Wholly incompetent estate agent

<p>In the process of looking to buy a property, I made the mistake of contacting a certain estate agent from Living Link Realty in Pretoria. After providing extremely specific requirements for a property, said agent kept bombarding me with e-mail after e-mail of propertly listings from other areas.</p> <p> </p> <p>I kept replying asking two things:</p> <p>1. Not to send listings that are in areas other than those specified.</p> <p>2. Not to send listing that did not meet general requirements.</p> <p>3. Not to include my e-mail address on large, public (cc) e-mail address lists when sending out these e-mails. </p> <p>These requests were neither acknowledged, nor influence the steady flow of unwanted listings.</p> <p> </p> <p>After no longer being in the market for a property, I indicated as much as a reponse to the next inappropriate e-mail, and yet again expressed my frustration. I received a snooty reponse noting that the e-mails were *just* sent as a courtesy, that there is no 'list', and that I will be bothered no longer. Alas, these mails have now continued. </p> <p> </p> <p>If you value an estate agent that is able to follow simple instructions, steer clear.</p>
