I think your customer service is great

I think your customer service is great. I issued a complaint that I had been wrongly charged and detailed what happened to Ron who eventually helped me get a partial refund while explaining to me the terms on which the charge was made. He was kind, professional, and patient, and thanks to him I received the partial refund yesterday.

Returns

I didn't read the terms and conditions of my subscription to rentola.ca and they started charging my account. I contacted rentola for help and Rohn was very attentive and kind to me and helped me solve the problem. Thank you Rohn for your help, you helped me a lot. P.S. Always read the terms of your subscription carefully and you will not be in an awkward position. If you need to find a place to live quickly, check out rentola.ca

NEVER.

don’t use this. 90% of the properties are fake and they hid how much you will ACTUALLY pay for this pretty well. seriously just use kijiji this is a waste of money. edit. judging by the other review posted after mine i will be calling my credit card company in the morning to inform them of this unauthorized $55 charge they are trying to make. DONT DO THIS THEY WILL TRY TO TAKE YOUR MONEY FOR NO GOOD REASON.

this business is absolutely desperate for me to change this review. news flash i won’t. they shouldn’t need their customers to check if their adds are scams, they should be doing this before they even allow them to be posted. stop contacting me this is just making me more mad about the absolutely poor service this website provides.

The step/phase-structured company/website

I came across this company while being in desperate search of an urgent rental place for me and my husband. The website seemed to be very helpful with our this need. As per this website, in order to be able to contact the landlords, one had to subscribe and make an instant payment of CAD$2.00. It seemed to be a small for such a well-equipped company with a large clientele. But it turned out, that this initial subscription won't give me access to landlords:(. Now, I was supposed to upgrade my status to VIP for another payment. That was when I got mad and contacted this website, having decided that it was a fishy and untrustworthy one. I was pleasantly surprised by getting the prompt reply and professional customer support from this company/website, along with the refund as was requested.

Hi ,

Thank you very much for your review!

We are happy to hear that you are satisfied with our services.

We understand that you were not fully aware that you created a subscription on our website, which led to your account being charged for the renewal of the subscription. In our terms and conditions, which needs to be accepted before payment verification, it is clearly stated that there is a trial period and afterwards you are charged standard price for each subscription period until you choose to cancel the subscription.

Have a great day!

Beautiful Pics & Detailed Descriptions

Beautiful pics on your site with very detailed descriptions of each unit. I'm a Senior & haven't figured out how to check for new offerings as they all seem to look the same when they come through. I'm also trying to figure out how to receive them once per week & not so many daily. But I love your buildings & units you have. I'm hoping to apartment show this summer...thx

My property was fraudulently posted.

I am an investor and real estate broker. My property was posted on Rentola fraudulently and I contacted the website about it by finding the posting and reporting it as fraudulent. They did not respond, so I paid the $2 required fee to contact the fraudster directly to remove my property. Then Rentola demanded I pay a $55 membership fee after they repeatedly did not respond to my emails and complaints. Rentola went as far as to send me daily 2am collection emails stating they would send their claim to Collections!! The gal of this company is inspiring! I would not be surprised if half of the properties listed are fake.

Great customer service experience

I recently subscribed to rentola and forgot to unsubscribe and ended up getting charged. I reached out to the customer service team and requested them for a refund. I was served by Naomi who efficiently and promptly processed my refund. I found the experience to be very seamless.
