Good

Honestly, I'm relieved that I found this company because before I only had companies that didn't help me, they just told me what to do or something like that, but here I am advised and told exactly how to proceed. I recommend with all confidence.

Lieber Andrei,

vielen herzlichen Dank für Ihre positive Rückmeldung! Es freut uns sehr, dass Sie sich bei uns endlich gut beraten und unterstützt fühlen – genau das ist unser Ziel.

Bei MieterEngel vermitteln wir unsere Mitglieder an erfahrene Partneranwältinnen und -anwälte, die nicht nur die Rechtslage erklären, sondern auch konkret aufzeigen, wie man am besten vorgeht. Schön, dass Sie diese Unterstützung als hilfreich empfunden haben.

Vielen Dank für Ihr Vertrauen und Ihre Weiterempfehlung!

Mit freundlichen Grüßen
Ihr MieterEngel-Team

Terrible

Terrible, I'm not even sure that they have real lawyers...you pay too much for text which you can become for free from chatgpt or Gemini...absolutely no help and 0 emphaty...

Liebe Maja,

vielen Dank, dass Sie sich die Zeit genommen haben, Ihre Erfahrung mit uns zu teilen. Es tut uns sehr leid, dass Sie unzufrieden sind und ebenso, dass unsere Antwort erst jetzt erfolgt.

Leider können wir Ihrem Namen kein Mitgliedsprofil zuordnen und Ihren Fall daher nicht im Detail prüfen. Wir würden Ihr Anliegen jedoch sehr gerne nachvollziehen und gemeinsam mit Ihnen eine Lösung finden.

Wir möchten betonen, dass bei MieterEngel ausschließlich erfahrene Rechtsanwältinnen und Rechtsanwälte arbeiten, die auf Mietrecht spezialisiert sind. Viele von ihnen führen zusätzlich den Titel Fachanwalt/Fachanwältin für Miet- und Wohnungseigentumsrecht. Sie können diese Informationen selbstverständlich auch gerne eigenständig nachrecherchieren.

Eine Mitgliedschaft bei MieterEngel bietet zahlreiche Vorteile: Unsere Mitglieder können sich zu allen Mietrechtsthemen beraten lassen – sei es bei Mängeln, Nebenkostenabrechnungen oder Fragen zu Mietverträgen. Im Vergleich zu einer Beratung in einer Kanzlei vor Ort ist unsere Unterstützung in der Regel deutlich günstiger und umfangreicher.

Bitte melden Sie sich direkt telefonisch oder per E-Mail bei unserem Kundenservice – wir würden uns sehr freuen, Ihren Fall noch einmal individuell zu prüfen und gemeinsam eine zufriedenstellende Lösung zu finden.

Freundliche Grüße
vom MieterEngel-Team

The team and the lawyer is really helpful. Waiting times to connect to the customer support is quite low. Yes, it takes a couple of days for the lawyer to respond but that’s normal owing to the amount of rental issues.

I joined the association because I…

I joined the association because I trusted the association's advertisement "answer within 48 hours" and by the time I was under time pressure to sign a contract and wished to have an answer explicitly about whether the latest Berlin's Mietdecke would apply to my rental contract.

But no. I got a reply only after 3 days. And the reply was simply picking out typos from my contract. Typos! Why on earth would I need to hire a lawyer to pick out typos? I can very well hire another editor for such work.

With despair, I immediately asked for a refund and termination of my membership, which is also guaranteed on their T&Cs for such request submission within 14 days since the contract's start. However, Mieterengel declined my request arguing that I "used" their service. Despite that's not the service they're advertising for (professional legal advice within 48 hours) but a service of only picking out typos after 3 days of waiting in line.

In the end, we came to a mutual compromise that they'll release me from the two-year contract binding but they'll keep the first year's fee. Which, to my dismay, I still accepted. Until just now, I realized they didn't only keep my 79 EUR's fee for the first year, they also terminated all the rights I have to the first year's membership, which I already paid for.

Long story short, I paid 79 EUR for a one-time "service" and got 0 help, except for the typos picked out.
