DO NOT RENT FROM THIS AGENCY!!!!! Where do I start. First of all a few days into the letting we were left with no heating or hot water FOR THREE DAYS and when we tried to get through to the landlord/lady she inconveniently could not be reached until threatened not to pay rent. A violation of human privilege. I left the property almost 9 months ago and I am frequently receiving messages and calls from bailiffs and water companies telling them I owe them money and that they will stain my credit score if I do not pay, which whitegates also said they would cover. The fact they have accessibility to me means they breached data-protection by disclosing my name, personal address and date of birth etc.. There is no way they should have my details as I never signed a contract with any company other than whitegates. Whitegates is a truly pathetic agency with no regards for it's tenants, especially students. Plenty more happened which I would be happy to disclose to anyone who would like to get in touch. Please do not use this agency, you run at your own risk if you do and they have left over £1,000 of debt which companies are now saying I am liable for which include water bills (which whitegates should cover as stated In the contract and if we go over the limit we pay the money directly to whitegates) and Council tax (which students are exempt from) Again, DO NOT USE THIS AGENCY Edit: Seen the response 1st- My main concern is not the outstanding bills, but it was the fact I was not able to get someone to repair heating and hot water for three days, even when persisting with calling them. 2nd- Water bill WAS included for the year I was there and whenever we had gone over the limit we were provided, the estate agent at WHitegates said Whitegates themselves would contact us but here I am a year later getting a call from a different water company I have never heard of and that I never signed a contract with calling my phone saying I owe money. Also if Data Protection was not breached then how would they get my number and know my address? I do not need to speak to anyone to rectify anything as I have paid everything to do with Whitegates, the only company I signed a contract with. I just want anyone reading to look at other Letting agencies as they are more likely to provide a better service than this one.
