Thanks for your comments I will take them on board.

As I can say again: If xxx had advertised this rental for a higher
amount to begin with we probably would have applied as well.
But this is not about the rental at all, it is about codes & practices
xxx seems to be familiar with.
In terms of "the act states we must work in our principles best
interest at all times" does not imply to work with any kind of method.
So yyy's statement " this is usually not our practice" doesnt really
have any ground to stand on...
In terms of "giving us an equal opportunity" : xxx/ yyy did
not give us an equal opportunity at all - By giving every tenant an
equal opportunity, applications containing "handling fees", "higher
rents" etc. should not be accepted.
I have noticed another property advertised by xxx (adresse)
with an interestingly low rent. I wonder if this will be auctioned as
well - It wouldnt surprise me at all.

> > Hi thankyou for your email we had many applications on the property
concerned when processing rental applications we refer all applications to
the owner, the act states we must work in our principles best interest at
all times, had yyy not asked you to increase your rental amount the
property would have been leased to the applicant with the higher rental
amount as instructed by the owner, yyy was only trying to give you an
equal opportunity to sucure the property, I am sorry you feel this way about
xxx best of luck finding a property regards andrew johns. xxx
