Your professionalism, knowledge, and attention to detail were truly outstanding. From the moment we connected, you were prompt in responding and accommodating to my schedule, which made the entire process effortless. Your friendly and enthusiastic demeanour throughout our interaction made me feel comfortable and valued as a client.

GoogleI am absolutely disgusted with the service we have had with Gatekeeper while renting with them for 9 months. It has been awful. Not only were we left without heating or hot water for over 5 days between November and December, I was then gaslighted over the phone by a member of their team, telling me I was threatening to withhold rent for our final 18 days at the property, when I had asked 3 times to be sent the figure of how much we owed for those last 18 days and they had failed to send me the figure - I wasn't withholding rent I just hadn't been told how much to pay. That member of staff was consistently rude over the phone, would mumble under their breath at the end of phone calls, was patronising to me and my partner and we feel it was because we are a young couple and first time renters (I have rented on my own before and never received such bad service). For example we both passed the credit checks but were told we still had to have a guarantor, which I feel was due to our age. On one occasion I caught footage of an employee affiliated with them unlocking our door and walking into our house without even knocking to see if we were home first. I had been home just a few minutes before showering. They have completely ruined our first time renting together. We had moved out before our tenancy ended due to having no hot water and heating, so went back to clean the property before we left our keys (we had cleaned once when we moved our belongings out so it would be clean for their viewings). Upon entering the house it smelt like urine, and I found they had used the toilet and not flushed it, making the house smell like stale urine whilst we were still paying for it. The lack of care they had for us is appalling. I would never rent from Gatekeepers again. If I could give them 0 stars I would. They are an unprofessional, overall bad company. Avoid at all costs.

Hi Niamh, I’m so sorry that you have not been happy with your experience with us. Thank you for taking the time to talk this situation through with me.
As discussed your insurance policy does cover accidental damage for your landlord’s fixtures and fittings, so I have briefed the insurance company that you will be in touch to progress with your claim.
I am disappointed that you remain unhappy with the service that you have received but if I can be of further assistance please do not hesitate to get in touch. Kind Regards, Phil Kendall

GoogleCowboys who always side with the landlords; will inconveniently schedule checks to take pictures of the flat and be guaranteed to be pelted with a hefty bill at the end of the tenancy regardless of the state of the flat. The main reason for their 4.6 rating is because they hassle people should you leave a real review. Avoid if you’re a tenant, great for landlords
