renthero.co.uk SCAM

renthero.co.uk I subscribed for 7 days and paid 5 pounds. They did not ask me if I wanted to carry on the subscription and pay 35 pounds!!!!!!!! I did not subscribe for £35, but they took it from my bank account. I request a refund. Waiting for their response.
Also, the information they provided is inaccurate, and the property you showed me during my 7-day subscription is not available by following your links. So they scam people not only by taking £35 but also by failing to provide the information that, according to my 7-day £5 subscription, they should.

Please return my £35 to my bank account, and I will leave feedback on Trustpilot confirming that you are NOT scammers. Otherwise, your actions just prove that you are scamming me.

To avoid a situation where people get scammed by you:
1. Email confirmation should be required before allowing account creation and charging for a trial, as is standard practice across similar services.
2. The advertising banner should clearly state what happens when the trial finishes.
3. At the end of a trial, users should be downgraded to a free plan by default, with a clear option to upgrade, rather than being automatically charged.

AVOID this website

I tried to cancel the subscription but it had "something went wrong..." message and the subscription stayed live. I emailed them but they said I will receive a response in 72 hours. Nothing happened. I tried to remove my bank details that didn't work either. AVOID this website, its a SCAM. They kept my card details despite having removed it myself. This is illegal. I have contacted my bank to block them.

See below the standard response for all complaints. They look for more information like your phone number and email address. I am not prepared to give these details.

Hi Georgina,

Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We’re very sorry to hear about your concerns and understand how alarming this situation must feel.

RentHero operates as a property search platform that aggregates listings from various publicly available sources to help users find rental properties in one place. We do not create listings ourselves or manage properties directly. However, if a property appears on our platform incorrectly, we absolutely want to investigate this and ensure it is addressed promptly.

We requested and received your contact details via Trustpilot’s secure system and had the opportunity to reach out to you by email. Unfortunately, we did not receive a reply.

If you wish, you can still reply to our email, and we will be more than happy to clarify any misunderstandings.

Kind regards,

Hi Emily,

Thank you for your message. We’re sorry to hear about the confusion and understand how concerning it can be to see attempted charges from your account.

We’d like to clarify that trial subscriptions convert into a paid subscription if not cancelled within the trial period, as explained in our Terms and Conditions and the confirmation email received at the time of sign-up.

To ensure no further payments are attempted, we requested your details via Trustpilot’s secure system, but as we did not receive a response, we’re currently unable to take this further. If you would still like assistance, please contact our support team using the form available in the T&Cs on our website.

A very fraudulent company.

A very fraudulent company. They charged me £8 to contact landlords only for me to see that the advertised property was from four years ago. After one week, they tried to debit me about £30 for a monthly subscription. Luckily I had no funds in the account. A very terrible company. Do not even click a link to their website unless you just want to fund their scams

WARNING - SCAM

WARNING - this is a SCAM COMPANY
It misrepresented that I could contact private landlords directly, but I had to subscribe and pay £4, which I did. When I then clicked on listings to contact, it turned out they were old listing and I was directed to agents, NOT landlords, and the properties were already off the market. When you email info@ it bounces to their FAQ. When you click on FAQ, the link is broken. When you call the number listed on site it is dead.

Hi Sarah,

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear that your experience did not meet your expectations.

RentHero is a property search platform that aggregates listings from multiple sources to help users find rentals in one place. In many cases, the contact will be with the advertiser of the listing, which may be an agent or property manager rather than a private landlord. Property availability can also change quickly, and while we aim to keep listings as up to date as possible, some may no longer be available.

Hi Charlotte,

We’re really sorry to hear this and completely understand how frustrating it must feel to see a charge after you believe you cancelled your subscription.

If a cancellation is completed successfully, no further payments should be taken, so we would genuinely like to review your account to see what may have happened here. Sometimes issues occur if there was a typo in the email used to register, or if the cancellation process was not fully finalised.

We requested your details via Trustpilot’s secure system, but as we did not receive a response, we’re currently unable to take this further. If you would still like assistance, please contact our support team using the form available in the T&Cs on our website.

Hello William,

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re very sorry to hear about your frustration. Subscriptions begin with a trial period at a reduced rate, and if not cancelled within that window, the subscription continues at the standard rate, as outlined in the terms accepted during registration.

We understand how unexpected charges can be concerning, and we’d like the opportunity to review your account and clarify exactly what happened in your case.

We requested your details via Trustpilot’s secure system, but as we did not receive a response, we’re currently unable to take this further. If you would still like assistance, please contact our support team using the form available in the T&Cs on our website.

Hello,

We’re sorry to hear you feel this way. RentHero is a legitimate subscription service, and all pricing and renewal details are shown during sign-up before any payment is made.

We requested and received your contact details via Trustpilot’s secure system and had the opportunity to reach out to you by email. Unfortunately, we did not receive a reply.

In our message, we believe we clearly explained that you registered on our platform for your property search and later chose to cancel your subscription during the trial period, with no charges applied. We hope the cancellation process worked smoothly for you and that no further issues have come up since.

We also clarified that RentHero works as a rental listings aggregator, bringing together properties from multiple sources in one place, with access to contact details included as part of the premium service. We completely understand that this type of service may not suit everyone, and that can understandably lead to disappointment if expectations weren’t met.

If you wish, you can still reply to our email, and we will be more than happy to clarify any further misunderstandings.

Kind regards,
