GoogleHad a viewing with Jasmine. Could not sing her praises enough! Jasmine was really thorough with the viewing, happy to answer any questions and was very knowledgable. Did not feel rushed at all, Hasmine had a great, friendly attitude which put me at ease. Highly recommended.

GoogleDon't get fooled by the 5 star reviews - if you notice they are all around the availability of agents before the start of the tenancy, which is kindness justified by the deal they need to close. Frank Harris as a property manager has been a nightmare:
1) when we moved in the sink was broken and the heating system was extremely faulty - after multiple emails and calls they sent plumbers who would promise to come and then not come with no notifications, leaving to us the burden of calling them and chasing them. They eventually suggested a new boiler be installed and after weeks of chasing Frank Harris we managed to get approval from landlord (I had to physically go to the agency and take a day off to pressure them to get an answer from the landlord because this was February and we were without heating). The boiler took weeks to arrive, and the final result was almost 3 months without heating - no refunds, no apologies. Plumbers did bring radiators but only after weeks of us asking.
2) other issues in the house would always take over a month to be fixed, we had floodings in the kitchen, issues with doors and other things, that we would promptly notify via email. The pattern was: no reply for 2/3 days, we would call and they would say we will get back to you and never would, and they would make sure that a new person would reply for any new issue so we didn't have a person we could always contact. They try to avoid email auditing by starting new threads and calling you so you as tenant have no proof of their wrong doing.
3) even if we had no break clause and a surrender would come at cost (by contract), we wanted to move out for the very poor handling of these issues, and we were informed that, if we would provide new tenants that would pay more, we could avoid these fees. They put a lot of requirements on the new tenants (minimu salary, guarantor only in the UK, passport checks to be done only in person) to essentially deter us from finding new tenants so they could charge us the fees, but we eventually found a good profile. They purposely avoided taking the holding week deposit (which is standard practice that they did for us the moment we accepted) and delayed the background process - the new tenants of course backed down because the rent market in London is insane and they had no guarantee, and Frank Harris gave us the blame for it and subsequently started themselves looking for new tenants and finally approved an offer 1 month after we intended to leave - since we already had found a house we had to pay 2 rents for that month. This was accompanied by 'out of the contract' requests (like that we had to leave 3 days prior the end date to accomodate their check out report and other works) that they would force on us by threatening to cancel everything with the new tenants so that we would be obliged to pay the rent for the remainder of the contract.
This is just the tip of the iceberg, just stay away from this agency. Will we get our money and time back? No. Will the copy-paste message that some customer service rep would put under this review change anything? No. But at least we can help new potential tenants to make the mistake of signing any contract with this organisation.

GoogleI recently moved into a flat managed by Frank Harris, and my experience with the Barbican branch has been extremely disappointing. They treated me and the other tenant poorly, as if we had no rights, knowing they held power because we were seeking to terminate the contract. They consistently sent us threatening emails, pressuring us to comply with their unreasonable demands or else they won't proceed with terminating the agreement.
Even though we found a replacement tenant, it took them three weeks to complete the referencing process, during which time the new tenants decided to withdraw their application due to the delay. They did this on purpose to force us to pay for their 'looking for new tenants'. To make matters worse, they forced us to pay rent for three days while a contractor was carrying out work inside the flat. Despite informing them that I have asthma and cannot tolerate the paint smell, they still insisted I vacate the flat and continue paying rent during that period.
This experience has been beyond frustrating, and I would caution anyone considering using this agency.
