Very dishonest, awful communication and to top it off farm your data. I was the first person to ring this agent about a lovely property that had just come on the rental market within 5 minutes of being listed. The property was not ready for viewings as the tenants were still in the property. I was promised by Emily, a call back the following day to arrange a viewing but did not receive that call. I then rang the following day, by which point of course the viewings were filled but managed to be fitted in at nearly the end of a full day of viewings. After viewing, showing our keen interest and offering a higher deposit, we were promised call backs on many occasions updating us on our application. I noticed over two weeks after the viewing, that the property was Let Agreed so called for an update and she stated the landlords of the property were coming in "that day" (how convenient) and we would receive a call by the end of the day. Firstly, again, that call never came, secondly, why lie knowing the let has already been agreed? She also mentioned that the landlords were an elderly couple, and I’m not sure how that was relevant? What a strange lie to come up knowing full well the property was off the market? That could have just been said straight away. To top it all off, we have had none stop scam emails since giving over our email addresses to this estate agents. We will never be giving over our personal email address again to any of these snake estate agents again. We are quite glad to have avoided living in a property managed by Nicolas Humphrey's, because if we had an issue, we can imagine just how poor the communication and delayed the resolution would be as tenants. We would know doubt face a web of lies about something as simple as a boiler being fixed! Shady, absolutely terrible communication and dishonest - Avoid.

Dear Teebz, Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We sincerely apologise for the frustration and disappointment you experienced during the application process. Communication is a cornerstone of our service, and we regret that we fell short of your expectations in this instance. We’d like to clarify that Emily is a highly regarded member of our team, with numerous clients praising her professionalism, transparency, and dedication in their reviews. For example, one recent reviewer mentioned, “Emily was incredibly responsive and kept us informed at every stage—a breath of fresh air!” while another noted, “Emily went above and beyond to help us secure our property quickly and efficiently.” We take pride in her track record and are sorry that this was not reflected in your experience. Regarding the property in question, we strive to be as transparent as possible about application progress, and we apologise if updates were delayed or unclear. The Let Agreed status is sometimes subject to final landlord approval, which may explain the miscommunication. However, we acknowledge that this should have been communicated to you more promptly. As for your concerns about data privacy, we take this very seriously and do not share personal information with third parties for marketing purposes. If you’ve received unsolicited emails, we’d like to investigate this further—please contact us directly so we can address it. We appreciate your feedback as it helps us improve, and we hope you’ll give us another opportunity to demonstrate the high standards we’re known for. If you’d like to discuss this further, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me directly at wimborne@nicholashumphreys.com. Kind Regards Bhav Patel Director Nicholas Humphreys
