Housr is so easy to use and has great functionality! I had a problem with using my international phone number and the help desk provided prompt and useful advice.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Minesh was brilliant - he patiently answered all my numerous (perhaps excessively so!) questions and guided us through the process. I can’t say the same for the other utilities providers we tried!

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

They really helped with the issue I had, whilst still offering competetive rates and exchanges for me. The team remained friendly and helpful throughout. Thank you!

Demanding bills paid and WiFi still outstanding threatening emails sent by housr . Once package agreed a bill for a week…

Once package agreed a bill for a week prior to the move in date was asked to be cleared or otherwise no service. They were not tenants at that time. Multiple calls and an email and another message received from housr demanding payment. Daughter and student friends very stressed. WiFi due to be delivered a week ago and on tracking is now still in Scotland. Message sent today confirming delivery address was correct but no WiFi delivered. Housr not answering the phone so cannot get anywhere. This is supposed to make life less stressful for students. At the moment the service received has not been fit for purpose

Absolutely disgusting company

Absolutely disgusting company. Terrible customer service, they will try and charge you for everything (meter readings they don’t ask for until you’ve moved out for example) and threaten you with a CCJ if you don’t reply within a few days. I had to call and email them multiple times with this threat looming over me to get them to finally leave me alone. They also prey on uni students naivety.
