Made finding a house for uni much easier. The bills are really affordable in comparison to other places and the way their app is set up makes things convenient. Can’t recommend more.

Great customer service

Great customer service. We had a problem with logging onto the app & although we were unable to get through by telephone, our emails were answered efficiently & effectively. Patrick was so helpful & very courteous, his customer care was excellent.

Great Bills Package

We took a bills package through Housr and it's been a smooth process for us. The app is easy to use and lets us submit meter readings without any issues. There's also some great offers at local coffee shops that we've used to save some money.

SCAM

We never agreed to enter to a contract with this company. It is within our full legal right to inquire into a quote for our bills and yet, somehow we are now being billed £120 cancellation fee for a service we have never utilised. They keep saying that it is a student friendly service yet with the terms and conditions so small, this is completely unacceptable and a complete scam- to the point where it is bordering on misrepresentation and they should rethink their advertising. We have tried to contact them several times and have fallen on short ears and yet they keep sending us emails to pay for a service we have never accepted to be legally bound to.

Hi Susie,

We’re sorry to hear your frustration, but we’d like to clarify what has actually happened here.
On 27 May 2025 at 15:18, a full sign-up was completed through our website. As part of that process, you must click to confirm that you agree to our terms and conditions and that you are entering into a full package agreement.

Immediately afterwards, at 3:47 PM on the same day, a member of our team also sent you a message confirming that you had signed up. If you had let us know at this point that it was a mistake, you would have of course been able to cancel within the 14-day cooling-off period with no fees.
You chose not to respond to this message, showing no indication that this was a mistake or that you wished to cancel.

The first communication we received from you to cancel, came after the 14-day period had passed.
By that point, the package setup for your property was already underway, which is why a cancellation fee was applied in line with the agreement.

We understand cancellation fees are frustrating, but they only apply when after the cooling-off window.

Kindest regards,

False Contract

We never agreed to enter a contract with this company, having only sought a quote for our bills as we have done with other companies since it is our right to do so. After simply seeking a quote, we were told that we had entered a contract which were unwilling to enter and unknowing of since there was nothing to suggest the entering of a contract simply by seeking a quote. This is a legal issue and could possibly be deemed misrepresentation. Now we are being billed £120 to cancel this contract we were unwillingly entered into. We have made multiple attempts to contact the company and sought this issue out however we have received no help and have instead been told to pay this absurdly large sum of money.

Hi Gabby,

We’re sorry to read this review.
We want to reassure you and anyone reading that we would never set up a contract for someone who had only requested a quote.

With only a first name provided, we’re unable to fully investigate your case. We have requested more information, which you unfortunately declined to provide.

Our process for setting up a contract is straightforward: is only activated once a customer has agreed to the terms, either verbally or via our website sign-up. At that point, full confirmation is sent by email, and a 14-day cooling-off period applies where cancellation is completely free.
Cancellation fees are only ever applied after this period.

If you believe something has gone wrong in your case, please reach out directly to support@housrapp.co.uk with your full details so we can review it properly and resolve things as quickly as possible.

Best,
Housr Support Team

Customer service is NON-EXISTENT

Customer service is non-existent at this company.
No one answers any of the phone options and emails are not responded too.
We signed up to Housr in June and have been paying £330 a month between 3 of us. We moved into the property last Saturday to find we are still receiving gas and electricity bills. In July we booked to have the internet installed between 1 and 6 on Monday 22nd Sept. We got through to customer services in the morning through the set up a new account phone number no other number answers only cuts you off when you have been on hold for 40minutes plus. Shay assured us an engineer would be with us between 1 and 6 but couldn't give us a 2 hour time slot. While waiting I went outside and got talking to a neighbour and she mentioned that a Virgin engineer had been outside at 10;30 that morning trying to get access to the upstairs flat. We rang the broadband department they said it wasn't for us. We rang again at 5:10 after 4 hours of waiting to be told that there had been a mistake and Virgin had called in the morning.
Since then no one has answered our calls or emails.
We have no internet and start online lectures tomorrow. An absolute disgrace of a company.

Ongoing issue with Housr

Ongoing issue with Housr.
Avoid at all costs.

I attempted to receive a quote from the Housr Website upon moving into my new flat. Ultimately myself and my flatmate did not choose to go with this company.

However according to Housr. This quote process then opens a full account with them. Something myself and my flat mate were unaware of until an unwanted switch of our energy provider was attempted.

I got in touch with the customer support team via email and was told a £120 cancellation fee was to be paid to close the account. Something I found unacceptable as we were unaware this account had been created.

I then attempted ring Housr customer support several times with the request of deleting this so called account along with our personal details. With no answer. I eventually got through and was told a phone call between my housemate and a housr representative was made about this account.

No such phone call has ever taken place. The only contact made with Housr had been through myself trying to settle this issue.
Neither of us agreed to this account then or now. Nor have we used their ‘services’ for any utilities.

They make it impossible to get in touch, avoid replying to your emails and won’t call you back.

How they expect an £120 fee from students on a student budget who were simply trying to receive a quote is ridiculous.

Upon reading the other reviews left on trust pilot. It seems this is a reoccurring issue with other students.

I would advise all students to avoid Housr for their bills and even a simple quote if you don’t want to be exploited, in a drawn out process and threats of fees.

I would appreciate if this issue could be settled with Housr and ultimately our details wiped from their data. As I do not want any relation to this company again.

Hi Cameron,

We’re sorry to hear about your experience and understand how frustrating it must feel to be without Wi-Fi, especially when moving into a new property.

To clarify the situation: your router was delivered a day later than planned, and when you flagged that it wasn’t working, we immediately booked a socket installation for the date you requested.

On that visit, however, engineers were unable to complete the work as the bedroom they needed access to was locked, and you were unable to unlock it.
The appointment was therefore rebooked to ensure the installation could go ahead. At the time, we also understood you hadn’t yet fully moved in, which made it more difficult to resolve things quickly.

I can see this issue has been fully resolved for you now, and if you need any further help, please don't hesitate to reach out.

Kindest regards,
Housr Customer Support Team

I never agreed to a contract with these…

I never agreed to a contract with these people, only used the app to get a sponsorship for my society and now being told I owe them money for a service when I’ve emailed saying I wish to cancel whatever I’ve been put on! There was no contract agreed on my end, OR my other housemates so I find it ridiculous I’m being threatened with payment plans and etc when I’ve NEVER agreed to a contract NOR have my housemates. Please avoid this scam service!!!

Hi Lily,

We’re sorry to hear about your frustration. For clarity, a sign-up was completed through our website on 23 May 2025, which confirms agreement to the full terms and conditions and setup of the package at the point of submission.
That’s why the account was set up and communications around payment followed.

That said, we can confirm this matter has now been fully settled and your account is closed

Taking Advantage of Students

I was recommended Housr for our student bills by our estate agents and had a call to discuss a quote. During the call, they said a contract would follow and at no point it was made clear that I was agreeing to anything. It seemed all terms would be in the written contract that they would send later which I could review with my housemates.

We chose not to go with this company and never signed the contract. However, when we tried to set up our own bills, they objected the switch by claiming that a 'verbal contract' had been made and charged us a £90 cancellation fee.

At no point during the call was it made clear that I was entering into a binding verbal contract. I felt misled and pressured into an agreement that I had no opportunity to review. Everything was really rushed and honestly really exploitative for students.

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY!!

Hi Lilly,

I’m sorry to hear you felt misled, that’s not the experience we want for anyone.

For clarity, on 6 May, a contractually binding verbal agreement was made on the call. During that call, our advisor explained that:

The agreement was contractually binding,

our full terms & conditions would follow via DocuSign (which was sent),

and a 14-day cooling-off period would begin from the verbal agreement, during which you could cancel without fees.

We then sent a confirmation email on 10 June, along with further follow-ups outlining the package and next steps. When a switch to another supplier was later requested after the cooling-off period, our system objected to the transfer (a standard industry process when there’s an active agreement).

I can see your account has now been fully cancelled and settled, and there is nothing else you need to do.

Best,

Definitely recommend!

Really impressed with this company. They’ve made sorting and splitting bills so simple, which has saved me a lot of stress as a student. Big shoutout to Patrick in customer support — he’s always been quick to reply and super helpful whenever I’ve had a question. Makes the whole process feel easy and reliable.

DO NOT USE!!!

DO NOT USE!!!
They called me when I asked to find out more about the bills package, but we decided against it. Months later I found out they were claiming I set up a ‘verbal contract’ in this phone call, and tried to get me to pay £120 cancellation fee. They even tried switching my contract with the supplier we went for, which I had to stop! I had to ask for transcripts of the phone call (which they only send me part of) and get legal advice for them to finally waive the fees, after weeks of emailing. Complete entrapment of students! Do not use at all!!!

Hi Lois,

We’re sorry to hear you’ve come away feeling this way, but we’d like to clarify what happened.
On 15th April 2025, a full verbal agreement was given over the phone, confirming a sign up and that you agreed to the full terms and conditions of the package.
A detailed confirmation email was then sent on 9th June, followed by four further emails from our team in September.

When you later raised a dispute about the cancellation fee, we carried out a full review of both the original call and the follow-up communication. While the call clearly included an agreement to the terms, we did identify a point where you had asked for additional details that were not sent. In light of this, and as a gesture of goodwill, we waived the cancellation fees in full.

We understand how important transparency is, especially for students, and we take these matters very seriously. Our goal is always to make sure customers feel fully informed and supported. In this case, while we stand by that an agreement was made, we believe the decision to waive the fees was the right one.

Best,
Customer Support Team

I spoke with Shay about my student…

I spoke with Shay about my student house bills and he was so helpful, rang me as soon as I looked at a quote online to answer any follow up questions and help me with details. He was also really speedy with reply’s on email or text when I had questions and worries. Would definitely recommend to other especially students as it makes doing bills so much easier!

Shay’s Customer Service

I needed help sorting out bills for my flat on very short notice, and Shay absolutely delivered. His turnaround time was unbelievably fast—he responded to every issue with clarity and speed, even when I threw things at him last minute. Nothing was too much trouble, and he handled everything with calm professionalism and a genuine desire to make things easier.

What really stood out was how accessible he made the whole process. Whether it was email, text, or calls, Shay was reachable in multiple ways, which made communication effortless for everyone involved. He explained things in simple terms, flagged potential issues before they became problems, and helped me feel completely confident in the decisions I was making.

If you’re looking for someone who’s not only efficient and knowledgeable but also incredibly easy to work with, Shay is the one. I’d recommend him in a heartbeat.
