Easily the worst, rudest company I've ever had the displeasure of dealing with. We were lied into a property by one of their agents, asked on the day of moving if we would reschedule to another day, left without electric of warm water for the first 5 days in the property, left without any heating over the months of November-January, all in a property with no locking door, no regard for fire safety, an infestation of silverfish due to escalating damp issues, and a multitude of other problems. It got so bad, we contacted the council, and they served an improvement notice on Streets Ahead. By the time I left the property, the work still was not done. The last time I posted a public review, my girlfriend and I were threatened with our tennancy to remove the review, one of the several times we were yelled at, threatened and manipulated by these low-lives simply for tellling them there were problems that needed sorting. As it stands, I have just issued legal proceedings against Streets Ahead to get my tennancy deposit back. They refuse to give it to me, citing many excuses which I can prove to be lies with dated photographs of the state of the property when I moved in (including a human poo in the bathroom). They have since refused to respond to any contact I attempt to make, and have left no option but to take them to court. I must encourage you, whatever you do, do not rent from these lying, careless conmen.
Unacceptable.

Aug 11, 2017Sounds almost identical to my experience including refusing to release my damage deposit and stopping contact. I've started a single claim and will be seeking small claims in the future

May 18, 2018My sentiments exactly! Streets Ahead is the worst estate agent I have ever delt with. Horrible company stay away and I'm a Landlord! They took 6 months to hand over the tenants deposit for me to submit to a deposit scheme. They are running an absolutely terrible business. Stay away for your own sake not worth the trouble.

Kindly note that legally, letting agents need to publish information about their tenancy fees, government-approved redress schemes and client money protection schemes on their website and on third party websites (on which agents are listed). For properties to lease/rent in England, agents need to keep this information up to date and precise on allAgents or specify within the property description.

Streets Ahead Croydon provides very un-professional service. After leaving the apartment for more than 2 weeks, they do not refund my deposit nor tell me any deduction. They do not respond to emails for follow up. They do not have the courtesy to team people fairly. The property managers do not... Read Full Review

Dishonest people at Street Ahead Croydon. Took reservation fee of £350. The document given clearly says if you should change your mind and we have already referenced you, we will deduct the cost of £138.00 (Incl. VAT) per tenant referenced and refund the remainder.
