On this point all I would say is avoid Foxtons.

This site has lots of private property rental so there's no agency fees
http://www.gumtree.com/london/2548_1.html

This site might give you some initial options:
http://www.findaproperty.com/listcounties.aspx?edid=00&salerent=1&countyid=11

As you have no UK bank account, you might find it easier in the
private sector because you are going to struggle to meet the
background checks required by most agencies.

Good luck,
