Forced To Sign Agreement With Borderline Illegal Energy Supplier
Reeds Rains tenancy agreement forced the Electricity sign-over to Spark Energy Ltd. a well known scam company. Be aware of this clause in your contract before you sign and fight it hard.

Before moving with this agency
Before moving with this agency, we lived in 3 other flats. We never had problems with the other landlords, but this people is something out of this world. First of all I would like to clarify that they never played fair with us: in the visit to the house I told to the agent that I really wanted to rent the property, I even said to her to sign in the moment of the visit, but she told me that it was ok, that they were going to keep the property for me and that I could do the paperwork the next day. Next day, when I called her, she told me that the landlord accepted another offer. I think that was just a way to make me say that I was able to pay 6 months in a row. And so, the landlord accepted my offer.We moved to their property in February. When we moved there, the storage heaters were not working. At this point, I want to highlight that we moved with a 40 days baby. When you pay 6100 GBP before moving to a house, you expect a service. For 20 days, in February, with a baby, we lived without heaters. They just kept saying that maybe I didn´t know how to turn it on. I had to write them in a non friendly way to get a handyman in the house fixing it. And he had to fix it, because it was damaged.They came 2 or 3 times to visit the house to check everything was right. As in the contract, if the agent would have realized that something had to be repaired or cleaned, or misplaced, she had to aware us in order to do something about it.Well, in all the visits, she came to the house, checked it in 2 minutes, and said: everything is ok. We even got emails after each visit saying everything was ok.When we moved out, they sent us a email saying that the house needed a deep clean, 7 new bulbs (we stayed there for 10 months), and apart from the deep clean, they wanted to charge us for cleaning the door of the microwave (it just have a water vapour spoil in the door), for cleaning the door of a dishwasher that we never turned on, and they wanted to charge us for some mould and dump. Around 400 GBP for this. They even wanted to charge us to buy new curtains because of the damp , when curtains were made of a material 100% washable.The pictures of the original inventory had nothing to do with the inventory they did at the end of the rental. The first one, was a bit blurry, and the pictures of it were taken from a distance of everything. The pictures of the inventory they did when we moved out... What a crime. They did pictures with zoom of every single centimeter of the house, they moved furniture that weight around 50kg to do pictures of the floor below it. They even did a picture of the inside of a bin that it was not in the original inventory!So, they wanted to deduct 638GBP from our deposit, (we couldn´t get a VAT invoice, and the receipt they sent us was clearly suspicious: in the receipt one of the concepts was "Towel needs to be removed from kitchen floor 1 £4.00" Towel that we left there to protect the wooden floor from the water that could fall from the non-no-frost fridge). But I submitted a case through Mydeposit, and mydeposit has just given 340 GBP to them. If you are living in a Reeds Rains´s property, be aware. Keep this in mind. If you are not living in a Reeds Rains property, avoid them.The reviews with 5 stars are because before you move in their properties, a Barbie girl, ask you for the 5 stars review.
Hello Rafael, I am very sorry you have been disappointed by the service you have received from our Salford Quays office. From our records, I believe that maintenance issues during your tenancy were acted upon promptly. I also dispute that the check out process was in any way an attempt to withhold your deposit monies unfairly.Please could you call me on 0161 236 9088 or email me at ian.jordan@reedsrains.co.uk and I will fully investigate the matter for you. Kind Regards,Ian Jordan - Lettings Manager.

Not impressed with Reed's Rains…
Not impressed with Reed's Rains Burnley..They are very underhand at using tactics when trying to sell. They alsi Contact you when your out of Contract to persuade you to take another viewings .There Contracts seem illegall, or misleading to say the least.They never give feedback by on viewings, even when they have trampled all over your house.Also they only ever seen to get viewings of people who have no funds ready to purchase.. Absolute unprofessional agent.

Interfering sales agent put my purchase at risk
I bought a property through them over a year ago and I spotted an issue with the property during the viewing that I mentioned when I made my offer would need to be rectified before completion. My offer was accepted and the seller was dealing with resolving the issue with the building management company but it was taking time which was fine. The the agent for Reeds Rain involved himself because he was frustrated with the hold up which did't help anybody and kept trying to cajole me into accepting the problem and went so far as to lie to me and say the seller was going to withdraw the agreement to sell to me. I had the sellers details so I spoke to them directly and confirmed it was untrue which shows a lack of professionalism by the Reeds Rains agent in interfering in an issue that has a large monetary effect on an expensive purchase without requesting their involvement and attempting to blackmail me to drop it. No thanks to Reeds Rains I had the problem with the property fixed through my own efforts.

Premium price but not premium service - Holderness Road, Hull branch
This estate agent's fees are nearly double that of other estate agents in Hull to sell a property and the service they provide is appalling. They wanted to charge me an additional £200 for photos of my property 3 weeks before Christmas. I refused and took photos of the property myself. After the sale was agreed I waited a month for an update on how the sale was progressing and in the end had to ask for it. In that time the Sales Associate dealing with my property had left the business and my buyer had gone on holiday without putting a mortgage in place. Reeds Rains never proactively informed me of either of these things. When I complained about their bad service the Sales Associate was rude told me 'it wasn't her job to give me updates on the sale' and that it was my solicitor's responsibility. The Branch Manager simply said 'he took everything on board' but never actively did anything to manage the situation. They also made several error on official documentation and never provided me with written details of all viewings and offers.They made the process difficult and stressful so I ended up contact my buyer directly so that I could complete the sale as Reeds Rains offered me no assistance. Reeds Rains are one of the most expensive estate agents in Hull and from the service I received the only way they helped was to post my property on the property marketplace websites - something most estate agents do to sell a property. If you are considering selling your property in the future please help yourself and use a local estate agents, not this national company. Their fees will be less and you will probably get a better service.

Extremely bad service!!!
Extremely bad service!!!I have been renting a house for more than 2 years at Chesterfield ( Derbyshire), when I ended the renting period they wanted to charge me for everything to obtain as much is possible from my deposit. Horrendous, I have been an honest and a great tenant and the house was inmaculate when I left. So I initiated a complain with Mydeposits.co.uk whichis dissapointing as they accept new complains from the agency once you submitted all the evidences ( dirty trick really, they work in partnership ). Nearly 3 months now and still I haven't received a penny from my deposit. This people don't have any respect for honest people. AVOID THEM!!!

Hayley Hughes of Reeds Rains, St. Helens, is great at her job. She will not give up, works diligently for both the company, the tenant and the landlord. A rare commodity these days. Well done Hayley!Michelle Moore.

5* Reed Rains - Clevedon North Somerset
I would thoroughly recommend Reed Rains Clevedon, if you are looking to sell or buy a property. I found Craig and his team to be extremely efficient and professional at all times. They kept me informed and were always friendly and courteous. They work hard to achieve a good selling price.Not at all surprised they achieved an award this year very well deserved. No 1 in Clevedon for customer service in my experience.
