Really, really poor experience with DJ Alexander. Reported faults with the flat have still not been fixed after one year - had to fix them myself. The hostility comes across in emails and phone calls. I needed to change to a solo tenancy which they refused to do, until I asked them to directly ask the landlord. When they did they, the landlord was more than happy to change the agreement. It's frustrating for myself as a tennant, and the landlord that they are not communicating well with both sides. The threatening nature of emails is quite unnerving. I would avoid letting with DJ Alexander, and strongly advise being familiar with Citizens Advice. Several loopholes are used by DJ Alexander to undermine Tennant's rights. I've never felt so uncomfortable and unsecure in a flat - the uncertainty posed by this letting agency has left me losing faith with letting agents. UPDATE I left the flat in June 2023 and didn’t receive my deposit back until Christmas. They also accused me of removing a glass panel of an oven, which was not present when I first arrived. They tried to charge me for the removal of some furniture when I left, which was not removed I discovered. The flat had damp and mouldy washing in the washing machine when I arrived. The flat was dirty and hadn’t been cleaned. There was a nice infestation when we arrived. So when I was charged for cleaning when I left the flat in a better state that I rented it in, it was clear that there was an objective to claim as much money from the tenant as possible. So naturally, I disputed the extra £200+ charge on top of the refusal to refund my deposit. When staff left, my email chains and request for dispute and initiating the deposit returnwere not passed along, meaning I had to start the entire process of claiming my deposit over and over again. Shambolic service and huge stressor for months. Please, please avoid if you can. I do not blame the staff, but the company has such a poor culture of playing with money and not caring about the tenant.

Exactly the letting agent you want every day but also when the worst happens - they really care about their tenants and will drop everything when a crisis hits. Their primary care is keeping a good relationship between landlord and tenant and they'll do all they can when something needs sorting to break the new to me gently and ensure that everything is fixed professionally and rapidly. And, when a DISASTER happens, they're like an emergency service.

We have recently marketed and rented a property through DJ Alexander Glasgow.Their service has been excellent and they helped with the process of liaising with the new tenants when the CH failed just before the moving in date. Their marketing of the property has been professional and myself and my wife feel that they listened to us throughout this process. I feel that this has been helped by having a Paige as my client contact keeping me informed all the way. Conor who was our initial new business manager led us through the service and has been a listening ear whenever we had any questions. We live remotely from the flat so having some approachable and easily contactable has been important.

Me and my flatmate just had the best experience with DJ Alexander. Nathan Eastwood help us a lot with getting us the flat we really wanted. I have a dog, so it’s not easy! We also had one viewing with Gemma-Louise and she was very helpful in answering all the questions regarding the flat we were seeing and other questions not related to the flat.There is just one thing that needs improving. When I was booking several viewings, it always asked me if I had a pet and I always selected that option and then mentioned the type of pet and breed. It still let me book the viewing and we had a few viewings where we were really disappointed to hear that dogs weren’t allowed at all.
