“Scam website. Beware!
I signed up to a trial and called three real estate agents for properties advertised on Rentola.com.au. Each of the agents informed me the listings were very old and were rented a long time ago. They also advised the advertised monthly price is in fact a weekly price and it is a known fault with Rentola.com.au website.
I contacted Rentola but they never replied to me. I successfully got my money back via chargeback via my bank.”
“My experience with Rentola was terrible. First of all, the website is full of scammers, second - it was an entire quest to find an "unsubscribe" button. After that I have received an additional bill to pay and numerous emails asking to pay so to avoid "consequences that we both don't want". (what is it, I wonder?) Is it a rental service or a scammers gang? Terrible, do not recommend it to anyone.”
“Hi there guys,
I’m highly recommending for you to read this elaborative review on Rentola written by LaughMars in Reddit, he nailed it! I only wish I read it before I subscribed to this company. We should all unite and help to close this fraudulent company down. I can’t believe they still exist after all the negative reviews.”
“ABSOLUTE SCAM. I cancelled and wrote to them making it very clear I did not want their service but they keep charging me and sending me unwanted emails. DO NOT USE RENTOLA. SPREAD THE WORD. This site should be shut down. People should stop giving them money.”
“STAY AWAY FROM THIS SITE
I run an Estate Agency and this site should not be trusted. Not only are they are advertising our properties without our consent, and those that are showing are already let. They are charging the public to sign up which is a clear breach of the law. Tenants DO NOT have to pay to sign up or pay to view properties. I know there is a lack of rental property out there but please please stay away. Best advice to call agents directly.”
“Fake account people be careful these guys are stealing peoples money.They aren’t providing any accommodation.One day you will definitely regret this stealing you are doing”
“Scam. They'll force you to make an account to get the contact details for properties, which aren't even real by the way! So many numbers I called tell me these properties aren't theirs or don't know about "rentola".
They'll lure you in with €1 for 7 days then €39 per month saying you can cancel within 7 days. But they don't let you cancel before 24 hours and delete your account so you can't cancel after! Absolute scam.”
“They just copy links onto a webpage .Fake: what the way they is in a very gray area. It could br considered as deception. Have nothing to with this set up. I am sure Intpol will catchup with them so0n or latetlr”
“This is a scam website. They just scan websites like immoweb, era, etc and relist the properties. They charge you heavy like 40 euro per month.
Please stay away from this website.”
“BEWARE OF RECURRING PAYMENTS ! I clicked by mistake on the free trial, never used the site and then hammered with a bill for £35 which is extortionate.
If I hadn't noticed it I'd be paying every month !
I'd advise anyone to be very careful dealing with a site that charges so much for such a service and recurring payments like this. Rentola are very clever they charge £1 for 7 days but there is 28 days mentioned in the pitch so scanning quickly as we do you think you have a month, most of us forget anyway and unless you check your statements every month ........Be careful”
