Missing Keys & Missing estate agent

Today I was meant to be viewing a flat apartment building for rent via another online estate, but entwistle also had some affiliation towards the property, not only did they say that the building itself had already had a Tennant, which wasn't correct, the person who had the key for viewing the property wasn't even at the branch in question on that particular day. What kind of estate agents let's there estate agents waltz off with keys to the property when there were multiple viewings scheduled for the property that very day! This is my first time looking to rent a property, I will be staying far away from any properties advertised with an Entwhistle in future, they couldn't organise a chimps tea party never mind mind a housing & letting agency, I have found this episode to to be absolute champoluc disgrace, steer clear of them

Just stay away from this thieving…

Just stay away from this thieving company if you end the contract with them for 24 months you still have to pay them if you sell it yourself. it's in small print of contract that they make you sign. They are under different companies Countrywide. Go with honest Estate agents like Sapphire don't get ripped off. Don't find it the hard way. They promise more than other states agents but as their poor reviews you can see best thing you can do stay away from them.

Entwistle Green provided me and my partner with excellent customer service. Our estate agent was very friendly and quick to respond to our inquiries and went out of her way to ensure our move went successfully. I would definitely recommend this company!PositiveProfessionalism

If I could give this company a minus 10…

If I could give this company a minus 10 I would. Stay away from this company it is nothing but bad news. We had a leak since December and other things started to go wrong shortly after. It took more than 7 months to get any repairs done although they had 4 months to do repairs prior to the lockdown. During the lockdown they did not reply to a single email of ours until we sent a letter to the landlord saying that we are leaving. When the landlord received this letter than the bells started ringing. We have wanted to leave early due to the poor service from both landlord and lettings agency but they’re not letting us. Instead we can only leave on their terms and not ours. The team are extremely manipulating and misleading. True con artists.

As a landlord i will rate it as Worst…

As a landlord i will rate it as Worst experience. I was on fully managed contract with Entwistle and noticed after few months that I was being charged deposit maintenance fee. When I rang and checked i was told its a standard fee that they charge to maintain deposit even when i have signed up for zero deposit scheme with my tenant. I was told the charges are correct and non refundable. I had to raise a complaint and then those charges were refunded. I had decided to leave Entwistle after end of my contract when I received the invoice for June month and noticed I have been charged CRL exclusive tax. As per their terms and conditions the charge is applied if i ask them to provide the statement for my annual returns which i never asked. My friend is also with Entwistle and he also noticed the same charge applied. Entwistle is refusing to refund those charges even when its wrongly charged. So i wonder how many landlords have been wrongly charged with such charges. Real poor experience and would not recommend. After weeks waiting for a response for my complaint I have been told that they have sent an initial response and if I need to appeal then I need to email customer care manager for final response and then I can take it to ombudsman. I am already in process of contacting ombudsman as I cant wait any longer for customer care manager to come back to me.

Worst estate agent I have ever used

Worst estate agent I have ever used. I would not recommend this company. First of all check your contract period. We were locked in for 24 weeks. This is completely disheartening when you don't have many viewings or offers. The initial meeting was wonderful and the lady from Leyland Helen who came filled me with the upmost confidence. After this, the whole process became a disheartening mess. The rest of the branch hadn't a clue what was going on. I received very little feedback from viewings. The only offer we had was when Helen did the viewing, is she the only person working? They told our buyers one set of lies and didn't bother to communicate with us. For the £2700 we paid, I would look elsewhere for somewhere cheaper and with a more personal touch.

very poor will not do their duties

very poor will not do their duties. My daughter had mice in the flat and they refused to take any action even though it is the landlords responsibility. i had to deal with these mice at my own cost!! they do not act on concerns as her front security door has been broken for sometime, they admitted to knowing about this for sometime and had been reported by previous tenants but again had failed to take any action. this poor service compromises the flat security, AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE DO NOT USE THIS SHODDY COMPANY

Just an awful company

Just an awful company. My property was listed with 'zero deposit, no fees' and it was quite the opposite. My parents had to help me scrape together nearly £700 in extra fees, they even tried to charge me £300 extra on top of that, but I queried what it was for. They didn't bat an eyelid as they took that off my invoice. It felt very much like they had tried to get an extra £300 off me. 'zero deposit' is the name of the company that you need to pay a percentage of your rent to, in order to get the property. This was around £150, and I'll never get that back. The way it was listed on the website was purposely misleading. I've had several issues with my property, and they couldn't care less. Even adding another tenant has cost me £50, but because they put it down as 'admin fees' they can get away with it. It's illegal.I'll never use these ever again. Lying, scamming bunch.

my experience as a buyer started off…

my experience as a buyer (Bowood Street) started off very positively but once my offer was accepted a completely different experience. Bully shouting and aggression. It first started when they were contacting my solicitor!! secondly the reaction to the survey was astounding. I raised 4 major/significant concerns that needed to be discussed with the Seller what happened next was shocking - the way they spoke/shouted at me was unbelievable and showed a complete lack of respect for myself or the seller. As a result of this attitude I have withdrawn my offer and will not deal with Entwistle Green again.I feel sorry for the seller. Keep away from Entwistle Green and be careful if dealing with Daniel.

Friendly and helpful service

I wanted to buy a property in Bury which was on sale through the local branch. I did not proceed with the purchase in the end, due to the legal side (which was set up by the vendors). However, I was very pleased with the friendly help and interest given by the staff at the branch, and felt I wasn't just a number with them. I would certainly be happy to deal with them again, and hopefully next time the deal will go through.

I sold my house with Entwistle Green within 1 week of it going on the market. Regular progress updates from the office proved very useful and allowed me to smoothly manage the sale of my property along with my new purchase. Top service! Thanks to the team at Entwistle Green!

fantastic service good communication professional and friendly

woukd just like to mention the fantastic service we have received from Entwistle green walton vale. Liz and Stephen have been excellent. They were honest with us about the sale of our property but left us in control of decisions eg asking price, offers etc.. they were really and efficient and communicated well with us about viewings feedback etc.. and always pleasant and friendly too. Would highly recommend. We have bought and sold a few houses over the last few years and dealt with a few estate agents and found these to be the best.

Breaching government rules and standards

Viewed a home we liked. Called the estate agent a day after to put in an offer! They refused to put the offer forward with us first seei4their financial adviser to offer us other products and services, away from our chosen bank mortgage, which was already in place! We refused to take an interview with thier advisor, so they refused to put our offer forward 3x. We took advice on this matter and found out it was illegal and against government standards to refuse to put an offer forward to the seller. So we called the agent a final time and warned them they were breaking the law by refusing to put our offer forward without seeing them first. They told us they were country wide and this wss their policy, and not in breach of government standards or rules. So we gave them 3 hour to put the offer forward or we walk away and report them. We went to Two banks gor advice on this law and two other estate agents , they all said the estate agent was only trying to push us into selling us their products and services and also, if we had sat with their inhouse financial advisers, they would know what our position was and could pushed for more money on the sale, to up their incomes. We were shocked how this company was dealing with us, so much so the we advice no one to use them as they and breaching all uk rules and pushing false info on first time buyers.

Awful

Awful! When selling I specifically asked to not show people round myself but they could rarely make viewings, one time just before a viewing they said the person that had my keys was in another town and just wasn't going to make it back so I had to show the viewers round myself with 3 children in tow, not the easiest! BUT the reason I would NEVER use them again is because a neighbour wanted to buy the house (she was renting but looking to buy in the same area) she booked an appointment through Entwisle Green because I didn't want to do viewings (in the end I did because they were unavailable... again) We didn't sell the house in our time limit (to do with schools) Then the neighbour approached me again after that time with a better offer which we accepted. After the sale went through with her they charged me £2,000 for 'introducing us'!!!! They hadn't introduced us, we had already met, we only booked an appointment time through them because that's what they told me to do. We arranged all the sale ourselves, they had no dealings with it whatsoever. We refused to pay but then threats of court came so we was pressured to pay, it'll take us years to pay in instalments because that's all we can afford

The worst company I've ever used

The worst company I've ever used, completely useless, we are in the process of selling our house, it was in fact sold within one week, very good we thought, but now four months later we have just had another letter telling us they have lost or not received paperwork we have now sent to them four times, the last one by registered post. Please don't go through what we have, use a reputable estate agents, any but not these clowns.

Entwistlegreen lettings is the worst estate agency I came across so far! Avoid!

Entwistlegreen to sign me up without my consent to Spark Energy before moving into a new property. Spark Energy pays Entwistlegreen estate a commission for signing up new tenants to Spark Energy and a ongoing fee from their monthly bill and that is causing their prices to be so high. It takes a least around six weeks to switch from them but you will end up paying for six weeks like you where paying for six months on different provider. I really think this is a scam and spoke with my solicitor and looks like Entwistlegreen has broken the law. Both scamming companies should be avoided as they work together to scam people. Also if you are a tenant bear in mind that you will never get your deposit back. Avoid this scammers.

Horrendous scam tactics

Wanted to rent a property, the first attempt they didn't show up, no call or anything, the second attempt they did show up however 10 other people showed up. They clearly tried to huddle everyone together to try and create a panic rent and were asking for things like 100% annual rent up front. Absolutely horrendous felt so angry

Promote Gazumping

The agent accepts an offer and then puts on the listing that anyone hoping submit a higher offer before exchange, while a buyer is completing conveyancing, should be ashamed.Why would you trust them either as a buyer or seller?

Do NOT trust under any circumstances!!

I have been trying to get my £650 deposit back from these liars for 30 days!! They repeatedly blame the landlord (a personal friend of mine) for the delay in not returning MY money. My advice to anyone would be AVOID THIS COMPANY!! They cannot be trustedUPDATE: It took 11 weeks and the threat of legal action to get my deposit back. They then offered me £50 “goodwill gesture” for the appalling service and guess what ........ over 6 weeks later still no £50!!!!!!!
