Awful Service

Terrible service, rude and constant lies.There's a reason the Trustpilot is currently below 2 stars.

I cannot recommend connells enough. The whole process has been seamless from buying a new home and selling ours. Liam especially has always been there for any questions we have and nothing is too much trouble. Definitely 5 star service

Liam Kerr

Liam Kerr, from Bicester connells, was incredible, he was very diligent to his job and went above and beyond for us! Really appreciate all your hard work.

SHOCKINGLY POOR

Just glad I didn't sell through them (their Basingstoke branch anyway). Whilst trying to view properties I spoke to several male staff and found them to be unhelpful to say the least. They came across as jack the lad cowboys, who couldn't be bothered to return calls. I could say lots more but there's little point. Having reviewed the other negative feedback they've received it appears that they don't take notice. BEWARE SELLERS, AVOID THIS LOT

Found the Filton office closed (Covid) sign on the door explained and left a phone number. I phoned the office number and could hear it ringing from outside. I could also see someone at his desk. He obviously had something better to do than answer the phone. Not the people I want to do business with. Didn’t even phone me back. Will not waste my time here again.

Worst estate agent ever dealt with

Worst estate agent ever dealt with. (Plymouth) Was pleasant before I rented a property, seemed friendly and from the moment I had the keys, they were shocking. Poor service, could never get hold of the letting agent and when I did, I would have to wait almost a week for a reply... and the amount of information they pass on is absolutely disgraceful. Avoid if you can

We had a young gentleman by the name of Callum from Balgores Basildon help us through all aspects of selling our property and this young man knows his stuff, I've never been a big fan of estate agents (sorry) but Callum has changed my mind …

I put my late parents house on the market with Balgores. I needed an estate agent that was prepared to go the extra mile as I live 150 miles away. The sale turned out to be problematic due to issues with the will and probate. …

Worst estate agent ever

Worst estate agent ever. Wish I had read the reviews before using them.They gave me ad advice as to how to market the property and gave meno feedback on viewings I had to chase them all the time.The property only sold when I ignored their advice. They admitted they only tell clients part of the feedback. The only thing they were efficient at was presenting a bill for appalling service AVOID THIS AGENCY

Put a bid on a house

Put a bid on a house. Went to best and final offers. Subsequently found out despite bidding £10,000 more than other party and in better circumstances (no chain, mortagage agreed etc) we lost out. Turns out it was due to estate agents knowing the other buyers and wanting to give them a cheaper sale. Lied to seller about our circumstances to m to approve other buyer. Cowboys stay clear

bad customer experience

They do not update the status of the properties on the website and other platforms. Wasted my time enquiring unavailable properties. Nearly all of the property I enquired were no longer available. Also I think it is dishonest that they said the price written was for an unfurnished apartment, yet on the website said the apartment is furnished.

I’m so glad I’m not the owner of this branch the closed sign is on the front door and the two staff that are working are sitting on there mobile phones, just walked passed 1 hour later and still on her mobile phone texting, very productive office. I would suggest who’s in charge of paying these staff start tracking there hours of no productive work

No Enthusiasm

My son is looking for his first home to buy. He called Connell repeatedly about a flat he was interested in and they didn’t make much effort to call him back or set anything up. In the end I had to call and arrange a viewing.Son and his dad went on the viewing. The agent was very halfhearted and didn’t show any enthusiasm about the property. Very underwhelmed.

Used Balgores to buy our first property with the help of Callum who was great from start to finish. Professional and great customer service. Without him we wouldn’t have got our property! Thankyou so much, will use Balgores when we decide to sell!
