Scam and neglect

Really wish I could give a negative star review, but this is as low as I can go. I have waited almost 2 months since leaving for my deposit to be sorted out, and I have not heard a response in 2 weeks regarding this despite continued attempts to get in contact. And they try to scam you out of part of your deposit under the guise of a mattress cleaning fee, because "oh students will never fight back on it", even though the mattress didn't need cleaning (their own words from their own reports). It is extremely predatory and abusive. While letting, our "emergency" problems (such as having a broken fire escape door) were left unattended for months. I do not recommend this experience to anybody, and I would always say to stay very very far away from Loc8Me.

Viewing with Josh

We had Josh show us round our house for next year and he was so lovely. There were some issues getting in some of the rooms because the current tenants locked them but he was so apologetic and lovely. He also was really helpful with questions we had and helping try to solve some paperwork issues.
