If I could give zero I would.

Appalling customer service from Cardiff rental office. Struggling to find a decent rental house and called/email this company as they advertised a house I was very keen to view. About 30 calls (each time a call centre picks up and take your details for a call back) and 4 emails, but no luck. Managed to get through to the branch twice and both times they said they'll respond on email, but nothing happened. 10 or so follow up calls later and I've given up. Shocking customer service.Edit: In response to the company's response, the email supplied was used on a few occasions before with no acknowledgment or return emails from them.

NEVER let your property with Darlows Merthyr!

Never let you property with Darlows. I have done so with thier Merthry Branch and it has been a NIGHTMARE for the past 4 years. I have finally left them after trying to do so for over a year. An endless list of issues with thier management of my let property. They charge you for maintenance and inspections that never takes place, even when you tell them you do want need it they undetake it and then charge you. They NEVER answer thier phone, they never check the properties depsite saying they do, when you want to end the tenancy then do not inform the tenant and never tell you until you chase them up and then just say "oh sorry we didnt do it"... I have constantly had to complain, chase up rent every month all for them to take 12% of the rent. The service is so awaful that it beggers belief.... I have had to make 2 formal complaints in the past 12 months. I warn you DO NOT USE them to manage your properties.....AS of today Aug 17th I still have not recieved a response after making my formal complaint about the above...the website says they will respond within 48 hours. I have also received the final rental due to me and they deducted Β£90 for the gas cert that i had cancelled.... my tenant moved out on the 6th July and and the Gas cert was due 12th July...no gas cert was necessary as I chose not to let the property out so why Darlows think they needed to get a gas cert in the first place is beyond me.... that just goes to shows how terrible this company is..... good luck Darlows as you will fall one day with business ethics like this.Update 24 Aug 2021 - I have emailed them yet again the info to the email they suggested in the message below. Let see what happens. I will update this in due course and see if they refund me the Β£90.

I have used Darlows to sell my property and have been really pleased with the whole process, especially as they the sale happened during covid restrictions. Everything from the house valuation through to the sales strategy and then viewings & sales negotiation has been communicated well in a way that is friendly and professional. I have been able to reach Rhys, Emma and Adam really easily throughout and would be confident to use them again. Special appreciation for Rhys with the valuation and making the process enjoyable. Then to Emma Jones for all the strategy and knowing precisely how to form a connection with me. Finally to Adam Robjohn who always turned up on time for all the viewings, kept me informed and who nailed the sales negotiation in about 5 mins to get me what I wanted for the property. Thanks all.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism

I used Darlows many years ago when purchasing a property in Heritage Park. When I decided to sell the property I decided to use Darlows again and tbh they've been great. Emma dealt with the sale from day one. Not only is she very professional but also down to earth and immediately put you at ease regarding the sale. I have no issues with Emma or Darlows and in fact am now using them to sell a second property. Jeff a satisfied customer..😊PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

Myself and my girlfriend have been looking for our first house and came across Emma from Darlows. Emma has felt directly with us now from the moment we showed interest until us being accepted, and I can say she was gone above and beyond for us, being very responsive and professional at all time, helpful as it’s our first time and in general the best person we could have hoped to have when searching for our first house. We are very grateful we came across Emma and we highly recommend :-) Katie and ElisPositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

DONT LET DARLOWS MANAGE YOUR PROPERTY

Do Not Use Darlows to manage any of your property especially in Cardiff area.To start off Darlows are also know as Spicehaart.1: before I signed the contract I specifically ask what hidden charges are there as I live abroad. They have not mentioned anything about annual NRL fees , to top that off they charged me this in march and now they charged me in May ( so Much for ANNUAL robbing gits )they also then charge additional admins fees on top which was not even mentioned.2: Income and expenditure report fee !! HIDDEN CHARGES !!! that cost Β£120 which I dont even need.3: their communications is appauling it takes 2 weeks without reply and if your agent is on holiday you wll not get help at all.I have to use threatening emails using Consumer Rights Act 2015 and guess what immediately they replied !!for Land Lords and tennants:"Failing to understand current consumer legislation could lead to a breach of your customer's consumer rights. ... Failing to do so could entitle the customer to cancel - up to 12 months and 14 days after signing the contract, even if your contractual obligations have been performed".4: their contractors are DOUBLE the price what you can get yourselves , however if I go and find contractors myself then what is the point of me paying FULLY SERVICED FEE and then they make money by charging more ! This is Unfair trading.Fully service fee should also cover anything of communications and money handling , but they charge me NRL fees !!5: my previous agent ( not darlows ) give me very stable rent into my bank every month, BUT Darlows gives me less and LESS every month almost not enough for me to sustain my mortage At the end of the day they are Robbing Agents dont use them.

Do not rent with Darlows!

So I got out of the hell hole that was the house that I was renting from Darlows...Notice confirmed? Had to repeatedly call and email to get confirmation of receipt.Check out process? Clueless.Exit inspection? Had to chase.Confirmation of outcome of the exit inspection? Had to chase.Since I left the property they have been handing out my personal details to new utility companies for the house that I left two months ago!On top of that, our account wasn't closed properly and I was getting sent rent arrear letters after check out!I called property management 10 times, left 4 messages and sent 5 emails. No one responds!
