TrustpilotNo respect for tenants, choose anywhere else
Spoken to like a second class citizen any time I needed anything, our contract said we would be contacted 2 months before the tenancy ended to see if we wanted to renew. When I chased this up after it didn't happen, I was told that I had to speak directly to my landlord. We then got a section 21 from reeds rains, but whenever we tried to contact them for help we were told again 'speak to your landlord'. They also copy and pasted my emails to them (Reeds Rains) and sent them to our landlord without our permission.They might not care about us now that we're 'just tenants', but when we are buying next year they will care when we go absolutely nowhere near them.ETA they now have our old property listed for rent with blatant lies on the advert, one being that there is OFF ROAD PARKING (there is not anything of the sort). Don't trust them!

TrustpilotWorst company I've ever dealt with
Worst company I've ever dealt withI beg anyone thinking of renting with these people to stay well away. In April the isolator switch to my shower became jammed on, was emitting heat and giving a strange fishy smell. I Googled it and it suggested the strange smell suggested compromised wiring and it was high risk for an electrical fire. I called out an emergency electrician and he stated that the initial fitting was wrong and that the shower was not safe for use. I reported this to Reeds Rains on 25th of April and despite chasing them repeatedly it still hadn't been fixed by the end of July when I moved out, so I essentially went 3 months without a working shower.I was given all sorts of nonsense excuses about the ticket being accidentally closed accidentally and then told that they couldn't find a contractor to come out to where I lived (which was Wilmslow so not exactly in the mountains). Eventually they sent an engineer who was a gas engineer. The problem is that there is no gas in the property! So again the problem was reported and still they did nothing.On top of that, they are now trying to keep my deposit to cover disrepair that was present before I moved in - they are essentially trying to get me to redecorate the landlords flat for free. They have the cheek to make claims against me but do not feel obliged to maintain the property on their end with regards to the shower.I've convinced 3 people to not rent with Reeds Rains and will continue to convince as many as I can not to. Save yourself a lot of hassle and stay away!

TrustpilotSelling a rental property
The business responded to my request to sell my rental property quickly and professionally. They explained timings with regards to tenants contracts and liaised with the tenant to accommodate viewings and a quick sale (pending contracts etc). I am very pleased with the way in which the sale has been handled to date and would recommend them to anyone.

TrustpilotDonna Hargreaves terrible attitude
The Preston branch has a branch manager named Donna Hargreaves who is horrendously unprofessional and appears to have no emotional control for some who claims to have 33 years of customer facing experience as an estate agent. She was told to CC secondary buyer in emails after her oversight and advised us not to tell her how to act.

TrustpilotWorst Service ever
We had to experience a horrendous service, We were intimidated and bullied by a person called Tony from Cheadle branch. I cant imagine the trauma myself and my wife went through. I wouldn't recommend them to anyone. However Samantha was very polite and helpful.

TrustpilotPoor experience
Absolutely useless service. No surprise that people could not sell with this agents. Wanted a viewing but after multiple calls over a week, manged to get an appointment. When actually got there, the tenants were not informed of the booked visit. Promised a call back to rearrange the appt, but nothing. No responses even after leaving so many messages with the team. Very poor and unprofessional service. I wouldn't use them to buy, sell or manage my lets after this experience. What a disappointing experience 😪.

Rude, degrading staff. Not helpful at all very judgmental and cocky. Would never ever like to sell my house or buy a house from them. Andrew was fabulous everyone else just total discussing rude behaviour, no empathy and just rude.

TrustpilotChaos, inexperience, under qualified
Staff do not have a clue what they are doing by the looks of it, received so many documents littered with so many errors from all kinds of departments that do not communicate with one another. They dodge questions and facts like politicians or criminals, too scared to tell the landlord when he is wrong and unlawful or breach of their own terms of a tenancy agreement. Negligent or maybe even considered fraudulent tampering of notices to make their documents appear valid. Even down to simple maths (KS1 addition that my 6 year old could complete) they do not seem to be able to grasp. Denial demonstrated on all things that they are incorrect about, which I’m clever enough to have all in emails/writing. I’m embarrassing to have this agent operating, I’m not saying I know everything but I’ve had to correct and school them on a lot of aspects of our tenancy, so much so that I’m tempted to send them an invoice for my time! Avoid this agent at all costs, they side with landlords even if they are in the wrong and simply do as they are told by their clients, this isn’t always the right or ethical thing to do and certainly In need of some training/business transformation or redundancies. Avoid!

TrustpilotAVOID AT ALL COSTS
Absolutely disgusting treatment from the agents and landlord. I don’t think the box is quite big enough to fit all of the problems we have encountered in the last year. The lack of communication is atrocious, and the inexperienced staff is embarrassing. Don’t think they know that my partner worked for an estate agents and knows all the legalities of certain procedures which they clearly don’t know. Avoid at all cost.
