Unprofessional, unreliable and still holding our deposit after 5 months

Avoid this agency. The experience is bad during the tenancy and even worse when it ends.
We vacated the property in December 2025 and urbanbubble is still holding £633 of our deposit a sum they themselves acknowledge is not in dispute. Five months later, it has not been returned.
Beyond the undisputed amount, we are also now in a formal dispute over the remaining portion of our deposit, as urbanbubble is attempting to make deductions for wear and tear damage, something landlords and agents are not legally permitted to charge tenants for under UK tenancy law.
Throughout our tenancy and beyond, the communication from this agency has been consistently unreliable and unprofessional. Responses are slow, questions go unanswered, and when they do reply, the tone is casual and dismissive, more like a text message to a friend than correspondence from a professional letting agency.
During our tenancy we waited over three months for a broken fridge to be replaced. A basic maintenance issue that should have been resolved within days took months of chasing.
Asad sent a deposit release form via DocuSign with almost every critical field left blank, deposit amount, outstanding rent, total deductions, amount to be returned, agent name and signature, and tenancy deposit reference number. We were asked to sign a legally binding financial document without being able to verify any of its terms. We lawfully refused.
When we challenged this, we were given inaccurate information about how DocuSign works, specifically that one tenant had to sign before the other could view the document. This was confirmed to be incorrect directly by DocuSign support. Document visibility is controlled entirely by the agent.
This is not a one-off mistake. It is a pattern of incompetence and unprofessionalism that any prospective tenant should be aware of before signing with this agency.

There was an outstanding issue in a property i own and UB manage for me. I live overseas and rely on Asad for everything with my properties. He was calm when i was anxious and he resolved the issue professionally with no extra cost to myself.

Thank again Asad.

Positive Experience - Lovely Team

My partner and I had a truly lovely experience with the team at Urbanbubble, particularly Alessandra and Dora.

Our first point of contact was with Dora, who sent us a video tour of the property and answered a few of our initial questions. Her quick responses and helpfulness made the process feel easy from the start.

Whilst arranging an in‑person viewing, I briefly spoke with Xavier, who was polite, efficient, and very helpful in getting everything organised.

When we attended the viewing, Alessandra was super welcoming. Her kindness and approachability, made us feel completely comfortable asking questions. She walked us through the property with patience and her support made the experience of finding our first home together genuinely enjoyable.

Overall, the staff at Urbanbubble have made this journey smooth and stress‑free, and we’re very grateful for their help.

Thank you!

Xavier was extremely professional

Xavier was extremely professional, I spoke with a lot of estate agents recently and he was the only single one who was prompt in his replies and I didn’t feel I was having to chase. Really good experience corresponding with him and he was so friendly and engaging in person. He definitely makes me want to continue using Urban Bubble in my property search

I was searching for a new place to rent in Manchester having gotten a job in the city. I reached out to urbanbubble and immediately got loads of potential apartments sent to me the very next day by Johanne, I requested a viewing and got that sorted as soon as I was available. Alessandra met me at the property and did an amazing job showing me the potential listings. I'm very satisfied with how prompt the whole process was and how Johanne and Alessandra handled it all.
I'd highly recommend urbanbubble if you're looking to lease a property through them given my very good experience with them

Alessandra was brilliant throughout the process. Responsive and helpful from the initial enquiry until the deposit was put down. She was keen to answer the questions I had prepared and gave honest answers, helping me feel confident and not rushed or pushed into a decision. So far I’ve had a decent experience with the agency in general, it’s been clear and smooth.

Really positive experience with the service

Really positive experience with the Urban Bubble team. Alessandra, Johanne, and Dora all played a part in securing my property quickly and even negotiated my rent down from £1,150 to £1,085. Communication throughout was great, and Dora came in on a Saturday for my move-in day & when I ran into an issue out of hours, the team picked up and sorted it. Couldn't ask for more from the people side of things. 4 stars.
