Me and my roommates were a little nervous because we saw soon poor reviews online but two of our classmates told us to ignore them because they had good experience. We took a chance because they are there only company having this large apartment that we needed in the area. We were there for 12 months and have received our deposit only the professional cleaning fee was deducted and we were even allowed to leave our furnitures without charge. I remembered to leave the review because my friend asked me why I used this agency after all the bad reviews. I think more people with good experience can leave review but forgot. I can surely recommend again.... Read more

I came to the UK to start my Master's and was recommended Foxtons by some classmates. They made me wait for several days and eventually I found Idasons who were recommended by the concierge by if the building I wanted. They were swift and showed me three properties in the building. They also helped me negotiate a lower rent with the landlord and more furnishings like a study desk and chair which was essential for me. I would certainly use them again.... Read more

Hired this agent for letting + management service for 14% of the annual rent. The full management service manager is very slow and irresponsive, in the end it is no difference to managing the flat and the tenant on your own. This agent also charges a lot of fee, hidden in small text as per service agreement. For example, £420 for a very standard AST (tenancy agreement), £150 inspection fee (dont even think they checked the flat because there was many issues with the flat that was not noticed until raised by tenant), £250- £500 Maintainance float for repairing the flat if need (and no you would not get refund for this automacially and generally speaking, I feel like they just want you to forget about it). After all those fees, I was only getting like 80% of the total rent.. All in all, very terrible value for money. The managers feel very shady and dishonest compared to other well-known real estate companies. The quality of the tenant they found was bad. Never never again. Please stay away from this agent unless you have too much money and want to get ripped off.... Read more

Dont fall for this scam, they will hold you deposit and wont even respond to you. You will get everything broken in the apartment and there will be no one to fixed it. While my stay there were so many issues like one of the window was broken, the fridge didnt work from day 1. Also they dont even bother fixing it. Theres so many better places to stay, please avoid this one if you want to live in peace.... Read more

Where to start. This agency is beyond disgusting. I'm in the UK from abroad and the sketchy agent decided to start the tenancy a week before I arrived. That's despite me informing this character repeatedly that I won't even touch down in the UK until mid August. Excuse - "we need to escalate things". He seems to be a fan of the word "escalate" and I really wonder if he even knows what it means. I suspect it's because the flat had been empty for over a month and they were desperate to have someone fill it. After all, I was asking to move it back by one week, and if that wasn't going to work, that's OK. Just tell me that that's a no go and I would've found something else. That should've been a red flag, but I needed to secure a place before arriving so I said, "whatever" and sent through the monies, which was the security deposit plus several months' rent up front as apparently that's sometimes the case for not having a UK-based guarantor and that's totally fine, I can respect that. For some interesting reason, the funds took nearly two weeks to arrive after I sent them, which is really odd as I sent much larger sums from abroad and it cleared quickly with other companies. Probably that was a way to tell me NOT to go with that property and company as my bank held up the money for some time, but silly me, I didn't listen to my intuition. Arrived and the place was disgusting, hair clogging the drains, smelly clothes in the laundry room, dishwasher area clogged with old food, etc. And things were broken left and right, including lights not working, shower leaking, intercom, and door handle to the balcony. I had to get it cleaned just to even live there because the thought of showering in a shower that was clogged with some random people's hair is just beyond gross, plus the smell from the laundry room was nauseating. Anyway, I decided to just give it a go, despite being given the runaround by the equally obnoxious landlord who would make up the stupidest excuses for not attending to repairs. It took until December just to get the shower looked at and there were all these crazy stories about contractors "disappearing", "not being a nice person" and other tomfoolery. Sometimes I just had to laugh because it was beyond anything I've heard. The final straw was getting hurt because of the leaking shower. So I decided to look at other options. Gave notice, well over a month, as I knew that I'd have to negotiate and pay something, which was totally fine with me as I did sign a contract. The letting agent flips out and starts carrying on about CCJs and affecting my visa, plus making sure I got a negative review to block me from moving. Guess that clown can't read or understand basic English either, because I never said in my email I wasn't going to pay anything. I was simply notifying them both of intent to break the lease with enough time so we could come to a resolution. Plus getting a CCJ doesn't just happen overnight, and moreover, who is he to assume anything about my visa when he has no idea my immigration situation, plans regarding staying or leaving the UK, and what countries I have citizenship of. Thankfully I've found a new place and it's been like night and day dealing with another company, where everything has been very smooth from start to finish. Everything was outlined and explained in full by the letting agent, and the move-in date was discussed and agreed upon that suited me and the landlord best - in this case, I was looking to move in ASAP but we had to move the date back a bit, which was totally fine as we'd discussed it. I'd strongly advise all people, especially those coming from abroad to AVOID Idasons at all costs. They lie, try to make stupid threats, tell the most outrageous stories and not surprisingly, deal with sketchy landlords who can't get their place listed with more reputable companies.... Read more
