Agent won't provide receipt because of "GDPR"

by Gwsc1

Hi all

I'm starting a new tenancy agreement in 2 weeks, we're yet to sign the tenancy agreement. As part of the accepted offer conditions, I asked for the property to be professionally cleaned before we move in, which the landlord accepted as part of the offer (I have this in writing)....

Both these things are a matter of choice (making decisions based on information)

Is our agent a bit rubbish, or should we be making more COVID allowances?

We're accidental first-time landlords, having moved overseas for work. We appointed an agent to fully manage and let the house (based on recommendations locally and interviewing a few). We're pretty unimpressed so far, and keen to know if we should be putting our foot down on some of these issues. The...
