Improvement needex…

I'm pretty adept at online applications. There were a number of discrepancies that led me to cancel my house sale advert. In particular some aspects lacked transparency.
Most of these would be very easily resolved if someone took the genuine time to hear another opinion.
It started with the misleading online advert, £80 set up fee, great I thought some help with set up. Not so it's another sneaky add on, a money laundering fee not made clear in the advertising.
Sadly online launch of your advert is delayed whilst your advert is checked unsure how many days that takes out of your paid for first month's premium. This should be stated upfront and your paid premium only started once all checks completed. Instead it starts counting down from the day you pay.
The money laundering check did not seem to accept a water bill as utility bill/address ID even though I provided it as was dated within 3 months of current date. I was then asked for proof of property ownership such as mortgage statement. If you require a different level of address ID for money laundering then a streamlined more specific ID list could be provided.
You are not allocated a customer service agent for queries upon set up. This is important as everything is automated and if you don't tick all the boxes you don't go live. Eg EPC you go on govt website and are not offered your EPC in pdf format, no one at visum does this for you, so your box doesn't get ticked so you don't go live online.
The wording on some of the automated emails you are sent is blunt to aggressive and would have been useful to have lots of this information in advance of set up, not the auto emails causing delays after purchase.
Finally there is no 14 day cooling off period which for all normal estate egencies you get. You wouldn't need this if purchase/set up was transparent but it's not.
The product is a great idea but sadly the automation/admin/set up leaves you frustrated and out of pocket.

Dear Chery,

Thank you for leaving us a review and giving me a chance to bring some clarity, both for yourself and for anyone else reading this.

Pricing is detailed on our website at the link below where anyone can see it before they go to the trouble of creating an advert:

https://www.visum.co.uk/prices/selling

As you can see, the £80 fee is clearly described as being to cover the due diligence process that we need to follow on all clients as part of the government’s anti-money laundering, anti-organised crime and anti-terrorism goals. It’s not called a setup fee and says nothing about giving help with setting up your ad.

Your property ad will not go live until we’ve completed these checks. This would be exactly the same for any estate agent of any kind, whether a traditional agent or an online one, and is not a situation that is unique to us.
How long the checks take depends on who you are, but on average it’s a couple of hours. For complex cases it might take a few days until we’re satisfied. You will always get the amount of advert time that you paid for.

A water bill is perfectly fine to show your connection to the address. I’m not sure why you think we wouldn’t accept it? We request a document that shows both your name and the property address.

Regarding your EPC, we link you to the government’s website so you can check to see if you have an already existing EPC. The idea is to save you paying for something that you don’t need. The option to print out your EPC on the government website is clearly displayed on the left-hand menu, so – if you need to – you can print it to PDF and upload it to our site. We made the assumption that people would be able to figure this out, but maybe we should not have. I will reword that section to make this explicit.

You are allowed a cooling off-period for as long as you wish, but it ends the moment you choose to put your ad live online. The reasons for this are because, when we put the ad live, we incur a cost from the places we list it. Also we do not want people receiving enquiries, selling or letting their property, then claiming their money back. The way we do it is legally compliant and perfectly straightforward.

I would very much appreciate more detail on the emails you feel are aggressive. If you wish to give some extra details to me you can reach me directly on m@visum.co.uk. As a thank you for doing so I’ll give you a discount off of your next listing if you want to have one.

Visum: The Solution to Avoiding Dishonest Estate Agents

I found a tenant through Visum, which has allowed me to manage my property independently, without the need for agents. Traditional estate agents often inflate repair costs (sometimes significantly), and dealing with them can be both time-consuming and costly. Many agents also carry out unsafe repairs, and some may even sublet properties (without the landlord knowing) through third parties or another agency they are 'friendly' with for their own profit. Using platforms like Visum is a much more efficient and transparent process, saving time and money. The ability to avoid inefficient, and sometimes dishonest, agents is invaluable!

Do not use!

Do not use!
They’ve got a guy called Mike Estrella who is an obnoxious liar!!
A keyboard warrior!!

He pretends it’s not him when you call up.

I asked him to change my property from a studio to 1 bed because they advertised it wrong.
He said he’d changed it before I paid.
7 days later still trying to get it changed to no avail.
I’m getting hardly any enquiries as it looks though I have an expensive studio advertised instead of a reasonably priced 1 bed flat.

When I’ve asked for a refund for a fault on his part, I was met with the response that I shouldn’t have paid if the advert wasn’t right! Even though he was the one supposed to change it.
Absolute nightmare of a man.

After telling Mark it was the wrong flat he was looking at, he realised the mistake and rectified the problem. Very simple to do obviously.

All sorted now!

Hi Ross. I'd like to get to the bottom of this for you. Could you email me on m@visum.co.uk giving me the telephone number you called in on and the address of the property in question so I can investigate please?

Kind regards,

Mark.

Edit: I've found the ad myself. You've wrote this advert not us and you've written (twice): 'great sized airy studio' and 'great sized studio'. You also selected the property type as 'studio'. Am I missing something here? I'd appreciate some further details please.

Thanks, Mark.

Antwort von Visum

Hi Daniel. I'm sorry you had a bad experience. According to our bank, you tried to pay twice. The first payment was declined with the response 'call issuer, pick up card' which is usually a response telling the retailer to try and retain the card from the customer and telephone the card issuer because the card has been reported lost or stolen. Obviously as an online retailer as opposed to a face-to-face one we were not in a position to do that. The second payment attempt was declined because you entered the wrong address for the card. Neither we nor any other business can just take money from your account, so my colleague who told you to pay again was actually correct to do so. I will listen to the telephone call and if I feel that he fell short of a good standard of customer service (or was rude) then I will compensate you in some way.

If you wish to discuss this further then I'm happy to do it here in public, or you're welcome to email me on m@visum.co.uk.

Kind regards,

Mark.

Fantastic service

This service is very easy to use and very reasonably priced. They provide the full package from beginning to end of the letting/tenancy process. They also get good coverage when advertising your property

Antwort von Visum

Dear Josh. We always reply to a fresh enquiry within 5 minutes, day or night, every day of the year. After that initial reply, we pass your enquiry to the property owner to deal with directly. In this respect we are not like a traditional agent, and we explain what's going to happen as part of the enquiry process. At this point communication - although initially through our system - becomes a matter between yourself and the owner. There are many reasons why the owner might not respond quickly, such as them being overwhelmed with the number of enquiries, or not liking something about your enquiry. But none of those reasons are anything to do with us and therefore don't justify giving us a bad review. If you have any questions about your particular enquiry please email me directly on m@visum.co.uk. Thanks.

Very poor communication

Enquired about a property and the landlord invited me to view. Landlord did not turn up for the appointment - later messaged me to apologise and say they had family issues, suggesting alternative viewing time. I responded via the platform and text message but heard nothing back from the landlord so called them at which point they told met they had a "queue of people who wanted to view the property" and it had been let. Very poor communication and wasted time travelling to view the property and chasing landlord. There was no way of getting any help from Visum, who offered the property via them/their platform and this is my experience of using Visum, which was not satisfactory in any way. If Visum is the intermediary they should have an element if control and/or help to their users.

Antwort von Visum

Hi J. Your problem seems to be with the landlord, not with us. All we do is carry adverts on the landlord's behalf and pass the enquiries to him. At that point our job is done and we have nothing at all to do with the viewing or letting of the property, so I'd be very grateful indeed if you could retract this review. Leaving a negative review for us in these circumstances is like leaving a negative review for Autotrader because someone selling a car on there messed you about. Kind regards, Mark.

Enquiries ignored - arrogant response from their admin

Advertised a 'professionally staged' flat with great photos and appropriately priced on Visum. However, after nearly three weeks we only received one genuine enquiry in spite of regularly high views. We became suspicious of a problem so asked some people to enquire on our behalf. Initially none of these came though, then after multiple attempts from each of them just one came though. When this was raised with the customer support on the phone and though their webmail, they just said everything was fine it must be the applicants not clicking though properly. The attitude was arrogant and not interested in seeing if they was a fault they could improve on. Avoid this - my experience just does not match the 5 stars reviews that are on here except one that said they also got no response.

Hi G. I'm the owner of the company and I'd like to try and get to the bottom of what's going on. I'm actually away from work this coming week for personal reasons, but if you email me on m@visum.co.uk and let me know the email address of your Visum account then I'll investigate and respond as soon as I am able. If our staff have fallen short of our standards then we'll put things right. Thanks, Mark.

refreshing - the secrets out!

Our house was originally on the market with a high street estate agent. Typical of the industry, contribution was poor.
We selected the 6 month package with Visum as there were a few useful add ons like photo's and a sign.
We learned that we could sell our house better than any 'middle man' can. And it cost around 1/10 of the price.
Direct contact with your buyers helps things run smoothly and reduces the stress.
