Advantages: Few
Disadvantages: Wasted money
I have used Loot quite a lot in the past years.
Loot is a magazine where people place adverts on virtually anything. I use it to look for accomodation, and, in the last year, since when I took charge of a 3 bed house which I am resubletting, to find tenants.
Well, I must say that overall the service is gone down, each time I place and advert less and less people call. I know this may be because of the general housing market out there, but I do not think so.
I think it si to do with their circulation.
they charge you 20 quids to place and ad for 5 days, which I find good value when you get 30 people calling every day, but I had 10ish the 1st day, 5ish the 2nd day and 2 today.
If you call them, by the way the number is 08700 434343 they are quite stroppy.
I had once probs in the past since they wanted to charge me higher rates because in their mind I was a trader. This is because previous tenants had left the house to go and live in a new flat, and were looking for new flatmates and asked me if they could use the tel of our house, to which I did not object, since on that occasion I had already relet the property, but Loot did nto want to believe this and in the end I was told "ok, we give you the benefit of doubt"
The end of thsi story is. If anyoen knows an alternative to loot, please let me know!
I am not happy with them at all!
