This business is absolutely awful to deal with. We had issues with student accommodation from the very 1st day and a few months on we still are trying to get them to fix damp, mould and rodent infestation! The money being paid out to this company for such a disgusting property in dis-repair is truly beyond my comprehension. They do not belong to a property redress scheme either. Funny that! They have terrible reviews everywhere you look and for good reason. The problem for many students is they have almost a monopoly in Bristol so its hard to avoid them. If you can steer clear of Bristol Digs at all costs!

The worst letting agents we have encountered, completely unprofessional, not interested if theres an issue with the property, which there was many. They specialise in slum housing infested with black mold which their inept contractor paints over. Steer clear of these cowboys, they dont care about maintaining the property theyre supposed to be managing and care only about lining their pockets whilst their tenants suffer serious health and safety problems caused by their disregard. They shouldnt be allowed to operate.

Looking at the reviews I'm kind of glad this happened to me despite now being cold, angry and upset. On the one it was arranged the viewing will be 1:40 when I got there 10 min early and they didn't arrive by 1:50 I rang them and they said my appointment is at 2:30. I wondered until 2:20 and got back and waited until 2:50 and they told me that the viewing already happened despite being there for nearly an hour and ringing them twice.

Worst company imaginable, I would leave a review of 0 stars but the lowest is 1. I must repeat, do not deal with this company, do not communicate with this company, do not acknowledge its existence

Critical: Professionalism Asked to enquire about a 3 bed property and Digs responded that they only wanted a 'mixed group' of people. What? A 3 bed property and somehow they are trying to discriminate? How unprofessional and completely wrong.

Critical: Professionalism, Quality, Responsiveness, Value Awful people terrible service and they'll rob your deposit over nothing! The only reason they are still in business is because their customers (students) leave town each year.
