I have also received a scam email about a business rates credit which I do not have

I responded to an email and made an enquiry over the phone. Very convincing lady on the phone called Hayley Perry but alarm bells rang when they insisted someone on site who is authorised to sign the paperwork for the assessor..I then checked Trust Pilot...lesson learned..if it sounds too good to be true it probably is! I will advise my local Trading Standards.

I received a spam email from them saying there was "an unclaimed Business Rates credit note against your business premises", and I should contact them to claim back thousands of pounds. The business they wrote to has no premises. Clearly a scam. Be very wary of these people.

DO NOT SIGN UP WITH THIS COMPANY! I would avoid at all costs! They come to site do a survey are very convincing, they amend the contract so you pay an amount (about 4k) to say if unsuccessful will refund you. They file the claim for a completely different reason than agreed, the claim fails, they appeal it (takes about 6 months) the claim is rejected again, they then bill you for another claim that they have not done. You ask for the money back as per the contract, they then become aggressive trying to charge you for cancelling a contract. We managed to file a CCJ they appealled it twice, it was rejected twice they lied about not receiving docs etc but we had proof in writing, finally received refund after sending baliffs in!

Scummy company. Avoid at all costs. They rely on business to business not having a cooling off period. They lie you to you, wait for you to sign on the line and then ask for money. They also spam all the UK businesses they can find until they hook a fish.

Received an unsolicited email purporting to be from this business saying that there is "unclaimed Business Rates credit note against your business premises" which must be claimed by the end of the month. Two problems - My company ceased active trading over 10 years ago - It has never owned business premises. So either this business is spamming based on incorrect information or someone else is using their ID for some sort of scam. Looking at other reviews I am not the only person receiving unsolicited mail purporting to be from this organisation.

Received a SPAM email from them telling us there was a Property Tax Overpayment - we don't pay property tax, never have! So by definition a complete bogus scam. How can we rate as zero stars (or even negative)?

Absolutely awful - essentially legal con artists - do not trust them. We took them on to improve our rating, it was marginally changed by the local council - they had no influence over the change as it was made before they submitted their review and that didn't change anything when I pointed that out they were useless, didn't bother to do anything further just chased for payment - you are far better off submitting your own request for a review to your local council - DO NOT USE Hampton-Lovett.

I can’t explain because they have lied to me crazy and they have took a lot of my money for free after promising me the earth and I can’t believe I have fell into this trap no communication at all now because they won’t come back to you after leaving messages after messages I am ready to go to court with these thief’s

I run a few online businesses. None of them have any physical presence in the UK, yet each of these businesses has had Hampton Lovett repeatedly contact them saying there is an unclaimed business rates credit against their property. There are no properties associated with any of these businesses. Obviously a bunch of chancers spamming the email addresses of every business with a .uk website, hoping to hook a rube. Good businesses get word of mouth referrals and don't need to rely on such shady business practices to get customers.
