Multiple Dissolved Businesses and Unlawful Company Practices
I encourage everyone to do their research before engaging with this company. The owner’s previous companies: ASLAN HOMES LTD was dissolved via compulsory strike-off on 08/2/2022 and ISLAND HERITAGE LTD was dissolved via compulsory strike-off on 16/7/2019. Note when doing your research, CKB Estate Agents is not a registered company with Companies House. BICER & KEMAL LTD or HEISEL PROPERTY LTD are 2 of the businesses that are registered under the owner’s name, both operating for buying, selling and letting of own or leased real estate. My experience with them: CKB estate agents accepted our application for tenancy and had us pay a holding deposit on 4/8/2023. After over a month of continuously assuring us we would be able to move in, Kemal Bicer informed me 5 days before the move in date on 11/9/2023, that I did not pass referencing due to inadequate information and that I needed to pay 6 months of rent up front to move in. Obviously that was not financially possible and we were left with nowhere to live, to top it off Kemal then refused to refund our holding deposit which is completely illegal. I don’t know how Kemal can sleep at night, for the sake of illegally pocketing £450 and having just put 2 girls in a situation of homelessness. He is completely aware that it is unlawful to withhold a holding deposit due to “a failed reference check” and he refuses to refund the money, despite himself and his staff continuously providing false and misleading information and making us wait through so many avoidable delays. It is no surprise that the government has previously shut down 2 of his prior businesses.
