Mike mentioned £130 for move out. I just add that they charge £240 for move in. Indeed, modern day pirates. Also, they show no concern or sympathy to students. If you're intl student or manual worker or single parent, even worse. If you're vulnerable or ignorant of rent market rules, it's your fault, not theirs. Best properties always go to those privileged and those who have first-hand info. They don't care about your being desperate to find a new home.
The worst letting agent I have ever come across, really ever so poor shall not be recommending the bloody service or indeed using them again awful. They only try to make money of someone's misery of finding urgent accommodation or moving houses.
The property I am renting is riddled with black mould and damp and Breckon and Breckon will not help me, I first reported it 9 months ago and have had to chase them up so much since and they’ve still not sorted it. Completely non-existent property management. They are so slow moving it’s unbelievable, you have to chase them and remind them ten times before they do anything, it takes them weeks to do it, and they have left me living in an extremely mouldy damp flat with a small child putting our health at risk for months on end! I would not recommend unfortunately they clearly don’t care about their tenants health.
Hi Li Yao Huang - We are concerned to have received your one star review and want to find out why you we're unsatisfied with our service. As there is no comment we would really appreciate if you could get in touch with our Customer Service Manager, Lousie Passfield at louise@breckon.co.uk
Avoid this place at all cost! I am not very convinced with the positive reviews here.
would never rent via Breckon & Breckon again: incredibly friendly and quick when in process of getting you as tenant, but tone of interaction changes considerably as soon as you sign the tenancy agreement. Got really fed up with being treated arrogantly and unprofessionally. Too many differnet people interacting about different things without knowing what other´s told me. I had to move out earlier due a change in my life situation, we had agreed on an earlier move out date, I paid the breaking-early-fee, agency started viewings; three months later I was told that landlord had changed his mind and I can not move out earlier; because the agency had not drawn up a deed of surrender there was nothing I could do. cost me 2 months rent plus council tax. But not even an apology from their side. Upon return of the keys, incredibly unfriendly receptionist who in Covid-times made me wait in a room full of employees without masks to fill in a form with my data that they have anyway.
Money orientated and regimental letting agency with belittling attitude: - hefty moving in fee - repeated fees for every contract extension (only effort involved is changing a date on the previous paperwork) - after initial first year, every extension needs to be for another 12 months with no earlier exit possible without paying full 12 months rent - compulsory for tenant to take out and pay for additional 'tenants liability insurance' policy - moving out fee - final inspection visit done by external company whose fees need to be paid by tenant
Terrible. Three hours late to a viewing and didn't apologise or call up to give me notice. Just kept on saying we'll be there in 5 minutes. Then said that my offer for a place was accepted and only after I had stopped looking for other places told me that it was a mistake and it wasn't actually accepted. Signed on to live at another place and moved in without the furnishings that was promised and had to wait a month for it. Currently living there with a broken window that I notified them about four months and ago and nothing has been done about it yet. Terrible. UPDATE: The window still remains broken despite constant reminders. It has now been more than a year...
