General Enquiries

What if I am not happy with the performance of the UKALA agent?

If you are not happy with the performance of your UKALA agent then firstly talk seriously to them about your concerns. The majority of disputes involving landlords, tenants and agents come about because one party or more may have misunderstand their responsibilities. Therefore read your tenancy agreement (if a tenant) or the agents' terms and conditions (if a landlord) very carefully and make sure that you are keeping to your side of the agreement. If you still believe that the performance of your UKALA agent is unacceptable then you can request that UKALA consider the situation.

Complaints Procedure

The procedure for making a complaint follows four key stages:

  1. Put in writing the nature of your complaint, clearly explaining the circumstances and the reason for your complaint (including any supporting evidence or previous correspondence if appropriate).
  2. We will check whether the agent is a UKALA member. If they are we will send them your complaint, with a request that they put in writing their side of the story.
  3. We will assess the complaint and the response recieved from the member agent
  4. Their letter will then be sent to you together with the conclusions of this Association.


Please note the following:

  • We must receive a formal letter including your original signature.
  • We cannot accept anonymous complaints or e-mails.
  • If you fax a complaint you must also send the original in the post.
