im pretty sure you can persue the unpaid rent through county court (small claims).
if the tennant wont play ball, and ends up with a ccj for not paying rent, it pretty much scuppers them when they do finally go to another agent and try to rent another property. messes up trying to get affordable credit too.
thats assuming that the agents are doing the correct checks.
not all agents are bad though. as a contractor, i do repairs for a couple of agents locally and they are on the ball.
