AVOID FLEET MILNE AT ALL COSTS PLEASE!!

AVOID FLEET MILNE AT ALL COSTS PLEASE!!

Good: Alex Cattanach.

Bad: Reading all the reviews is actually quite a releif to myself and my wife, beacuse it confirms that we are not crazy. This was our first time renting a property and really did not know where to start, Alex really did help finding us this place. However from the very first day we moved in it was absloute hell. The flat was left in an awful state, mould, dust, fluff, hair you name it (its funny in the video everything looked so nice, that video must be from years ago) So much misscommunication from the property manager led me to believe I should just wait for bills from energy, water and council tax (Again first time renting so didnt know how it worked) after a whole month of waiting for these bills I found I am not even with the energy supplier that I was supposedly signed up to through fleet milne. This led to multiple late payments and debts with certain companies which is not a good start to renting life.

Moving on, the kitchen light was broke and we were cooking in the dark for a whole month, they had no urgency to fix it and they didnt really care it seemed. As for the kitchen lights multiple other lights kept breaking in the flat, not to mention that the power went out 7 times in total during our stay and again they just did not care.

The freezer was broken and our advice was "eat the food quickly and then defrost it" laughable really, especially after we just did a big grocery shop. They did not even care enough to send out a temporary freezer so we could actually defrost it quicker. The process of getting a replacement freezer took a month.

They are now trying to squeeze every penny from us and trying to do anything possible to keep our deposit. £234 for professional cleaning, they did not even professional clean the property before we moved in. They are trying to blame us for mould on the celing of the bathroom when there is not even ventialtion in there. We mentioned this to them in an email and they simply ignored it. They are not very truthful with the way they go about things, they dont care and all they do is say sorry which is text book customer service and to be honest you haver to say that. For all our troubles they sent an M&S gift basket for the troubles we had, not really fair considering how much we struggled.

They will read 10% of the email and ignore the rest, they lie and they just point the finger at the tennants rather than actually resolving anything. They over charge you for everything and then will do everything in their power to keep your deposit. They won't listen to reason and simply do not care about the tennants.

Please please avoid Fleet Milne at all costs.

Fleet Milne

Excellent customer care and advice provided by staff at fleet Milne. This advice included the market and sales in Birmingham alongside more detailed knowledge required for selling our apartment. Would thoroughly recommend Fleet Milne.

Yousaf’s Assistance

Within a couple minutes of speaking to Yousaf on the phone, he was able to find a property that matched my specific needs. I viewed the property with him a few days later and it was an enjoyable experience. I got the property and I can’t thank him enough.

Fantastic estate agency that conducts everything so professionally! Smooth process with every dealing and so refreshing to see such honesty within estate agency. I would not want to deal with anyone other than FleetMilne.

I rent a property in the city centre with Fleet Milne. The experience has been great so far, with the staff being helpful and responsive, especially Nicola who went above and beyond to help after a “snapped key in lock” incident.

Friendly staff, and fantastic service

Fleet Milne have managed my rental property in the City Centre over the past three years. The experience has always been fantastic, right from the start the staff are friendly and attentive, and very helpful. Initially it was the first time I had put a property on the rental market and they made the whole experience very comfortable and easy.

They keep you informed at every step of the way, and have always provided me with sound advice. They have always found the right tenant for the property in a remarkably quick time, even achieving this in the current very difficult rental climate.

I couldn’t recommend them highly enough.

Couldn't recommend Fleet Milne enough. They've been excellent in dealing with the entire process while I've been out of the county, and have kept in contact while finding me an ideal tenant. Staff and service second to none!
