I used the services of Chris at Chris Mackenzie Photography for a business project and was so…read moreimpressed I recommended him to my family for a personal photoshoot as well. So this review is about both types of service. The photoshoot was a gift, and not something you do every day, so it has to be good, and boy it was! I was part of the family event that was being photographed so had to pose for some of them (not my favourite thing to do!) but I love the resulting photos. Because I originally hired Chris to carry out product photography, having seen his food photography work, I had no worries that the product photography was going to be great. It's better than that, it's outstanding. What was really fantastic though was that his portrait/family shots were just as good, even though they are totally different subjects and require a different skill and approach. Multiskilled, adaptable team of folk these. We went on to get a lot of copies of the family shots for other family members. It's the gift that keeps giving! On each day of the shoot, Chris and his team adopted an approach that was calm, professional and collaborative. They were professional, and kind - essential when photographing humans! And they were a whole lot of fun! Chris went the extra mile in the shoot and in the finishing, very well recommended by my gang and I.

You know, I kinda feel like I need to knock on wood or do something else to prevent the karma…read moremonster from coming back and biting my ferociouly on the arse, but screw it, I'm gonna do it anyway. Letting agents are right next to people who fart in packed lifts on the 'you suck' scale, ceratnily considering that the majority of one/two star reviews on Yelp far outweigh the 3/4 star ones (something that is very rare on our nice wee site!). Now I totally get why that is. Some of these guys suck. Plain and simple. I've had friends who've been mightily screwed around by some places, to the extent that you wonder if it's actually a human being and not a heartless robot who's running the biz. Right, muttering over. Review time. I've heard people saying that these guys are sometimes slow to respond to calls. This claim has on occasions had merit, however on the whole, they are pretty damn prompt at getting things done and getting back to you on issues. In the main, they're pretty hands off in terms of visits, contact etc. If things look and sound happy, they seem to be quite happy to let you get on with things and be there if schtuff needs done. Me like. One of the main plus points i feel with these guys is the appointment of a specific customer service contact for each tenant. This means, for me, that I have a name and some one accountable for my requests. No longer does a question 'go missing' after being passed along the line! Me happy so far.

All I can say is that this has to be the most horrible Letting Agency I've ever dealt with…read more I paid my £900 rent every month before it was due yet when it came to getting my deposit back... they were nowhere to be seen. Everytime I called these guys I was told to put it in "writing". It took 4 MONTHS to finally get a reponse and this was only after threatening taking them to a Small Claims Court. I also didn't get my full deposit back... I am still waiting for a letter 5 MONTHS later to explain what they were deducting and also still waiting for a Gas bill as this was charged by Merchant Lettings and paid directly. They act really professional to begin with when they are trying to get your money but BEWARE... Not a member of the tenancy deposit scheme either! AVOID!
