Student Cribs Omdömen 1 813

Mike porter and a couple other handymen were more than welcoming in helping me and my friend jump start our cars. ( we were hopeless without them)

Paul fixed my tv on the 25/3/26 and he did a really good job. He was rlly efficient and a rlly nice person and overall did an amazing job! Thanks Paul :)

Honestly they are so incredibly easy to work with. Very flexible and always keep in contact. Would definitely use them for my third year house aswell !!

Student Cribs maintenance is excellent, a particular mention goes to Mike Cousins who was very helpful and friendly when fixing our reported problems, thank you Mike.

Sam did a great job fixing the curtains in my accomodation

Mike Cousins in Exeter came in and fixed our floor, he worked efficiently and well, and was extremely kind and chatty! An amazing experience and a pleasure to have around the house

Steve brought new toaster after it failed.

Having had horrific experience with previous agents of the building, Student Cribs care! Some of the company's central comms can be frustrating but locally the maintenance team, particularly Gavin Coles, is reassuringly great. Since taking over they have made sure the building is safe and watertight which nobody has cared about before!

Hes very helpful always come in for help and always very lovely and friendly

Dave and Harry have helped us with a tonne of issues in the flat and are always really helpful, sociable and genuinely nice to talk to. They always get their jobs fast and never complain best staff here.

Dave and harry were great

Dave and Harry are awesome

In January 2025 my daughter decided to move into Byron Lofts in Newcastle, we live in the south so we checked out the website and the rooms looked lovely. We were regularly received emails informing us we only had a short time to book or the apartment might go back on the market? We paid our deposit and signed the contract to move in 28th July 2025 @ 2:30pm (specific date and time given by student cribs). Because my daughter was in effect taking over a contract from the existing tenant we took comfort in the fact their contract stipulated they were responsible to ensure the apartment is deep cleaned and left in good order? We paid our first quarter payment in advance £1800. We received an email from the north east team confirming “they looked forward to meeting us on the 28th”? We packed on the day and drove for 3 hours, we arrived to find the place locked and no sign of life, no student cribs agent? We waited 20 minutes until my daughter managed to find a tenant that was home and let us in. We went straight up to the room and found an absolutely disgusting and disgracefully presented apartment, the door was open, mould all over the room and bathroom, stains in the mattress, silicone sealer was black with mould, walls had liquid stains all over, the desk was disgusting and the TV didn’t work? I rang them immediately but no one was available locally so I spoke to a call centre in London. I told them we were not moving in, we were rejecting the room, we took loads of photos and within 20 minutes had emailed them with a list of things needed to be rectified before my daughter moved in. After a week we had heard nothing, no phone calls, a couple of emails but importantly no apology or confirmation they were going to carry out any of the repairs (the room stank of mould and damp). After a week I sent an email confirming we wished to be released from the contract under “the right to unwind” under the 2018 housing act. From there on we received nothing it threats and complacency, ignoring requests, demanding money etc… in the end we went to a solicitor and have been chasing compensation ever since, to date, over a year later we have offered fair compromise but received absolute silence? DO NOT CONTRACT with Student Cribs, they are a shameful and disgraceful organisation hell bent on ripping off poor innocent students.

UPDATE
Having received a response from student cribs May I just clarify a few points? 1 I tried to ring and speak to someone for nearly a month until your colleague Joshua insisted that I not ring him but instead revert to email only? 2 your responses to our solicitors letters have been vague, non conclusive and, you have rejected ever receiving any supporting information from us in support of our claim? When we sent you an exact timeline of our information sent (January 2026) you have, to date, failed to reply, even after we offered to relinquish some of the monies we have so far paid you for an apartment my daughter has NEVER occupied? Added to the fact we have now spent several thousand pounds over and above to find her alternative accommodation very very late and literally just before the September start of year 2. Appalling and disgraceful customer service, your operation exists to make money on the misery of poor students….

UPDATE2
Almost 2 months now since we sent our last solicitor letter and no response from Student Cribs? Are these the actions of a company who holds customer service at the centre of their business or is it just lip service to draw unsuspecting inexperienced and innocent students into contracts that do not protect them and accommodation that is not fit for habitation? Anyone want to see some of the photos of my daughter’s room please contact me directly. DO NOT CONTRACT WITH STUDENT CRIBS! They are a disgraceful organisation….

Steve was very good and helpful super lovely

Steve Pritchard came to repair our lightings. Really nice guy. Explain the processes thoroughly and concisely. Never had an issue with maintenance and repair

We are in a five bedroom house in salford and john was super helpful fixed thing straight away that had been left for months!! thank you john!

Badly damaged door, speedy response from Paul and Mike, Paul picked up a new door for us, Mike fitting it, all done within the day! Amazing service!

Really nice flat, stayed here for a year with hardly any problems and any problems we did have Gavin always sorted it out timely. Would recommend

helpful friendly positive fast worker gave us his dustpan

5 of us live in one of student-cribs houses in Nottingham. They hardly respond to any of your reports on the house. We’ve had mould in all of our rooms, hasn’t been fixed for 2 weeks now and it getting worse. Random things went missing between us viewing the house and getting into the house e.g the gardens benches are no longer there which we asked if we would have prior to moving in which they responded with yes. We got told that we have to sort out own bills out which we did and after a month realised we were paying 2 different bills for 2 separate companies which we didn’t get told about. Our boiler has broken 5 times and they don’t respond to fixing it, had to call and email them and then they finally came. The only positive is how lovely the maintenance people actually are. When they do finally come they are very lovely and up for a nice chat.
