Disappointing Experiences with Bishop and Co
Some reviewers have had a frustrating experience with Bishop and Co, a letting agency in Eastleigh. One reviewer, Ken Parker, had a contract stipulating a two-month notice period for vacating the property, which he fulfilled. However, the agency refused to release his deposit, citing issues with the property's cleanliness. After a long and arduous process, the independent arbitration team found in favour of Parker, stating that his deposit should be returned immediately. The agency's handling of the situation was deemed unprofessional, and Parker warns future tenants to be wary of the agency's intentions.
Another reviewer, Tural Mehtiyev, had an equally disappointing experience with the same agency. He booked a flat through Nick, who initially seemed friendly and helpful. However, Mehtiyev soon realized that Nick was taking advantage of his urgency to secure a flat. The agency was slow to repair issues with the property, and when Mehtiyev was about to leave, they attempted to keep some of his furniture and curtains, claiming they belonged to the property. The agency also failed to register Mehtiyev's deposit with the relevant protection scheme.
