Unless. I am a landlord. UPAD took my money, failed to advertise my property then failed to respond to phone calls & emails. THIS IS A FRAUDULENT COMPANY. DO NOT USE!

I agree with David below. I was a landlord and used Upad for several years very happily. They went bust, having taken £70 just a few days before to renew my tenancy agreement. I never got my money bac... See more

I don't think this is a real company it must be a scam. I enquired 3 times about a property on Rightmove and no one ever responds. The telephone number just goes to a robot with no option to actually... See more

Easy, efficient, reliable and highly professional

UPAD provides such an accessible and easy service, from initial set up of the property details to providing quick responses and information regarding tenant enquiries.
Overall, the ease of the online system makes advertising your property a dream to work with and all of the advice and articles available in the UPAD site, allows us to be reminded of some of the little things and indeed, the areas to remain compliant.
I have used this service before and the speed at which every element of getting a tenant in situ is a fabulous experience.
Thanks UPAD for an efficient, reliable and professionally run service.

Upad are a really great letting agent

Upad are a really great letting agent. They take all the hard work out of renting, but you stay in control. The fees are transparent, the staff knowledgeable, helpful and always available. A really great service

Upad are generally a decent good company. No Letting Go are terrible.

Whilst I was really impressed when I used Upad two years ago, and still remain a supporter I am really disappointed in one aspect of their business model. Their promotion of No Letting Go as a suggested Inventory Company. As a new landlord two years ago, and still one that is learning the ropes, I did not realise how poor the Inventory system this company employ is. The inventories conducted on my flat have been lacking in numerous ways.. The latest Check Out resulted in me noting over 30 areas of glaring omissions, inconsistencies and bias not to mention a brevity of detail. This will ultimately result no doubt in taking NLG to the Trading Standards on this issue. I would urge all UPAD users not to use them or certainly their Sutton Franchise as the Inventories are not fit for purpose.

Simple to use and gets results

Simple, secure site to use. Listing gets onto rightmove for a fraction of the cost of high street estate agents. As landlords we like to conduct the viewings ourself as we can select the best fit. UPAD makes the process very simple.

Notice fees are higher from last time…

Notice fees are higher from last time and seriously considering high street local agent next time. Pay more but easier to contact and better local knowledge.

Easy to set up - Great response

Easy to set up, 2nd time using them.
1st time all the pics were taken, it was quick and easy, they even helped with the ad and referencing process.
2nd time, I just logged in and all the same details were saved so I had re-advertised in a matter of minutes.

On both occasions I had 50 enquiries within 3 days.

A useful platform for advertising property

A reliable platform where you can easily view your property portfolio in one place and order services as required. I loaded data approx 18 months before it was required and it was good to know everything was ready to go when required. It takes a few hours for the ad to go live.
Tenant enquiries come through almost instantaneously on your phone by text. An email is also sent although this seems to take slightly longer, sometime sup to an hour later.

Everything I needed

Easy to use, very straightforward explanations about what you needed to do (and when) and a very helpful Help Desk. Would recommend and use again

Back in 2014 I wrote a glowing report…

Back in 2014 I wrote a glowing report for Upad on here... how times have changed!

Advertising the property is still an easy process but getting to speak with an account manager is almost impossible. Upad now uses some call answering and message transfer service who inform you that someone from Upad will contact you within 48 hours... 48 HOURS! :( I called last Friday, and as of midday Monday, I'm still waiting. This is not the first time this has happened.

Its such a shame. Upad used to be so customer driven and responsive, but not any more. As a result, I'll be looking for an alternative online estate agent in the future.

Hi there, I assure you we always put the customer at the centre of what we do.
I believe a member of the team has contacted you already and sorted this. We've now confirmed with you that we tried calling you several times and left a voicemail when we couldn't reach you.
Regards,
James

Flexible, helpful and value for money.

The thing I like about UPAD is the guidance and flexibility. They check your ad to make sure it’s sensible before it goes out, and you are able to make changes and even put the advert on hold when you’ve found prospective tenants should they fall through. I’ve been using UPAD for 5 years now and I still come back every time.
