Does anyone know what happened to the couple who tried to buy a property and were left hanging with vendors being difficult and lies from estate agent.

The property had some contamination or something...I can't find the thread..was hoping there was some update on it but not sure where it went. Is it removed?

    The OP deleted all her posts and asked mods to remove it for some reason.

    I'm guessing that the OP went to the agent, possibly let slip about the thread and website and got threatened with some sort of litigation.
    Shame really as a thread dedicated to name and shame agents would be priceless and most likely number 1 google search!

    It would just be a list of virtually every EA so would be worthless.

    I actually recommend Taylors of Drayton, they single handedly made our chain go through and they weren't even our agent!

    My agent can swivel.
