It gives me depression

UPDATE: Another month has passed but all they did is to sent another (the fifth if not the sixth) contractor to take the measurements again and again of the faulty heater. When will they have it fixed? I don’t know. Am I freezing to death? Almost. Did they ignored my other requests in the past month? Yes. I tried to have things fixed/replaced at my cost but according to Dexters that would need the landlord’s approval. And I’m never having that approval. So they won’t fix things for me and won’t allow me to fix things for myself. Wow. And thank you customer relationship team for spelling my name wrong. I know you don’t care about the tenants at all but you could at least pretend?ORIGINAL REVIEW:So I rent through Dexters South Kensington, everyone seemed nice but nothing is working. The flat is managed by Dexters.The many things on the inventory were missing on the first day. I tried to email them to update it. One month later, nothing was done about it and not a single person cared to reply my email. I also tried to call their management team but it was not helpful either.The flat was 'professionally cleaned' as agreed on the offer. The flat had a funky smell after the 'professional cleaning'. And the bathroom wall had many dark brown stains on it that I had to clean it myself. The wardrobe was filled with used unwashed towels and sheets (five large boxes of those), which was almost a biohazard. It was agreed on the offer that these things should be removed. After me emailing and calling them for two weeks, they finally agreed that I can throw those rubbish away. And, of course, I had to pay for the rubbish removal myself.One of the three heaters was broken when I moved in. So I contacted their maintenance team in early August, hoping it could be repaired before summer ends. Now, two months later, it's almost the end of October and I'm still waiting for the landlord's approval to have it repaired. Not to mention many other faulty items that are in desperate need of being repaired.With that being said, most of their staff do sound very nice and decent on the phone. But it's just that nothing is working. Everything in the flat is on the edge of falling apart if not already so. With all these struggles, I feel my life is also falling apart. After renting through them, all the struggles trying to have things repaired ended in nothing. I have no ways to ask for help. No matter who I contact: the management team or the maintenance team, nothing can be done. I don't know what's so difficult. And I pay £475 per week for a flat like this.

Apartment destroyed under their management

My apartment has been in the family since 1988. It was given to Dexters a year ago on a full management contract, they had supposedly vetted the prospective tenant, the tenants partner assaulted the tenant the police kicked the door breaking the lock to get access, arrested the partner. The tenant also had a large dog in the apartment which I abd the Managing agents requested Dexters to ask the tenant to remove, the apartment carpet, walls and wood work were destroyed by the tenant, the tenant did not pay the council tax, water charges, electricity or tv license. After the flat was vacated by the tenant, dexters rented out the flat immediately without informing me of the damage to the flat then requested I pay £1500 for repairing the walls and woodwork and over £1900 for a new carpet to replace the carpet destroyed by the large dog.Avoid Dexters at all costs, they are a property management company that operates at a substandard level. Look elsewhere. They only have their own interests ate heart and do not care at all about the landlords interests.I've left messages the last 2 days but no call back, they have my number, making money is their primary aim, landlords interests do not feature. Its affected my health.

Very disappointed!

Very disappointed!It took them 33 days to tell me they are going to return part of my deposits. I emailed back said i will enter dispute process because the deposit claim is not reasonable, but they told me the time frame to dispute is within 10days of end of tenancy.:)Since i moved out i kept chasing for an answer but they delayed response till 33days later. And they claim they did professional cleaning to the flat, and they charge it to my deposit. But the truth is, i already booked professional end of tenancy cleaning service when i moved out and physically inspected the cleaning was done.I do not get why should I pay for a duplicated cleaning service. And why i should accept the outcome that their ignorance lead to missed the dispute time frame of 10 days.In a word, if you are looking for flat to rent, i highly recommend, do not use Dexters.

Had a wonderful experience with Megan (lettings agent). Did not eventually proceed with Dexter's (due to dream property being listed with another agent), but I had a very pleasant experience. Megan was friendlier and more helpful than any other agent I dealt with.

Would not recommend at all

Would not recommend at all! Typical agency, rude and better than anyone else. Got a rent reduction 3 months ago and they keep saying they are dealing with it and refunding the over payment. They didn’t and now blaming us! Direct debits bounced due to this and they think it has nothing to do with them. If this was the other way round and me not paying it would be a totally different story. I’m lucky I’m in a position to move money around but that is only the last few years.. back when I started renting I would be in trouble! Dexters think they are above anyone else and other peoples circumstances. They could not care less! I ask everyone not to use or move away from this company. Let’s think about how people starting out would be suffering right now.

bad experience throughout stay

I have moved out for one month but they still did not refund my deposit even if I have chased for 5 times!The response on repairment and maintainence request was super slow during my stay. It took 5 months for them to fix the blinds! I could not turn on lights during evenings because there was no blinds!And they arrange views with very short notice before my moving out date. Very bad experience. PLS give my deposit back ASAP when you read this comment, Dexters!

I have worked with many agents over the years, in both sales and lettings. Most of the time, they completely drop you like a hot potato the second the sale is complete. Michael has gone way above and beyond, even after the sale went through. He has gone out of his way to help and ensure all parties are happy. I very highly recommend him to anyone looking for a good agent, and definitely would work with him again in the future.PositiveQuality, Professionalism

Great job by Candy and Piers in getting my recent offer accepted. They were both professional throughout the negotiation and keep me posted with vendor feedback; now looking forward to moving speedily through the conveyancing process to completion and fully expect Candy and Piers to excel in this area as well. Update: I completed a few days ago on Friday and without a word of a lie, I owe the smooth sailing to completion to Candy. She as been nothing short of BRILLIANT throughout this process. As a professional investor have worked in property for over 20 years and deal with literally dozens of agencies and 100s if not 1,000s of agents and I really consider Candy to be the best ! No job was too big or small for her, she was super responsive and possesses a can do attitude that makes any buyer know that his or her purchase is in safe hands. Once I have some more funds saved up, I will no doubt be calling Dexters and Candy to find me my next property.PositiveResponsiveness, Professionalism

Mid pandemic move? A breeze! I was very lucky to work with Harry on my move, and everything was done in the absolute record time of 6 days - only 5 days after viewing the apartment!!! If you're an expat with good credit / a good job elsewhere, you really want to work with an agent that will represent you properly to the landlord. Dexters did that for me - other agencies told me I'd need a guarantor, which shouldn't be the case with a good job and solid credit. It was an absolute pleasure working with Harry - try to get a viewing with him. He is very personable, straight forward, super knowledgable and responds to everything quickly - even manic last minute requests were accommodated. On a separate note, I enjoyed working with someone who is very professional but still has some banter and made my mid pandemic move the most pleasant one yet.

Spammers

Spammers. Went in there to look at flats, they took all my info, never helped me find a flat, but they do keep on spamming me (weekly emails) with random flats. I tried unsubscribing, didn't work cause their address is not valid. This is against GDPR by the way.
