Considering how little work these people seem to do, it constantly amazes me that they will always charge a ‘fee’ when any bloody thing needs doing i.e. basically their job.
I live in a shared property with 2 others, we are on a joint 12 month contract and due to a new job offer I have to move out with 4 months remaining.
I have gone to the trouble of finding a replacement tenant to join the others & see out the contract, ensured everything is sorted – They have paid a £50 admin fee… But now the agency want £150 out of me for leaving the contract. What for? The principle? I could understand it, if I was just walking away – But considering I did all the work in finding a new tenant (and their £50 fee covered the admin) are they just trying to pull a fast one? Gah!
Rant over, feel a bit better.
