Frequently Asked Questions

Is my review really anonymous?

Yes. We never share who wrote a review. Your identity is always protected, even when we verify your tenancy.

How are reviews verified?

We cross-reference tenancy documents against declared identity details and independent property records to confirm genuine rental relationships. Reviews that pass are marked as verified — those that don't are clearly labelled.

What is a Healthy Homes rating?

The Healthy Homes Standards require all rentals to meet minimum standards for heating, insulation, ventilation, moisture, and draught stopping. ratemyflat makes it easy to see how a property scores — and whether tenant experience matches what's on paper.

Can I change a review once I've made it?

Yes, you can update your reviews at any time.
