Unprofessional, incompetent, utterly useless

Reviewer
“Your online portal with canopy rent is not fit for purpose. And the customer support team are wholly incompetent. Aside from assurances to give matters urgent attention their only consistency is how inconsistent they actually are at doing what they say. And the complaints page does not work. A waste of space. Any landlord or property company looking for referencing and compliance would do well to give canopy a wide berth. The fact they have merged with the equally lacklustre The Lettings Hub is a recipe for disaster. #shambolic

This is the worst software EVER

This is the worst software I have ever used. There has been a problem for myself, my partner and my guarantor each step of the way because this site. It will say things are completed then change it after 2 days causing confusion for everyone. When you explain it to the help team (who thankfully have all been nice) they say they have changed it for you and then it goes wrong again in the next 30 minutes!!!! This software should come with a free therapy session because it is the most frustrating thing I have ever had to deal with.

Some parts easy, some not so easy

It wasn't easy to show my income as I'm self-employed and it's different every month although I always receive a certain amount a month which adequately pays for my needs. In addition I have six bank accounts with the NatWest four of which show my savings ... one account shows savings of more than £20,000 which I couldn't share with Canopy or if I could it wasn't easy to see that I could.

I couldn't change a missed rental…

I couldn't change a missed rental payment after the 14 day window.

I logged into the system and reconnected my bank account, but when I tried to link the payment the system told me:

"Not quite
Uh oh! Too late to resolve this months missing rent. Please reach out to support for assistance in resolving this issue."

I contacted contact customer care to assist. They got back to me 2 days later I was told there was nothing they could do.

I phoned customer care and was told the same thing by two agents - they couldn't do anything.

What is the point of asking me to contact customer care; I wasted 20 minutes speaking to people that couldn't help me?
What is the point if I can't correct an error?
So this goes on my credit score, I can't correct it, even though the payment was made?

Seriously frustrated.
