GoogleMy experience with the agency has been terrible. Despite complaints and processing issues via the proper route nothing was ever done. They don’t care about the tenants, you complain and they just say we’ve informed the landlord and then just keep asking if anything has been done. They also backtrack on what they say. First told me if the landlord doesn’t fix it they will then said I have to do it myself. Would not recommend!!!

GoogleI had my property on the market with this agent for 3 months from June 2025.
The experience was absolutely shocking and diabolical. What was promised at the beginning of the valuation was the total opposite of what was experienced.
They were very unprofessional, inconsistent and was hard to get any feedback or follow-up from any viewings unless I went out of my way to call them myself repeatedly.
The staff were rude and unprofessional especially one in particular.
They would also let anyone come to view, even if they couldn't afford the property or even if they didn't have their property on the market themselves without doing any checks and also didn't try at all to sell the property. It always was really hard to get through to the agents. Would have to call upto 6 times before you even got through.
Avoid this agent as they don't keep to their promises and won't try their best at all other then wanting to have a board outside your property to advertise their business.
You also need a month's notice to come out of contact so be aware and keep away from them!

GoogleTheir maintenance team entered my flat without notice or consent, locking the door behind them and leaving me locked out for two days. I had no access to my home, personal belongings, or medication, and was forced to find temporary shelter overnight.
Repeated calls for help were ignored, and the lack of responsibility or urgency shown afterward was unacceptable. Entering a tenant’s property without permission is a serious breach of trust, privacy, and basic professional standards.
If management had handled communication properly, this distressing situation could have been avoided entirely. I hope this review encourages them to take tenant safety, respect, and accountability more seriously in the future.

GoogleThis is really unfortunate and unfair. You clearly informed them well in advance and followed the instructions given by their own staff, including returning the keys in good faith. Blaming tenants later instead of taking responsibility for internal miscommunication is not acceptable. I hope this gets resolved properly, and others should definitely be cautious and ensure everything is documented in writing.

GoogleRecently visited this business to see about letting my home when I emigrate at the end of January. From the moment I walked in I already knew this wasn't the agent for me as everyone looked so scruffy. No one was in a rush to acknowledge me and the person I eventually spoke to didn't seem to know their stuff in any detail, despite being a manager. I need peace of mind when I leave my keys with someone and they need to be an expert otherwise I may as well just use Open Rent. The place seemed to be run by school leavers and I couldn't recommend a business like this sadly.

All the process was very smooth, their advice, cooperation and coordination was examplery.The staff I was engaged with starting from Oliver Snookes, Lottie Philps and Chelsea are all stars .

GoogleMe (Vineed) and my wife (Divya) had an amazing experience with Frank Innes, Leicester. We had so much trouble in getting our mortgage application approved. Both the mortgage application process and the conveyancing took long time and all along the journey towards our new home, Frank Innes was with us shoulder to shoulder. The Leicester branch manager Gemma was superbly splendid in liasoning between us and the seller of the property. Had it not been Gemma's timely intervention during our mortgage crisis, we wouldn't have been able to purchase this house. Another Leicester branch staff - Amelia has also been very helpful.
On the whole, we are overwhelmed by the service we have received from Frank Innes Leicester, and we extend our sincere gratitude towards them in helping us to secure our dream property. Furthermore, we honestly recommend this property agent to all those who are looking forward to buying the property of their taste and choice.
Thank you very much indeed,

GoogleI was rejected by Frank Innes for renting due to the fact I'm on a combination of part time work and disability benefits which I have no choice to claim due to my health. The combination easily met the affordability. I was left a voicemail basically saying they couldn’t cover people on any sort of benefits and was subsequently promised a callback but did not get one. Tough times for anyone with a disability these days to get taken seriously unfortunately. Discrimination is a huge problem and Shelter are currently pushing the Renters Reform bill to prevent this from happening.

GoogleI recently had the misfortune of working with Frank Innes that was absolutely terrible. From start to finish, my experience with this company was an absolute nightmare. Since the start I was able to feel a bit of uncertainty and not willingness to help when they decided to handover the property without cleaning the property. They decided to do a rush clean after we insisted that it was really bad to start living on. When I moved into the property, we noticed several discrepancies that were not mentioned in the inventory. There was mould on the ceilings, dead flies and leftover food in the fridge, and light bulbs that were not working. We immediately informed the agency about these issues, even providing them with pictures and videos. However, they failed to take any action and instead charged us for these pre-existing problems.
Things started to get worse, as for every single query (for e.g. some electrical circuits weren't functioning properly) Frank Innes (who was our first point of contact and the only point) wouldn't have an answer to it and always instructed us to find a solution by our own. But, the most cruel and unethical thing of all happened during the checkout (after fulfilling our contract for 6 months), when they decided to deduct a lump sum of money from our Tenant holding deposit for maintenance. We were charged unethically and wrongfully for all the deeds we were not accountable for, and of course Frank Innes weren't answering any of our queries, It was done by some other building services(Country Wide Property) company and Frank Innes had no clue/ answer to our queries whatsoever. The agent at one point told me that I could challenge the deposit deduction and I would still lose as they a have built a solid case for the Landlord to win and me to fail (clearly indicating nothing ethical was done, they just wanted to do the proposed deductions anyway. Even they charged us for lights that were already mentioned as not working in the inventory. Though we replaced the not working bulbs with working bulbs and it worked fine until we moved out, but they still charged us for it. The agent and the Landlord would review the "before and after property status sheet" and wouldn't answer our proposals/ queries but would say "The Landlord has a strong hand in winning the dispute"
I never thought, I would do a negative review on a firm/ Letting agent as I had a thought that most of them are the same. But after my recent experiences experiences with other letting agents were wonderful and really put Frank Innes to shame and I genuinely consider my time with Frank Innes a misfortune and I wish I would go back in time and change it.
Yes, The staff are friendly and responsive but not efficient and ethical in my case.
I do have all the screenshots and documents of all the conversations and unfair deductions respectively. Even I have the photos and videos of the property on the day we moved in which we showed to Frank Innes at beginning and I have the pictures which I took when we are moving out from the property. I don't want to post it publicly but I can provide them if needed.
(Property - Flat 115, The Exchange Building; Aug 2022 - Feb 2023)
Stay away from Frank Innes Agency and property management of The Exchange "Country Wide Property Agency" and Landlord "Tiger Investments 4 Ltd" if you want to avoid being overcharged for pre-existing issues.

Agent replied · 28 May 2023
Hi Sai, Thank you for your review, all deposits are independently adjudicated by the relevant deposit scheme and Frank Innes would have no control over the outcome. As the agent, we have the responsibility to communicate between all parties, however would not be in a position to raise a deduction as we are not the landlord. Kind regards, Scott @ Customer Care
