Didn't fix boiler for a week during winter, and when an engineer was sent out, the problem persisted. Sent out engineers a couple more times but boiler was never properly fixed.
Hi dGG, thanks for your feedback. I'd be grateful if you could email me (patrick@purplefrogproperty.com) with more details to see if I can resolve things for you. Patrick

This agent took holding deposits from two groups on the same property (not allowed under holding deposit rules). They have failed to return the money to the group who they didn’t let the property to, in over three weeks. (7 days is the maximum they are allowed to keep holding fees in case of rental not going ahead).NegativeProfessionalism

DO NOT GO WITH PURPLE FROG IF YOU ARE A STUDENT. Very unprofessional, chasing them for deposits back and were very unhelpful on the phone, spoke to 4 different agents before one of them knew what to do. terrible.NegativeResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

My friend and I have been looking for a place today and we were stuck over questions about prices & viewings. We had wonderful support from Beckie and would thoroughly recommend Purple Frog as a business to anybody who needs some support finding a property.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

This company is pathetic. They fail to respond to phone calls, have no answer phone and do not pass on messages internally. My son has had to move out as his flat was flooded and they did nothing for over a week. Do not rent through them.NegativeResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

Worst agency ever! It's been 2 months and still not heard anything about our deposit. They just take your money and don't care about you. Would take ages for them to even get back to us with maintenance when we were there. And there were a lot that needed fixing. Like for one, when we moved in, the toilet seat was broken. We had to go buy one for them to replace. Boiler stopped working and all sorts. They don't even respond to email and when you call, they give you rubbish answers. They just lie to you. Honestly, don't even bother with renting with this agency. Save your money and go private, rather than with an agency. Would've stayed in that second year home if we didn't have less peopleNegativeResponsiveness, Professionalism

They made many unfair deductions to our deposit after we left the house in a better condition than we found it in. They kept our deposit for 3 months whilst we tried to reason with them. They would not respond for months at a time after emailing and calling them multiple times a week. We had asked them to send us a check out report with evidence of what they are charging us for (photos and invoices from contractors etc.) - they refused to send any of this information over. They then tried to offer a 30% discount in the deductions, trying to coerce us into settling so they can pocket the money. We didn't fall for this scam, instead we spoke to the regional manager who admitted they had none of the information they needed to charge us for anything (no photos, no checkout report, no invoices). This left them no choice but to give us all of the deposit back... after three months and loads of hassle. The manager was also quite rude on the phone but at least he did his job like he should've 3 months ago. :( Do not rent with purple frog, if you are looking for a student house to rent go on unipol and find a private landlord - it will save you a lot of hassle.NegativeResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

One of the worst letting experiences I’ve EVER had! The Nottingham branch is very unprofessional and unresponsive through tenancy. When left in a house with no heating or hot water in the middle of winter for over a week. We were provided with 2 small under desk heaters from their office for a 4 storey house. Which was completely unacceptable. Additionally when we had vacated the property it took over 60 days to receive a deposit statement in which contained ridiculous chargers with no proof or evidence for charge. Despite us having evidence to dispute the charges, most disputes were completely dismissed/ not even acknowledged. It seems that purple frog’s business plan is to exploit their clients, by not responding/ reading emails/ not picking up phone calls. In order to hold deposits until clients give up. Over 30 emails, 25 phones calls and 100 days from vacating the property, purple frog are still holding our deposits of over £1000. Completely unprofessional almost to the point of scamming.NegativeProfessionalism
