Quintain Living - Ferrum Recensioni 

Imagine paying more than £30,000 for living with mice in zone 4. Or even better with dogs pee all over your place?

Don’t worry! Management team will do anything so you won’t even sign new rental contracts.

Unresponsiveness will start with your moving day- I waited for 1 hour to someone come and open the door (reminder I was moving so it means I rented man and van and no one reimbursed me waiting time) in a service that they are selling like 24/7 concierge + I have date/time approved.

Then while living be prepared to buy extra poo bags if you are a dog owner as somehow residents don’t like to pick up shit after their own dogs and you don’t want yours roll out in someone’s. This case was escalated 12 times and you know what they did- put an extra sign please pick up 😂

Then each month you have several issues with WIFI so be prepared not to be able to work from home/coworking as they’re promoting it.

If you have windows looking to the stadium be prepared to hear screams/yelling/puking in events days so always choose the garden. Plus you will always have people smoking under your windows and concerns regarding that are not met.

But my favorite part so far is living under neighbor who is dog sitter and has millions of dogs who are peeing from their balcony and you will always have the best smell even inside your flat. Management won’t even reply to your emails and answer your calls like living in dogs shit (yes, sometimes those poor dogs have diarrhea) is totally normal to them.

Good luck to everyone who ever checked the place to rent here

Regular touch points and updates so I always knew what was needed and how the process was going!

We love living at Ferrum! The apartment is nice and very well decorated. Amenities are great! Everything is clean and very well kept. We had a couple of maintenance issues when we moved in which were all dealt with super fast.

I’ve been leaving here for over 3 years and I can’t be more happy. Special thanks to Joanna from the residents team for being extremely helpful. Highly recommend anyone to live in the area and specially in Ferrum

Have lived at Ferum 3 for 2 years. Resident management team are absolutely non repsonsive, although the maintenance team are great. Noise pollution is beyond bearable with events for half of the year at Wembley stadium and noise so loud, you can't even hear your own television, which goes on until the earlry hours. I pay £200 per month for secure parking and for the next 3 months, every weekend, i cannot access the car park because the road is closed and have to park ina public car park where damage to cars is very common. Overall the apartments are very nice, but the downside of extreme noise, very poor service from the management team, far outweighs the attraction of living here. You can now rent an apartment next to the river, with a view of tower bridge, for th esam eprice you pay here.

The process was smooth and well-organised. Elaine and Mohammed Qania were very helpful and clear with communication throughout. Everything was sorted in advance, making the process easy and stress-free.
Thanks to the team at Quintain Living!

amazing experience! Thanks a lot to Adrian Black! Although I was quite demanding and picky but he was kind enough to offer me different options and responded to all my questions and concerns so there was no doubt I would have the best option that would 100% fit to my demands. Definitely recommended!

Very positive experience, all the staff very friendly and the process very easy.

The apartments at Quintain Living are well-maintained and of good quality. However, my experience with their management team left much to be desired, particularly during my tenancy and move-out process.

During my stay, communication was a significant issue - it often took months to receive responses to basic enquiries. The most frustrating experience came during the move-out process. Despite handing over the apartment in clean (much better than we received it) and good condition, I was charged for an end-of-tenancy cleaning. It appears they have an arrangement with a cleaning company that performed unnecessary cleaning services, essentially charging me for work that wasn't needed. The situation has become even more concerning as they now completely ignore all my emails, only sending payment reminders. Before moving out, they attempted to pressure us by threatening higher charges if we didn't pay for cleaning in advance - effectively forcing us into accepting their cleaning service without any option to decline.

That is the first time we have such experience with a company of their size. I don't even know how to contact them now

Quintain Living - Ferrum Review

I recently started renting from Quintain Living in their Ferrum building, and my experience so far has been fantastic. I’d like to extend a special thanks to Mohammed Qania and Elaine Ko for making the rental process incredibly fast and smooth. The paperwork was handled swiftly and entirely online, which made the process hassle-free. The team was also very flexible with some onboarding requirements, which I truly appreciated.

The apartment itself was spotless and well-organized when we moved in, which left a great first impression. It was clear that the team paid attention to detail, ensuring everything was in perfect condition before we arrived.

The staff were friendly and accommodating throughout, even managing everything efficiently during the busy holiday period—a time when many employees are typically on leave. Despite this, they ensured that all processes were completed on time.

Moving in was also seamless, with easy access for bringing in my luggage and belongings. Additionally, minor maintenance issues were resolved promptly within two days, and the team followed up to make sure everything was working perfectly.

Before moving in, I read some negative reviews about certain aspects of Quintain Living, but I haven’t experienced any of those issues. The building is consistently clean, and the concierge team is always friendly and helpful. The area itself is a highlight—safe, vibrant, and family-friendly. It’s close to transportation, shopping centers, and playgrounds, offering plenty of activities for everyone. The neighbors I’ve met so far seem warm and welcoming, adding to the community feel.

Overall, my experience has been nothing but positive. Thank you to the entire Quintain Living team for their professionalism and dedication!

Friendly Service

Julia and Sahil was very helpful and gave great assistance in our tenency check and rent agreement.

Thanks a lot both of you

Rodrigues from the residents team helped sort my issue right away. He was professional and friendly dealing with the case.

I have had a great experience with Julia Whyte, she walked through the entire process and was available for assistance at any time even during the weekend that was critical and time-sensitive for me to move in through a very frustrating payment technicality with the bank, Julia came through and delivered a professional and great service which I really appreciate. Fawaz and Richard welcomed me when first arrived to the hub and helped through the viewing and referencing approvals, they have great.

Upon checkin there was already a long wait. They are clearly understaffed and the residents manager was so rude (probably from overworking). There’s no introduction or any guidance they just handed me the key and said “you can go now”. I feel so mistreated even though I’m paying over 2k a month to live here. (Ferrum House)

It took me less than 3 days to get everything, including referencing, sorted out with Quintain. I'd like to thank Mohammed, Ibrahim and Cynthia who were all incredibly helpful and really speed with their responses. I'm moving from Ireland so their customer service skills and just general friendly tone put me at ease when I'm dealing with a stressful situation. Great staff!

I have decided to leave a review here out of sheer frustration at the lack of a support channel for residents that allows for direct and honest communication about the poor service and recurring problems and lack of coherence in Quintain's management, particularly in Ferrum. For over a month, I have been trying to get someone from the company to respond to my email to arrange a repair in my apartment. They leave you with no options or alternatives for finding support.

The rules of residents are sometimes ridiculous but poorly implemented. To the point where team members allegedly enable private parties for some residents, against the general rules.

They have even disabled my entry key for almost 48 hours due to technical errors, leaving me without access to my apartment, and the response took more than a day to be resolved.

Security is very vulnerable and depends on the good will and joint vigilance of the residents, who take care of each other. Quintain seems to enable apartments for short-term rentals (for example, when there are events at Wembley), which does not contribute to greater security.

Living in one of Quintain's properties is an exhausting experience that I do not suggest or recommend. The poor support and inefficiency of their resident support channels are among the worst and most expensive services I have interacted with, and border on disrespect.

Overcharge and try to charge for every little things

I’ve been with Quintain for 2 years in Ferrum and about to go into my third year and I’m very disappointed. Month by month, the standard and quality of service has gone down. Internet goes down every other day. There is the smell of drugs on numerous floors. The bin chute has never worked. The parcel room is chaos. Despite paying £50 a month in pet rent, pets have been banned from most of the building, and the dog run is never cleaned so I don’t go in there. Trying to get through to anyone to speak to is near impossible. I’d love to be able to leave early due to the service decline and personal circumstances, but I’d have to pay around £5,000 as a penalty. Therefore I’m trapped. Quintain sells a dream but delivers a nightmare. Would not recommend to anyone.

It was one of the worst experiences we've ever had in our lives. Where do I start! We made an appointment to see an apartment in the Ferrum building on Wednesday, April 3 at 9.30 through the Quintain Living website. We arrived at the appointed day and time and were greeted by Matt Olsen, one of the leasing associates. He showed us different apartment options for a while and we finally agreed on Ferrum 437. Since someone already lived in the apartment, he showed us around 2 different apartments in the Ferrum building, which had similar features but were smaller in size. He also showed the gym, communal areas and parking area.

He then sent us the floor plan and photos of Ferrumn 437 via email and told us that if we approve, we should upload the necessary documents and pay the reservation fee. We approved and started the process. We uploaded all our necessary documents to the system and paid the reservation fee. On the same day, he sent the following e-mail;

"Thank you for your reservation payment on 437 Ferrum. Your apartment is now off the market. Congratulations :)
Your move-in date is 09/05/2024."

Since our move-in date was May 9, in order not to be late, we sent a notice to the landlord of the apartment we were currently living in, informing him that we would be moving out on May 9, and we agreed to vacate the house on that date. So far everything has been perfect.

However, today we received a call from another leasing associate, Soultana Dini, saying that someone else had reserved the apartment through the website 2 days before us and therefore they could not rent it to us. This is actually quite an unprofessional approach. After uploading all the documents required to rent the house and making the reservation payment, we receive an e-mail stating that the rental has been approved, and then they say that we cannot rent the house to you, as if we were playing a game. Who will cover our losses now? How can I find an apartment that meets our needs within 1 month, when we have informed our landlord that we will be moving out of the house we are currently living in?

Please do not be fooled by their advertisements and think ten times if you are thinking of renting a house!!!

It's very expensive, I think, in my opinion to expensive.
