Unbelievably poor service in every way. This site seems to get good reviews about Portico, but not a SINGLE one for the Museum Street branch. Not surprising. It's really amazing and flabbergasting how bad the Museum Street Portico 'service' is. I was a tenant for ten years (luckily not anymore). Portico were utterly awful in every way: service, communication (both amongst themselves and with us), organization, competence, and basic courtesy. This organization must have ENTIRELY the wrong leadership and training. Does anyone even enjoy their job at Portico??? I never got the impression that they did. I cannot wish them upon anyone. Do be warned! This "award-winning" nonsense is obviously rigged in some way. They do deserve a reward for Utter Ineptness, I suppose.
No procedure set.

I have been a tenant with Portico for the last month and a half and have never regretted being with an Estate Agents more. Aside from the fact that when we moved into the flat there was a load of stuff from the previous tenant lying about, it was also in sub-par cleaning condition. This was only... Read Full Review

Unfortunately, this is not a positive Review. I am afraid I never had to deal with such an incompetent agency before. When taking over the apartment, nothing had been cleaned and many things including oven and fridge did not function properly and were only attended to on request after several... Read Full Review
highly overcharging for no service at all. E.g charging 300pounds for cleaning even though the apartment was never cleaned.

Think of all the negative cliches attributed to state agencies and then add some more to them and that's Portico. This is going to sound like a litany of complaints, there is just so much to tell, but if you want to save yourself time just do the following, DO NOT RENT FROM PORTICO,... Read Full Review

The service to give the flat a quick freshen up with paint and minor works was well worth the extra money. In fact this additional cost still only came in at the same price as many competitors basic service.

I'm very happy with the service provided by Edmund Cude and in particular, Lucy Adamson. Unlike other agents, she will try to understand what your requirements are and only recommend those properties that fit your criteria.
