Sheffield House Share - Awful
I stayed in Sheffield in a house share, everything was going well until I actually moved in. Didn’t send me my key fob (which was through an app) I had to chase them for it on the start day of my tenancy. Was told a female and a male lived in the house but it was actually 3 males. I had issues with one particular housemate who I had never even spoken to, being intimidating and showing aggressive behaviour. I emailed the property manager, was ignored for weeks and then finally responded and told me to call the police. No support put in the place to move me to a different room, or resolve this. On top of that, that electric went off at least 5 times and I was only there 3 months. Even after I left, I continued to get emails saying there was a maintance report of the electric or hot water failing!! The area that I was in, the team don’t actually seem to care about their tenants. I had no choice but to move out as I was not comfortable in the environment, and to be honest I didn’t want to wait to have to “call the police”, I wanted to be listed to, and have it dealt with. I then had to move out, find somewhere to live and continue to pay my rent in full, no correspondence from anyone. They didn’t care.
It is a cheaper rent option compared to others in the area, so I suppose you pay for it in other ways… I wouldn’t rent with these again.
