Worst agent Ive ever used

Shocking agent. They illegal let a workman into my property while I was away who made a mess, started work without my permission, and worst of all: stole some of my stuff. They are refusing to help. All I got was a "were sorry we didn't tell you someone was coming round" email. Now they are trying to withhold my deposit. Absolute crooks.

After 8 years in my rented flat we're moving on during that time we've had various dealings with miles and barr and they have always been courteous and efficient our main contact has been with Amanda Turner who has been a pleasure to deal with and is always friendly and helpful and also made our moving out a smooth process no problem leaving a 5 star review

Property Management poor

Have used M & B for 7 years to manage our rental property. Increasingly poor service as the years go by, with many staff changes in property management and a willingness to abdicate rather than own a problem or issue. A recent failure to meet a legal deadline for gas safety, was met with untold reasons and justifications as to why is was not their responsibility (my poor choice of landlord contract apparently!) and the solution in an email from M & B was for me to resolve. Always opted for the fully managed service since using M & B but we really do not receive the 'fully comprehensive management service' as advertised or promised. Untold input required from the landlord on occasions, which is time consuming and effectively contradicts having a letting agent in the first place. On the plus side the rent payments are always prompt and any discrepancies dealt with quickly and efficiently. Such a shame that the property management side of the company is so inefficient and hard work to deal with at times.

Miles and Barr proved quite difficult to get hold of, several call to their lettings number went unanswered and promised call backs did not happen. I finally got a call and arranged a viewing, while waiting outside the flat I was called to say that there was a problem with the keys and they would have to cancel. However, this was rectified and I was finally shown round by Jake Chamberlain, who was polite and courteous. If he didn't know an answer to my question he said so, rather than try and bluff his way through, which I appreciated. The flat was not for me in the end, but I have nothing bad to say about the agent who showed it to me. The agency itself came across as a bit disorganised, but they got there in the end.

Disorganised management team

Absolute joke Miles and Barr are. Letting agency lost my front door keys which I paid to have replaced. Tenant left the flat in a disgusting way yet the check out was deemed satisfactory. The sub contractor cleaner said she cleaned the flat yet upon inspection is absolutely filthy. When I raised this with the letting team I got passed from operator to operator. I firmly believe the letting agency has family members as sub contractors and sadly I parted companies with them and have a new management agent. In one word. SHOCKING.
