Bad experience with Whitegates Huddersfield. Rented a house for 11 months.. return of the Deposit. First they said that there are items in the shed, but these were here before I moved in ( luckily I had prove) I had the house cleaned (end of tenancy ) before I moved out, but they still had things to add on their final report. (Grass to long and to wet) , dust on sideskirts, oven greasy, items behind radiator, bathroom needs professional cleaning etc. I really think the final inspector of whitegates did something or used some old photos because the property was cleaned and they didn't let me see what they had noticed and this makes me suspicous. Even the landlord said that the property was in a bad condition but I had it in a better condition than the property was when we moved in. Ok. But what happend next just makes me mad. Me my spouse and 2 little childeren came home and noticed that there was no power, strange as it was there were lights but nothing in the sockets, so the fridge/freezer was off. I had checked the electric meter and called scottishpower but they had no problems in the area. So I called the landlord and explained. Well after a photo exchange he found out that a switch was disabled and after enable it everything worked but after a while the power went out again. We found out that there was a water leaking through the ceiling and the landlord didn't want to sent someone out because of the sunday rate and someone would come monday. I have 2 kids and there was water dripping through the smokealarm and the best thing ( safest) things was to disable it and disconnect it. Now whitegates and the landlord want to charge me money for this. 288 pounds!! I saved them fire hazards. I even had viewings done for whitegates so the property would let soon after we left( sometimes 4 viewings a day) Total of 13 viewings in 5 days sometime the agent of whitegates didn't even come and I had to show the future tenants around. Wel whitegates all smiley faces and kind behaviour untill they have to return the deposit money. Never in my life whitegates again. I had rented through agency before and never had deal with things like this. Greedy people who wants to eat some of the deposit money.

Dear Nabeela, There are two sides to every story. We do not manage your property nor do we have any financial gain in obtaining any deposit. As you are aware the house was not left in the condition it was given to you. The DPS will adjudicate in the matter as that is where the deposit is held.
