TrustpilotHastings branch what a joke I was…
Hastings branch what a joke I was phoned out of the blue offering a free valuation which I accepted then the problems started. I was offered a slot on Saturday 3rd April 11:00 with the valuer only to receive two text messages at the same time with an appointment of 10:45 and 11:30 after ringing there office the 11:00 was confirmed as correct only to receive a call a little while later to change the time to 12:00 so I said I will cancel the whole sorry affair only to get another text confirming my 12:00 appointment with a different valuer. How hard can it be to get something so simple right.
Dear Timothy, we are very sorry you have had this experience with one of our branches. we take all feedback very seriously and this has been passed on to the area management team who will deal with the office and improve the levels of service.All the best for the future Fox and Sons

I had a good experience buying a flat represented by Fox & Sons in Hastings. All the staff, especially Alex, Dan and Charles, were very reactive when I had queries per email or the phone and were very helpful in making sure tradespeople had access to the flat throughout the process when checks had to be done. They made the transition very easy.

TrustpilotThey just lie, also supported by management, despicable
had a viewing booked, no-one turned up. when i queried; agent stated was gone. They had left 2 messages to cancel, on a phone that doesn't have a messaging system. When i raised a complaint to head office, management just doubled down on this lie. They simply cannot be trusted.

TrustpilotDisappointing experience
Disappointing experience. Fox and Sons (and their parent company Sequence) have done a very poor job for us. Emails went unreplied, questions unanswered, very slow to do their jobs etc. After 5 months I threatened to pull out of the purchase and voila, they started to chase client and solicitors.

Stop advertising on right move as a ‘flat’ when it clearly is not and you can see it’s a studio very misleading and not what people want to see when looking come on fox and sons it’s clearly not difficult to get right

TrustpilotLuke Hallewell from Fox and Sons
We had Luke from Fox and sons in Hastings round to value our property and at the time he was very nice and knowledgeable. We had in total three agents round who all valued the property about the same. After this we had some conversations with all agents and decided not to go with Fox and sons as after speaking with people knew they advanced us of their very unpleasant experience with them.we Emailed Luke at Fox and Sons to say thank you for your time but we have decided to go another route , below is a copy of the response we got back from him.Notice all the exclamation marks and how he tries to make us feel guilty about going elsewhere !“ Good Morning, What’s the reason for going with another route? I have worked so hard to have given you the best fee anyone has ever had from a fox and sons even better than what my own sister was able to get!! To do this I had to have a long meeting about it with my area manager to get approved! We have the biggest reach in the town due to our offices across the UK and have the best client care set up in the town. I know you had two other agents out one is yet to sell a house over £375,000 this year so I wouldn’t go with them!!I keep getting clients of the other agent you had who claim to be the best in the town, calling me up to take the property on as they haven’t heard from them and been made to do viewings themselves!! They claim they are too busy this is due to them having to many properties to manage this can be seen as they are known for having the highest fall through rate as well. The route you have decide to take I hope works well for you but if you need my services in future once being on with another agent I won’t be able to get the fee lowered again. This is a shame as you had mentioned you would use us if we could do £6,500 including vat and I actually managed to get it to £6,000 including vat.

When Fox and Sons get your email and phone number, the harassment begins. I’ve asked them repeatedly to delete my data but they ‘archive’ it and then the phone calls and spam starts again.

TrustpilotThey were the worse letting agency
They were the worse letting agency that I have worked with, they don't report things from tenant to landlord and vice versa, they are just on the landlord side and not as a in between person to mediate, they don't do their work properly, are very unprofessional, avoid at all costs to work with this people, there are loads of letting agents to work with(Reviewed) One day after I posted this review, Fox & Sons decided to leave a review on google as I'm a tradesman and guess what, they rated me 1 star without having any contact with me in my area, just so you can see how unscrupulous and vengeful this people are, avoid! avoid! avoid! still haven't received my deposit after almost 2 months I left the house I rented through them

GoogleI would recommend Travis and Charles at Bexhill-On-Sea very highly, they are very friendly and professional, kept me updated at every step of the way. My property was on the market 2 weeks and sold, and it was completed in 7 weeks. If you are thinking of buying or selling a property you can’t beat this duo. Thank you guys.PositiveProfessionalism

TrustpilotI made the mistake of going with Fox and Sons, Bexhill
I made the mistake of going with Fox and Sons in May, and they turned out to be terrible. I dumped them and went with another estate agent. That would have been the end of it, and I wouldn't have left a bad review but... I specifically asked for them to remove my details from their system, and not receive any marketing. Low and behold, I started receiving marketing calls today. So, here's my review of them; Terrible photos, and I had to take my own high def' ones in the end, and even those, they managed to pixelate and screw up when they put them on the web. Even though I showed them round, they kept sending agents to viewings who hadn't been here before, and had no idea where anything was (a large sprawling property). They push all their own financial services and conveyancers, who are rubbish, and have numerous bad reviews on the internet. I had no idea who was in charge, or who I was dealing with from week to week, and they lied about their database of potential buyers. In any case, if I receive any more marketing calls from them I am reporting them to the police for harassment. Don't use them.

TrustpilotNo respect for GDPR
I made the mistake of calling to view a house with fox and sons. I then decided not to go ahead and have not stopped receiving calls or emails since. I have repeatedly asked to be taken off their contact lists and for them to delete my data from their records but to no avail

TrustpilotGDPR data breach
My property is for sale with another estate agent. Fox and Sons have my details as they were one of the agents I invited to make a valuation. I didn't mind them phoning a few months later asking if I would reconsider and use them. I politely declined and told them I would contact them if interested and under GDPR regulations remove my data from their records. They promised to do this but have phoned again. Is this a GDPR data breach? Probably..Will I use them after this latest call? No. Will I be rude and make a complaint about a data breach if they call again? Certainly. Pushy

GoogleEddy and the rest of the team at the Bexhill branch worked really hard, despite my continual phonecalls and a long chain of people in my sale process. Consistently friendly and helpful throughout. Very happy with the service provided, and would definitely turn to them when I am purchasing my next home.
Thank you for the fantastic 5* review and I would like to wish you the very best for the future. Kind regards, Lucy, Customer Relations.

Trustpilotif you are a buyer avoid them
Appalling service. I had an offer accepted on an apartment in early August and as of Sept 10 had still not heard from them. Phone calls and emails go unanswered. when I finally got one of them on the phone his reaction was the immortal words - well if you need to pull out then do that. If you are a buyer avoid them like the plague
5/5
GoogleI can not praise the team enough. Absolutely fantastic service both selling our property and purchasing. Every time we encountered an issue Eddy Tate and his team were instrumental in finding and delivering a solution, and more importantly keeping us updated with progress. I would highly recommend this very professional team.

TrustpilotThe Lords
Our overall experience was very positive, all members of staff were friendly & informative. It was always good to get feedback & on several occasions to chat to the viewers as they arrived to advise them on local amenities. We would recommend Fox & Sons Wintonfor advising us from the beginning to the end of the sale of our property. A special mention for Tom, for his professionalism.
“Thank you for your kind review, we were very happy to assist with the sale of your property and that you could move into your new home. It was always a pleasure catching up with you and ensuring the sale progressed at a consistent pace! Do let us know if we can be of any assistance in the future.”
Where the same review appears twice we show it once. We leave out reviews that name another agent or another of the brand's offices.
