This is the worst letting agency I can say exists. Very rude and unprofessional, they only care about money and not tenant welfare. They charge exorbitant agency fees and still charged me again when i needed to extend my tenancy. They never treat complaints and conned me on my security deposit for problems that were existent on my moving into the flat. Please avoid at all cost. Very rude staff as well.

The worst. Poorly written emails, awful communication and poor service. Genuinely the turd of Manchesters management service. If you're a student, stay away. They make university experiance of living in your own house a tiresome chore of chasing emails. I would not recommend to anyone. Also, Its worth being suspicious of the positive reviews. To have either 5* or 1* with no in between is incredibly strange. I cannot put into words how awful these guys are.

This is the 3rd house I have let. Never previously have I had such problems with a Letting agency... They are great when you look around houses but once you've committed Philip James are aweful.they are slow to respond to enquiries. The company seems very disorganized and treat students without any respect even though we pay just as much as anyone else. I would avoid at all costs! I will never use them again.

They could not care less. It is easier to be received by the King than getting a reply from them.

Landlord review: After taking Philip James to an independent ombudsman and having 6 complaints upheld, PJ were forced to pay me compensation. I subsequently asked that they apologise for all of the problems they had caused me, and wasted time. They couldn't bring themselves to apologise. I am now taking my complaint to the next level (Propertymark, the independent body that certifies they are a credible company), as a result. Shame.

Don't use this company.Bad PR obviously don't inspect a property before reletting. Pathetic staff response.

I will not be using Philip James ever again after my experience with them and I hope people reading this will do the same. When you have an issue or problem they can take up to a week to get back if at all. Emailed the wrong person (data protection breach?) and didn't include the original inventory PDF when moving out so resulted in extortionate charges which I contested to no reply... Never again.

Multiple calls, voice mails and emails. Nothing. Went to their office only to be told by an agent who could not give a toss that the property had gone. Not sure why they have a phone as they never answer. Useless

My experience was very positive. I used the service for overseas investors as I live in China. I was very impressed by a professional service. My questions were all answered. I received a special customer service with instant replies to my questions via the Wechat app (Chinese Whatsap). I would not have bought my property without the confidence i had in the agent. It is on the rental market and doing well.

Really poor service

Really poor service. during a Covid 19 crisis, they refuse to negotiate the final month's rent on a student property that cannot be used due to Universities being closed and students all sent home. This would have cost the landlord Β£300 but still they refuse to write this off to help out students. Absolutely appaulling, just shows what a business is truly like when in times of need.....
