If you value your money, time and dignity stay far away from these awful letting agents. ESPECIALLY as students! From the start, Nicholas Humphrey's sold us dreams. We were promised a clean, refurbished house for us yet when we first moved in, nothing was ready. The bedrooms had dirty mattresses, broken blinds, damp and mould on hallway ceilings, missing and broken furniture, the kitchen lino was torn and stained the list could go on - we were bewildered as to what we had paid the half rent for during july when they claimed they were doing maintenance on the house. From then, it took months for some of those things to be sorted (mainly the carpets and mattresses) and for the rest of the year we were making do with broken blinds and missing furniture. My bedroom in particular had very little privacy as a result of missing blinds, which as a female student where my many neighbours had a clear view into my bedroom window, was very distressing. Furthermore, the contractor hired for the carpets tried contacting me separately a few weeks later after the job was done, which I found highly inappropriate and frankly, scary as he knew my exact address. In October, there was a viewing for our house and we had no prior warning, which is a legal necessity! This is also a running theme from the other reviews which is shocking as to how they have managed to get away with this! Throughout the year our various complaints were dealt with extremely slowly (if at all). Our fridge was broken for over 5 months since APRIL and we sent multiple emails asking for this to be fixed yet everything was outright ignored. Nicholas Humphrey's now have the audacity to deduct the cost of replacing the fridge from our deposit. This seems to be another running theme where they attempt to keep student's deposits, when we know for sure we left the house spotless and in a much better condition than we found it. These letting agents do NOT care about you as students, as tenants and as people. They will address you in the most patronising, rude manner and will try in any way they can to exploit you once you sign their contract. Unprofessional company, awful experience.NegativeResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value
