Good experience

Had a very good experience using the letting game, they were efficient with communication and it was easy to sort enquiries, viewings, and ask any questions. Sophie who we met to view our house was very kind and welcoming person who made us feel happy to use their company and safe to go ahead with accepting the house

They do very little

Never ending changes of agent, their staff turnover is very high.

After starting the process of leaving a property following the landlord selling I’d provided their details to provide a landlord reference, they claimed not to have received the email on multiple occasions. The week after this I found out they had since left, seems pretty likely they just couldn’t be bothered to deal with it before they left the company.

I’m also not sure what it is they actually do, they have a tenant portal (why can’t I just phone?) that you report any issues on and then the third parties (contractors etc) that are registered with them respond and sort out appointments for repairs, so what do the letting game actually do ?

Deposit Incorrectly Registered

My son and his five friends rented a property through The Letting Game. At the end of the tenancy there was an issue with the landlord returning the deposit. After multiple calls to The Letting Game and calls to the deposit scheme it transpired that the deposit had been incorrectly registered, five of the boys were not on the deposit certificate. The Landlord was planning on keeping the majority of the deposit (£4000) to cover works to the property, her costings were excessive and I felt the landlord was trying to make money out of these students. The property was in a poor state of repair when the boys moved in, broken furniture and the boiler constantly not working. When I brought this to the attention of the Letting Game the response I received was, I’m not sure what you want us to do. The Letting Game have an ongoing relationship with this landlord, they did not seem bothered that one of the landlord’s they do business with are illegally registering deposits. The only prove they requested from the landlord was a screenshot to say they had registered the deposit, this screenshot did not say the deposit was protected, ie no funds had been transferred and who had been registered on the deposit, they should have asked for a copy of the deposit certificate, this was never done. Now Letting Game will say this is a Let only property and it’s the responsibility of the landlord. However, they received the funds for the deposit so have duty of care to ensure the funds are registered correctly, they didn’t seem to care.
I work in Lettings and because of my knowledge I was able to get the full deposit refunded, this took two months and a lot of my time.
If you are renting through this agency please double check all your paperwork because The Letting Game will give you no support or help if it’s been done incorrectly, totally shocking behaviour from an agency.

Jessica was a breath of fresh air

I was nervous about the experience but Jessica Pritchard was amazing.

She is easy going and personable- every interaction was so easy to understand and it felt like I was speaking to someone I’d known for years.

Aside from her bubbly personality, lies a very intelligent and knowledgeable lady who is passionate about what she does and takes the time to explain how things work in a way I could understand.

I would recommend her to anyone who is looking to rent or let a property.

Anyone who has her on their team is very lucky indeed.
