I was tempted in with a 30-40 minute promise and because looked like they were based in same postcode as property. After several minutes was told that we had to pay immediately and quoted Β£352! For that price they would only provide access to locked out tenants and not fix/replace lock- that would cost another Β£150+ and take another day."
