TrustpilotJoke
Joke! Absolute joke! Just valued my house at 50k less than the previous co did a couple of months ago and since then we’ve had significant work done. Incidentally the valuation they came up with was only 25k more than we paid for it 14 years ago and it was literally just a stone shell. Like I say, total joke!

TrustpilotReally dissapointed with the service…
Really dissapointed with the service from these agents. Never come back to you on the phone with updates on the offer I made, rude on the phone and shoulting. I've been trying to arrange a viewing for 4 days which never hapen and in the end hanged up the phone on me. Waste of time 100%

GoogleAs a multi-landlord I have used multiple agents over the years however I feel the service delivered from Bairstow eves lettings to be the most professional and efficent of all agents I have used. From the first initial meeting, up to my tenant moving in, I was kept updated throughout the process and the whole process was hassle free. Would recommend to all landlords to use them.

TrustpilotThese guys are horrific
These guys are horrific. Messed us about moving in, messed us about while we lived here and now messing us about to make us leave, only 12 months in. Replied to a repairs request with an eviction notice, lie through their teeth about everything. Absolutely shocked at the level of quality here, expected more from connells.

TrustpilotI did their job for them
I recently sold my house through their Kingswood branch and did most of the work myself! I had to constantly chase them for feedback of viewings by going to their branch, as they ignored my emails. This was doubly frustrating as I was also being chased by competent estate agents for feedback of properties I viewed. I will never use them again.

TrustpilotOverall disappointment
Although this company provided what was contractually required, I was disappointed with the overall level of service.Following a complaint about an element of the service provided, our contractual relationship hit such a low point that the only remit left was arbitration via Ombudsman Services, via the published ADR scheme.Had I know what would have occurred, I would not have used this company in the first place.

TrustpilotAwful Customer Service
Rubbish customer service. Maintenance department awfulTook weeks to get anything sorted. Offered no forms of compensation for being without basic things like hot water for over a month. Made life extremely difficult for well over 8 months. was not even informed I had a new landlord until I rang them up and was told as an afterthought. DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY GO ELSWHERE

TrustpilotAwful
This company is just an embarrassment!!!!Absolutely ridiculous and pathetic how they treat people. Just ignoring every single company value. Even the complaint office has no idea how to sort out things and is just pointless. Constantly keep telling an untruth, making errors, breaching the contract and unlawfully holding your money.

TrustpilotIf I could give minus stars I would
If I could give minus stars I would. When you really need something, you might as well talk to the wall, they never call you back, they give bad advice then hide like the cowards they are. Worst company, DONT DO BUSINESS WITH THEM, UNLESS YOU CAN AFFORD TO LOSE TIME AND MONEY. they need to shut down to be honest.

TrustpilotRude rude rude
The ‘gentlemen’ who came round to do a survey was one of the rudest and arrogant individuals I’ve ever met. My partner and I were astonished. Luckily they were doing it on behalf of my lender so I’m not paying them a penny. If it wasn’t for that his attitude wouldn’t have even got him through the threshold.

TrustpilotMy son bought a property from connells…
My son bought a property from connells in Wolverhampton. Dishonest to say the least, failed to say the property had been rented, all meters removed due to dodgy dealings. Hence my son moved in with no services with 2 young children in tow. Please avoid these people dishonest is mildly put.

TrustpilotDidn’t turn up and denied any contact was made
Phoned me up and booked a survey. Told me they would contact me the day before with a 90 minute time slot. Booked the day off work. No contact no one turned up. When they were contacted they denied all knowledge of contact. Even though I’ve got the original call in my phone log. Very unprofessional.

TrustpilotVery bad experience
We dealt with the Exeter office in particular and it was shockingly bad service, no customer service, no communication, wouldn't take any responsible for their actions even when they were in the wrong which they were on numerous occasions. It was a really stressful and upsetting experience and one which I will never repeat, you have been warned!

TrustpilotAbsolutely dire
Absolutely dire. These people have zero expertise. They undervalued my home by about 60k after a 10 minute viewing. Didn't ask any questions. The house was 180k. We spent 75k massively revamping and extending, and these fools valued it at 190k, despite a much smaller house 2 doors up selling for 230k. Absolutely preposterous. Avoid at all costs.

TrustpilotOn behalf of BC Developments
On behalf of BC Developments, the Sleep Apnea Clinic Ltd, myself and Dr Coker, it is impossible to recommend this company in their capacity as estate agents, property management, valuation experts and auctioneers. We have been on the receiving end of their incompetence in all aspects. Please avoid.

TrustpilotThe worst company I have ever dealt with
Terrible. . Worst service no help with problems and when we moved out completely on landlords side when demanding 100% of deposit even though we had left condition the same. Items listed on inventory that did not come with property the reason. In the end gave up as stressing us out. No care given to the customer only landlords. Will never use again.

TrustpilotAwful
Awful. Do not use these guys to sell your house. I was actually told that they would not allow me to view property simply because I did not want them to send me further sales paraphernalia. If they were selling my house and I found out that they had turned away a cash buyer I would be furious. AVOID!

TrustpilotInsulting
Insulting, absolute clowns (estate agents words, not mine). Surveyed our property and valued it at 165k, even though we had 3 bids over 180k (181k and 2 at 186k). They have caused the collapse of the sale and the other bidders have moved on. I will not let them near our property again.
