USELESS company. Unprofessional and rude staff. Phone calls are never answered. Just a waste time. Horrible experience in even getting a viewing from them as calls are never answered. AVOID!

Agent replied · 24 August 2024

Firstly, we are very sorry to read of your experience. We have recently become aware of telephone issues where some of our internal divert lines which overflow from reception were not working and therefore calls were ringing from the callers end but not filtering through to our telephones. As some lines were working and some not, we were getting calls so did not realise there was an issue until it was brought to our attention from some callers who got through by hanging up and trying again. We would like to investigate the further comments you have made about our standards of service and would kindly ask you to please provide details so we can indeed investigate and ensure improvements are made where necessary. We take these matters seriously and again apologise for your experience with SAB.

Just one suggestion that an Agent actually attends the flat to hand over the keys. This would help with a smooth handover as we are shown where everything is inc meters and how everything works.

Useless agent. Rude, never introduced herself, and knew nothing of the property, unable to answer a single question before demanding the viewing finishes as she had another viewing to attend. The owner of SAB needs a word with them as it was like an episode of stath let's flat's!

very rude people. would extract money for almost anything. they don't respect the tenants and I had a worst and unforgivable experience though its been few months I moved out from their property for this reason.

Following your one-star review of us three months ago we asked you to please contact us directly as we take all complaints seriously and wish to address your matter however the name listed on this review does not appear in our database. We are yet to receive this and please do kindly ask you to do this otherwise regular one star reviews from you will affect our overall rating which we feel is an unfair representation.

Terrible agency, I strongly recommend to avoid it. There is no respect for the tenant and the contract is shady. They put additional payment stuff in the lower part of the contract after many many pages.

Alessandro · 25 August 2020 · SAB Saint Andrews Bureau Ltd Cambridge

Agent replied · 24 August 2024

We are sorry to see your comments and sincerely apologise for any issues you experienced. Regarding the charges which tenants should be aware of, although these are listed in a later section of the tenancy agreement, these are initially listed on the front pages of the terms and conditions the applicant should be aware of before applying for the property. We therefore seek to make these transparent to an applicant before they apply to rent a property and thereafter when signing the tenancy agreement, they are already aware of any tenancy related costs. We take all complaints seriously and would kindly ask you to submit any details of your complaint to us so we can investigate and improve our services.

Great letting agents. I viewed a property and was moved in within two weeks, if that doesn't scream efficiency I don't know what does. Matt, Jordan and Conor deserve a mention. Matt was lovely when showing me around various properties whilst Jordan and Conor have dealt with any issues with great efficiency and kindness. I would say one thing that is a shame is that the landlords of where I am staying did not paint the flat before I moved in, but the guys at SAB are pushing for this to be sorted which I am grateful for. Would highly recommend SAB for your letting needs, they are a professional yet personable agency.

I had a very good experience so far with SAB. Rented a studio with them. So far i can say they were super profesional. I viewed several properties with Leah, who was really kind, clear and helpful. Always polite and with a smile. Thorburn helped me throughout the whole renting process, answering all my questions (emails and phone calls)... and helping me with everything! Always polite and ending with "have a lovely day" Both were really kind and kindness, when at a lost looking for a place to live (in a new country), must not be taken for granted. Thank you guys. You are a great Team!

SAB at Royston have looked after the rental of my flat very efficiently for over 10 years. Caroline is very helpful and always knows what is going on even though I have had several problems with my flat. None due to SAB! I would definitely recommend them.

Seriously, these people Were not polite with me, I had stayed in one of their managed property, though the place was good but their service was impolite and avaricious, I mainly changed my house because of their behaviour. People be careful while renting out from them coz they do have some good houses but they don’t reveal a lot of things unless you ask and they charge more in terms of administration fees. They would also pose liability on you even if the things were already broken or repair, so you got to be particular about that and check properly while moving in and if some thing breaks or stops working just by regular usage you have to make multiple calls and mails in order to fix it. If you guys really like their property take these all into consideration or find a better property agents.

Lovely property with good cleaning services provided by the landlord for the communal areas. Very friendly personnel to deal with. Security of the doors and windows good. The large and well equipped kitchen and bothrooms, with 2 cookers and 3 fridge freezers in the Kitchen and 3 bathrooms. I would recommend this house to any professional tenants to consider. Nash

As a first time tenant, SAB @ Cambridge were courteous and helpful in showing properties, with the tenancy formalities and settling-in. The house itself was in a wonderful location in Central Cambridge. They were prompt in addressing minor issues with the property. They were also supportive when it came to closing the tenancy and arranged for the settlement to be completed within a week’s time. Special shout out to Jackie D and Jordan N who were very responsive on phone and emails. Professional, accommodating and friendly letting agents. Would highly recommend them.

I've been living in Cambridge for 10 years, and have to say SAB is one of the best letting company. They shows very reasonable price properties, and after moved in, they tried to fix all sort of house problems very fast. I heard from many of my friends that other agencies, they just too slow or don't even response for house problem after they move in. Especially, this is the reason I'm writing this review. I had to move out before the contract end because of job relocation. As you know this is very complicated situation, but SAB tries their best to figure out. Also, if I ask some process which I don't understand, they explain clearly again. Of course they will charge penalty fee and lets before new tenant enter, however, I like to emphasis how gentle the way to treat this problem they are. It was very happy to stay house under SAB. Thank you.

response from customer care has the wrong information

Sandra:I have received a reply and your reps keep saying I did not respond to the email with the offer. I did and I have forwarded the email yet again hopefully, someone will look at the history of this account, these calls, and the emails. It is very upsetting to have to go through this over and over again. If I didn't reply to the email I would not be fighting this point. I have waited over 2 weeks for a response and now they have added a late fee Every point they make is wrong time and time again. This is a disgrace.

Awful company

Awful company! I gave my notice to cancel my co-working agreement. I then get offered a 2month free if I commit to 5months on the last day before I was due for termination, which I agreed to. I have now had all sorts of wrong charges, parking charges, and late fees, asking for payments when I have already paid.The office itself is nice but the way ur treated is awful. for small businesses, you want to feel trusted and supported.I tried emailing you Sandra but your email address is undeliverable and bouncing - send me an email address that works and I will respond to that.

I have a private office in 31 Penn…

I have a private office in 31 Penn Plaza (NYC), the staff is very unprofessional and honestly this is the worst office experience I have yet to have. I highly advise everyone to look elsewhere. I am surely moving out.+Profiteering during the pandemic by taking advantage of struggling businesses.EDIT: I contacted them after their reply and they made promises they never fulfilled. Choose a different space! There are many alternatives in the city, I am moving to a new place ASAP.EDIT2: I would like to add that they have yet to fulfill their promises, specifically the people involved with my account are Staci Johnson and Sharon Bajwa. Shame on them.

Hi Tira,While everyone is entitled to their own opinion, ours differs from yours. At Spaces we work hard to make sure that our employees are held to the highest level of customer service. We’re sad to hear that you’re going to be vacating your office. We’d like to discuss these issues with you, but we’re unable to identify your account.We’re offended that you would state that we were profiteering during the pandemic. We provided very well thought out relief offers for our customers and were very proud to offer them. Our offers were accepted by 1000’s of our customers in order to make sure their businesses were able to continue during this crisis. Could you please email me at sandra.melody@spacesworks.com with your company name or ID? You can find both of those on your invoices. I look forward to receiving more information from you. Best, Sandra Melody Head of Customer Services

I loved Spaces till my nightmare with the Helpdesk

I loved Spaces and been a member since 2013. Working with their helpdesk has been one of the worse experiences I ever had. I have called and emailed them over 10 times to clear up a billing issue. Each time they said I would hear from them in 24 to 48 hours or a manager would call me. Never happened and when I followed up. with them again each person gave me a different answer. I have a month to month contract - today I received an email saying I owed them over $10,000.00. At this point, they are harassing me and I would go so far to say embellishing me. This ordeal has made me sick.

Hi Dion,We want to thank you for being a customer of Spaces since 2013. It’s disconcerting to hear that your experience with our Account Helpdesk was anything other than great.

We won’t get into your account details here, but I will have a Sr. team member reach out to you to address your concerns in more detail.

Terrible, Terrible Company

When initially looking for an office space, the sales representative told us that all the construction would be completed by February 1st when we moved in.We were out of town until the 3rd of February, so we were finally able to come in and see our office after that. Upon arrival we noticed that all the construction space looked exactly the same as it did the month prior when we toured the location. It appeared that no work had been done, and the entire first floor of the site was still a construction zone. Furthermore, there were several marks on the wall of our office, which seemed super strange for something that was supposed to be brand new. When I asked the manager if we would get charged for this upon move out, she said all the offices get charged a cleaning fee anyway. It was pretty clear that no one cared about any of the office spaces. When we initially toured the location, the sales rep told us that every single office was sold out except for one. When we arrived in early February, I only saw one other person in an office there (probably because there was still construction going on). When talking to the office manager, they seemed confused as to why people were paying for offices and not using them. If you were to go and actually see how this location looked, the answer is pretty obvious. All in all, the entire location was dirty, loud, and a very sad place to get any work done. As soon as we took one look at the place, we did not come back. When inquiring about cancelling, I was informed that I would have to pay for the current month and the following month. I understand that a 30 day notice is required to cancel, but was hoping for a little more flexibility. When emailing the manager to request a refund, I got a reply simply saying "we don't give refunds." Considering I never used the office space and was not able to come in on the very first day of the lease, I would have appreciated a little more help.When contacting the company to share my experience, I just got a canned response from their service team (probably outsourced overseas). All in all, this entire business is super shady and I would suggest taking your business to other workspaces in the Sacramento area.UPDATE for 7/10 2020: I thought this nightmare would be over after I paid the invoices that shouldn't even have been given to me to begin with. Four months later, Spaces is sending me another invoice along with a late fee. I've tried reaching out to customer service via email and calling several times with no answer.

The worst level of service I've experienced in quite a while

The worst level of service I've ever received in a service agreement in the last 20 years. The employees at the Santa Monica Spaces location are fabulous, the management is non-existent. Read the other 1-star reviews at Spaces Santa Monica, based on my personal experience, they are all accurate, I won't bore you with my story, I'll just say they are great when signing you up, if you have any issue at all about their end of the deal, the staff at the individual locations have no power to rectify anything, have been told by upper management to not contact corporate on behalf of the customer, have the customer contact directly. They take a week plus to answer when they answer, and their answer is always "sorry you feel that way but no." The parent company, Regus, seems to be run by the worst people. Read up on twitter etc about how terrible they treat their customers. People in the UK seems to get the shaft even worse, but they're pretty terrible stateside as well.

Hi Kurt,We can appreciate all your feedback, good and bad. We love to hear that our local teams are fabulous and will pass on the message. At Spaces, we prefer that our customers utilize their online portal www.myspaceworks.com as this allows our customers to be in control of their accounts, view their invoices, pay, book a meeting room, and can even process their termination of agreement. Our Account Helpdesk is made up of a team of thoughtful, service oriented, and customer focused individuals who pride themselves on their ability to help resolve issues. We do direct our customers to our Account Helpdesk when it comes to billing and account needs as this allows the local team to be able to focus all their attention on our customers and their needs at the local level to ensure that they have a Great Day at Work. We do apologize for the delay in a response time as we are currently having a high demand of queries during the pandemic. I will have a senior team member reach out to you to address your concerns. If you need anything else, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me at Sandra.melody@regus.com.Warmest Regards,Sandra MelodyHead of Customer Service
