AVOID AT ALL COSTS!
This is how they work - they will set up a no fee 1st visit where the sales rep will tell you that you have a strong case for getting a reduction on your business rates.
You are then told that there is a fee of £2,000 to go to the next step and have you sign an agreement for this service.
What is not being discussed is that you have NO cooling off period or any way out of the agreement after this point.
My understanding was that they will only proceed to the next step once ive paid their fee - turns out the agreement I've signed you are still 100% liable for the fee even if you cancel. So they get £2,000 for not lifting a finger.
Doing a bit more research online (really wished I did this before dealing with them) it seems that this company is making more money out of people through court judgments to pay their Agreement Fee than happy clients who they have actually saved money for!
My contact with in the company was (deleted by the administrator) - ive asked him to give me 3 references of companies where they've had success with reducing their bills - he's not been able to give me a single reference.
I’m sorry you had a bad experience - we found them to be very professional and helpful.
Sorry you had a bad experience, but reading your post it seems that you chose not to pay their fees and that your issue is that they chased you for those fees.
You say that your understanding was different to the contract you signed. It seems to me that this was all a misunderstanding on your part, rather than a case of a bad experience.
Material misrepresentation and inducement. Totally unethical. No governing body or regulator. Scamming companies. UK shouldn’t allow these companies to operate
Email serial spammers, do not even try to reply, they will then ad you to a live list and you will get more spam. Yet another bunch of spammers waiting to get hit with a GDPR case.
Have you tried blocking their email address or reporting them to the relevant authorities for spamming? It's crucial to protect your data privacy rights.
Crooks, as far as I can tell they don't actually have a business. Its just a company name designed for Hampton Lovett to dump disgruntled customers into. No phone numbers, emails don't get answered, no work gets done??
Stay well clear!
Why do you say they have no business? I can see they are registered and it looks like they operate. Do you have any bad experiences with them?
Google business rates reduction scams - it’s terrifying its been discussed in Parliament do not have them to your property do not engage above reviews say everything beware
There are problems in the industry… the scams you refer to relate to the application for Small Business Rates Relief on behalf of businesses who already had a low enough rateable value to warrant receiving the relief.
This is not a service provided by CCS.
Total scammers high pressure and illegal collection tactics
Corporate Commercial Surveyors is the new company set up from Hampton Lovett after the reviews exposed them.
You need to choose your words carefully when leaving a review here otherwise they get them deleted.
In short, do not use this company, you will not get any rate reduction and you will not get your money back.
What did you write to make them delete the review? :D It must be hard to explain they scammed you, using nice words...
What are the salaries for assistant positions within the Consulting services department?
