Multiple change of sharer
Fiona, I hope you have survived the multiple change of tenants and contracts that I have put you through these last few months.It must have been one of the longest and most frustrating experiences of your career!I just want to thank you for your patience, perseverance, determination and diplomacy over the many months to finally get the process over the line.Your efforts are really appreciated.
Hi David,Thank you for your great review and we are glad to hear Fiona was so helpful and patient. If you need anything else, we would be happy to help.

Spamming forever
It has been almost a year, 5+ people told that they removed my email address from their list, but I can see that this was just a lie and they only wait for a few months instead of removing the email address and then send emails again. Don't even give your mail email address, get a temporary one and use that instead
Updated reply: Hi Barış, thank you for confirming your details. After looking into this further, we can see that you have now been added to our exclusion lists and should no longer receive further communications from us. You had previously been linked to a short let in 2023 and were registered as an applicant with us up until 13th April. This is why you would have received some emails last week. Original reply: Hi Baris, we're sorry to hear you are still receiving emails. In order for us to look into this, we have sent you a request via Trustpilot to confirm your email address. As soon as we receive this, we can check our systems to find out why you are still receiving communications from us and remove this where applicable.

My experience with Chestertons has only been saved by Kacey Naish. She has been very responsive, even on Christmas Eve. She has been patient and held my hand through a deposit dispute. She is the only reason I will probably stay a client of theirs.
Hi Safiya, we are sorry you have had a deposit dispute but are so glad Kacey has been responsive and patient. Thank you for the review.

Chestertons
Chestertons - "You don't even deserve this 1 star"I had terrible experience with this letting agency.Please find below timelines of experience which made our life stressful.Chestertons posted ad for property on 4th Oct.1)Holding deposit was transferred for renting apt. on 6th Oct.2)Referencing started on 7th Oct and was completed by 14th Oct.3)Tenancy agreement was created on 15th Nov.They took 1 month just to create tenancy agreement!!!!4)Tenancy agreement was signed by us on 17th Nov.5)Remaining deposit and 1st month rent was transferred on 18th Nov.6)They made sure that we did not visit apartment twice . We were following up for apartment viewing but they couldn’t give us appointment from 31st Oct till 18th Nov.We received call from Melis on 19th Nov. mentioning that "Even though you have passed referencing checks , we cannot rent this property to you"7)They had our approx 5000£.
Hi Amruta, we are sorry to hear of your complaint. We have reviewed the situation with the relevant team and whilst we understand you were eager to get the contract, there are certain elements and documentation required from both parties before we can complete the contracts.We're aware that you were booked in to view the property twice once you arrived in the country so this request was not ignored, however, on both occasions the current tenant cancelled due to her child being unwell. This was unfortunately out of our control as we cannot enter the property without the current tenant's consent.The current tenants advised towards the very end of their tenancy that they would not be able to vacate as they were unable to find alternative accommodation. Melis contacted you as soon as we got this news and provided evidence when you requested it, to confirm the current tenant's situation. Due to the laws in the UK, we cannot do anything to speed up the vacation process until this has gone through the courts. Melis offered the closest comparable properties that we had on the market at that time to try and assist you as we did not want to leave you without options.Our teams have checked our accounts and we can see your holding deposit was returned to you on the 21st of November and the balance was refunded on the 23rd of November.Whilst we appreciate this has been less than ideal for you and Deepak, the situation is beyond our control.

Had such a great experience with Chestertons, helpful, friendly and knowledgable staff.
Had such a great experience with Chestertons! All the staff so were knowledgable and helpful. Myha Reid, who was the main agent I was speaking with was super friendly and so helpful. I was sent a video tour of the property after the viewing which was great to look back.Also, every time I called the office, they knew the phone number and addressed me by name straight away which I thought was a great touch! By far one of the best agencies I have used.
Thank you for your review Olivia, what glowing feedback for Myha and the team! Should you need any further assistance, you know where we are. Best wishes!

As a Landlord we find that more than once they have paid rent owed to us to another persons account. Instead of instantly just paying us the outstanding money owed to us, they tell us they need to talk to the person whose account the wrongly credited. This should not be relevant to us. This is their error and they need to sort it immediately.As we pay a management fee, we should be able to expect a professional service. Disappointing and inconvenient!

WORSE THAN HELL
This is the worst agency that's ever operated in the UK. They only care about signing the tenancy agreement, after this, you can completely forget about receiving a dignified customer experience. First of all, they are able to tell you that the property you are renting has features that you've requested (such as AirCon), assure you of this through multiple emails, and even show you the AirCons through virtual tours, in cases when you are renting from abroad. Then, when you arrive at the property and the AirCons don't work, they don't fix it even after you specified that the AirCons were a MUST to rent the property. They simply laugh at your face after signing you as a client, worst customer service EVER, simply DON'T USE THEM. They ignore your messages and your calls, and they make you feel like you don't matte after paying for everything. And when you're done with your tenancy agreement? Behold, because to get your deposit back you must be a magician. I've been trying to contact them for 2 weeks, sending e-mails, calling them, in order to obtain an expected date of my deposit return, but NO ONE ANSWERS. It's exhausting and if this message can help you to avoid all the horrible situations that my flatmate and I went through, this message was completely worth it. I work with real estate in my home country, and I've never seen such a service that tends to advertise itself like it has some sort of "standard" to only receive the most horrible of services that this market has to offer. SAVE YOUR MONEY, TIME, AND PEACE OF MIND, and AVOID THIS AGENCY AT ALL COSTS.
Hi there, we are very concerned about your review and would like to investigate this matter further. In order to do so, please could you reply to our request for additional information? Once received, we will be able to look into this as soon as possible. Thank you.
