Avoid this company at all costs

This estate agents are the worst I have ever dealt with. I have had a deposit issue with them since 2022 and this has remained unresolved because the branch manager is very unhelpful, obnoxious and rude. She doesn’t have the word assist or help in her vocabulary. I have had several conversations with her via email but somehow on my recent contact she has sent a reply citing confidentiality. Yet she has sent emails with personal information and details previously. After that she commands you to call the office phone which is never answered.

The worst experience I have ever had…

The worst experience I have ever had with an agency.They are rude and not professional. They pretended to have the money via call before I even received a proper contract for the flat.Then, they told me to get the keys and find the flat by myself. They did not even show me where the flat is. I will avoid to have deals with them in the future.

Avoid this agency by all means

Avoid this agency by all means. They attract landlords who will lie to you about the history of the property and it’s current state (mine was infested with massive rats which the landlord claim to know nothing about until I called exterminators who found evidence from a different extermination team)The staff will make promises to you and not fulfil them ( I agreed to take a contract pending they would clean the property, however it was inhabitable for 3 days before the landlord arrived to clean. Agency promised to refund those three days but choose to ignore this state 6 months down the line and this cost me money as the tenant.I have never written a review in my life and I’ve rented for 10+ now and I have experience a lot. I would never recommend this agency even to my worse enemy.

I found James extremely helpful. He works in a professional manner and respond quickly when helped needed. It took me by surprised when his team found tenant for my house within 1 week! I highly recommend ~Bridgefords and their staff team as their service was of the utmost brilliance. Bridgefords should be proud to have such individuals within their workforce.PositiveResponsiveness, Quality, Professionalism, Value

First home - couldn't have done it without them!

I recently bought my first home and couldn't have done it without the help of Chloe, Ryan and Gemma. They offered their support from start to finish and always explained what was happening. They were always there to talk and would reply to emails quickly. They really eased the stress of moving into a new home. I will definitely be using them again in the future and will be recommending them to family and friends who move within the area. Thanks so much to the whole team at Bridgfords x

DO NOT USE THESE!!!!

DO NOT USE THESE!!!!The worst estate agents ever. If you’re considering them, do not do it. So at the end of October i needed to move out. So i found a flat, viewed it, applied, got accepted. So obviously i handed in my notice at my current housing. I requested to send my boyfriend to pick the keys up as i was in work until 6pm. Double, tripple checked if they needed any confirmation for him to collect them. Was advised they needed nothing as they would recognise him from the viewing. At the point of the keys being handed over they told my boyfriend he had to sign on my behalf… As the estate agent walked my boyfriend up the stairs of the flat she advised him that some pidgeons had broken in and pood all over the floor. Baring in mind at this point, i’d spoken to her on that day and paid over £1000 to their company. It is just me on the agreement so it’s a breach of DPA that they advised my partner that and not me on the call where i paid them money. I asked to get keys early so i could move in my stuff. So with the bird poo all over the floor i did ask how they expected me to move my furniture over that. After confronting the company about advising my partner to sign my name i was advised WE should have known that was wrong. It took a week to sort this out, i have now had to find other housing as i had about 2.5/3 weeks until im a 19 year old homeless person… After displaying my annoyance to the company the rudely asked if i could live at my parents or my boyfriends… I have finally managed to get keys for a new flat however now i only have 4 days until my tenancy runs out. Baring in mind i work 7:30am-6pm so now i’m having to rush everything in 4 days. Also, the day i picked up the keys i was told they didn’t have the key for the front door of the flat building which is by the car park. So now i’m left with 4 days to move my stuff in & no access to the building. I must admit, i do have a key to the other door on the building. however to get to that door you have to cross a bridge, go up and down some stairs therefore is the complete opposite of convenient. This estate agents is a joke and has only caused me stress. If i didn’t have limited time to leave my current property i would not be staying with them.

Absolutely disgusted with this place

Absolutely disgusted with this place. Went to rent a house. Discussed my situation my income everything I could I was upfront about. Was told I had the house and asked to pay a holding deposit and hand my notice in to my current landlord. House definitely ours. Had 2 guarantors which was all accepted by the landlord. Start packing my house have my current landlord accept my notice and put my house back on the market. 2 weeks later get told I can no longer have the house I failed credit check. They were told from day 1 I would fail hence the guarantors. Was told I came back bankrupt which is not true. Asked if I could do anything to prove this wasn't true. Was told doesnt matter you can't have the house. So no home to move into and a home I have to leave with 5 kids in tow. Disgusted with them. Oh and lose the holding deposit they said I needed to place after being told I was accepted. Literally left us with no home!!!!

Thank you to Danielle and the team for never giving up with the sale of our recent property. Even through two major shifts in the economic climate they still managed to arrange viewings and provide regular updates. Thank you and all the best

These agents act like robots

These agents act like robots with no human face. Wanted to move in with a property they are managing. Unfortunately for us, we went ahead and paid for the house.(rent) On the day of collecting keys, I could not make it. I called to beg if they can give keys to the lead tenant who has already moved to the property with her stuff wanting to pick up keys. They refused because I was not there. They left her stranded. I promised to take any responsibility that comes with collecting keys. No buldging.Moreover communicating with them is unusually difficult, hard to pick calls. I wont recommend these kind of insensitive agents

Appalling disgraceful behaviour

Appalling disgraceful behaviour. They run a scam and I doubt they even have the properties they claim to have. Everyone seems to be offered “video viewings” and have been told the previous tenants are still currently there, that’s why.

Beyond unprofessional; like a school playground!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This estate agent is only interested in acting for the buyer, bending over backwards to help them, despite the fact clearly the seller was paying their fee! They do very little work to earn their commission; in fact less than average. They never answer the phone, it always goes to voicemail, no matter what time of day you telephone. They cancelled 10 block viewings because the buyer who first viewed the property demanded they did; well dodgy, because at the 12th hour, less than 24 hours before completion, Solicitor calls to say we need to sign a new contract as the buyer's name has changed!!!!!! Bridgfords failed on every count, did not keep me updated whatsoever, just constantly put pressure on as to when completion could take place, despite knowing from the outset I had to find another home to live in; demanded a survey after 3 months, despite saying buyer was a cash buyer and did not need one!!! I would not use Bridgfords ever again in any way, shape or form, and no way on God's earth would I recommend them, not even to my worst enemy!

Do not use this company

Do not use this company. We setup a viewing of a property which without any contact they did not attend. Since this time I have been called several times saying that I have requested a viewing of my property which I have never done and have regularly asked for my details to be removed from their database but keep receiving more calls.

Fantastic agency. I dealt with Bridgfords when looking for a new flat to rent. I was assisted with the viewing by Sophie and then James thereafter, both of whom were extremely helpful, polite and friendly. I've had poor experiences with letting agencies in the past, but I am delighted with the service at Bridgfords. Couldn't recommend highly enough.

I was persuaded to give management of…

I was persuaded to give management of my property to Bridgfords. As Landlord, I would expect from an agent to care for my property as much as I do. However, I did not receive this level of service from Bridgfords.Very poor customer service. One mistake after the other, to start, I was introduced tenants which one of them had a CCJ registered. However, the branch manager persuaded me to accept as they had a solid guarantor.Only 3 months after the tenancy started, rent seized. At first, I was sent an email with updates every week. Rent arrears continued to accumulate, however strangely the more rent was in arrears, the less I was updated with the situation.Due to Bridgfords not chasing the rent anymore, I had no other alternative but to outsource a debt collector, of course at my own cost. Shockingly, debt collection later found that the "solid guarantor" was an 85 year old pensioner which was not in a financial position to pay for the outstanding rent.Also, during our 12 months, Bridgfords was unable to gain access to perform a property inspection, despite myself contacting the tenants and agreeing on a date - however Bridgfords had an excuse for everything.Also, I requested some repairs to be done and they did not bother to find a contractor to do the work. Again giving me excuses that "the tenants are not responsive etc..." which is not true.I am now left alone dealing with disrepairs, a possession hearing, thousands of pounds in rent arrears and an estate agency that had decided to quit management rather than find solutions.I can not express my frustration, stress and a feeling that they simply did not care are the minimum about my property.This to me was unacceptable, if I were you I would think twice before giving your property to them.
