reported problem rectified; you then reported continued problems which is unbelievable. Those engineers were instructed to return as a priority and I have requested their full report. Phil (owner)
